Zeus did not give us a brain so we could spin.

That reprehensible Bolshevik gang of Red Guard propagandists, the Southern Poverty Law Center, made no claims whatsover about religious terrorism worldwide in time of war, or sectarian strife and tribal warfare in foreign countries, or attacks by foreigners on American or European targets, or otherwise water down or pad figures to skew the debate and distract us ftom the issue: that US right wing terror is a problem and its getting worse, while left-wing terror is practically non-existent. We do not have Socialist skinheads or militias or Klans.

SPLC catalogued right-wing terrorism in the USA since the Oklahoma bombing, which is exactly what you originally pooh-pooed in your initial poisonous little screed. Perhaps you might like to counter it with a list of left wing terrorist actions in the same time period and geographical area. That might be more convincing.

You cannot cavalierly dismiss the reporting that totally refutes your inital assumptions simply because you don't like its source, they bring up figures inconvenient to you, or because they represent views embarassing to your ideology.

Your skills at twisting the truth to coincide with your politics has already been established, but that's all you've been able to accomplish so far with your little pie chart. There has been no left wing terrorism in the USA even remotely close to the list SPLC compiled, not even at the height of the Weather Underground/Black Panther activity back in the 60s and 70s. If there had been, I'm sure you would have published it. All those thousands that died in Muslim-on-Muslim violence in the middle east or Al-Quaeda attacks in the West are irrelevant to this discussion, which is precisely why you include them. Muslim extremists, regardless of how barbaric they are, are not leftists.

For you, "anti-government" is now "patriotic". So you make excuses for the fascist barbarians in our country who terrorize our citizens. Shame on you. Shame.
