And so am I, more killed by Islamic terrorists, than by right wing extremists. (from your link)

"Forgets about 9/11"? Wouldn't that be our current president who embraces whatever the country that the majority of 9/11 attackers were from does, including some pretty awful stuff involving U.S. residents?

"Most of the attacks were carried out by far-right violent extremists. But more people died during attacks connected with Islamic jihadist extremists."

Most of the attacks, just as I thought.

So the remaining third is just to be ignored. Got it.
We did something in the days/years following, such as enhanced screening, taking shoes off at the airport etc. What have we done about white nationalists stocking up on assault rifles and high-capacity magazines?
This is the same bullshit that was peddled in the 1990s -- when it was my job to follow it. It was untrue then, and it's equally untrue now. Most of it -- then and now -- is based exaggerated data created specifically for the purpose of raising funds by one organization, featured, interestingly enough, in the "feel good story of the year!"
What exaggerated data are you talking about? I never cited any "data" per-se........I don't think that "enhanced screening" and increased security implemented post-9/11 is an exaggeration. Neither is it that we still allow purchase of high-capacity magazines in most placed in the country. We reacted forcefully after one event (as we rightly should) but not after another regardless of the perpetrator, white nationalists or Jihadists (although the former is more likely to resort to this sort of modus operandum)

Sorry. I assumed that when you wrote about "white nationalists stocking up on assault rifles and high-capacity magazines" that you actually thought that white nationalists are stocking up on assault rifles and high-capacity magazines.

Turns out neither I nor you knows what you're talking about.

You seem to have conveniently forgotten which country the 9/11 attackers were from, because your president loves him some dictators from that country who torture and slaughter American journalists.

Good point. Because the plural of anecdote IS data.

There's no such thing as white nationalism. It's just a white country.
