    The big problem is there are a LOT more than just 3 assaults, 1 bombing, and one arson. Hell, I listed more then that in previous posts in this thread. Since it has been pointed out to you previously and you continue saying that I can only conclude you are deliberately attempting to minimize right wing domestic terrorism.

    I can't minimize something that according to your own link was virtually nonexistent last year.

    Now, if you want to go back years, and throw in the OKC bombing and three or four people killed at abortion clinics..............then I'm afraid I will suggest going back further to the 70s and 60s and throwing in all the LEFT WING domestic terrorism.

    For that matter, if you want to amp up the incidents of "right wing domestic violence" by going back DECADES, then we might as well go back decades and total up all the incidents of terrorism by foreign jihadists over that period as well.

    And while we're at it, let's not leave out contemporary left-wing domestic terrorism such as is employed by groups like the Animal Liberation Front, the Weather Underground and others.

    Ohhhhh, but let's all remember, now, children, that it's only domestic terrorists fighting against an increasingly overreaching and authoritarian Federal government that we should fear and hate.

    I think we need to focus on all the crimes committed by the Occupy movement.

    Oh, no no no! Those are "unfortunate side effects of a righteous struggle", remember.

    Holy crap! Actual documentation!

    The sex crimes, arson and assaults are inexcusable (assuming they actually happened). The people who perpetrated them should be treated as any other criminal would be. Public disturbance as civil disobedience is as old as the hills.

    But come on. Illness isn't a crime. Suicide isn't a crime. "Nonsense at Burger King" isn't a crime.

    Occupy didn't commit these crimes. People did.

    Or do we want to start tarring all gun owners as criminals because of the actions of a few?

    "all gun owners" aren't gathering together in parks and shitting in public. Try again.

    And all Occupy members aren't committing crimes.

    Seems were at an impasse.

    Ya know, being it right wing or left wing, it happens. Neither extremist side can lay claim to the high road.

    Doesn't seem that way to Skin at all, since the percentage of criminality for gun owners is hovering somewhere around .0001% of the percentage of criminality for Occupy protesters.

    Yep. But to define the whole side by the ultra extreme as our OP did is dumb. As the OP is.

    I didn't say they are not any Right wing Terrorist I know in the woods all over America are buck tooth buffoons in camo,building shelters and hording food with their guns at their side ready for the coming race wars and some very small bunch of them are trying to jump start those wars...

    Now what I am saying is they are not as great a threat as your hoping people will think they are as are the Leftest terror groups like ELF and Alf far less a threat then Middle East backed Terrorism.

    Do you have a link to a main stream source not known for constantly lying about everything?

    Incidents against abortion providers are incredibly unfortunate, but no, can't say I see an overwhelming rise of right wing terrorism here either. To take that into account, you'd need to prove that there was a significant uptick in activity - and in the case of abortion providers, that would mean based on the almost non-existent numbers now that the previous level would have to be zero. Pretty self defeating.

    It seems more a reaction to the fact that the Republican party has organized to go after women's rights areas - those that the far left worship and the moderates accept and/or endorse. It's political suicide by the right, but painting it as an uptick in violent extremism is simply bullshit. Attacks here have been political, and there's no current trend to indicate that means that it is associated with an upswing in violence, no matter what narrative the democratic party wants to paint.

    Given the socially conservative, hardline religious views of Muslim terrorists, wouldn't their attacks also be considered right-wing terrorism ... just not always the domestic kind?

    Considering how permissive the Left is toward Sharia law, shouldn't leftist violence be considered right-wing terrorism by that same logic?
