also >implying radial islam isn't "far-right"
Dunno how that's similar to the actual skinheads they've cited selewhere
"The terrorist threat in the United States is almost entirely homegrown, as no foreign terrorist organization has successfully directed and orchestrated an attack in the United States since 9/11,"
Yeah, it only took ONE incident to change that balance
per capita islamic terrorism is probably worse
```“If you include the death totals from 9/11 in such a calculation, then there have been around 62 people killed in the United States by Islamic extremists for every one American killed by a right wing terrorist,” Holt stated in his analysis.```
well duh
```Secondly, it did not factor in extraordinary security measures, such as the Patriot Act and the Holtcreation of Homeland Security, put in place after 9/11 that prevented a large number of attempted attacks by Islamic terrorists on American soil.```
i'm not sure if the best point he could've made here is imply that homeland security is completely incompetent at stopping right-wing terrorism
They have the same goals as white nationalists
ONE islamic terrorist killed 49 people in a single incident, but it took 14 years for "far right" "terrorism" to approach the same figure
And I'm supposed to consider Islamic terrorism LESS of a threat?
What a surprise, after a massive Islamic terrorism attack, strict defense policies are put into place to try to stop more Islamic terrorism attacks. This retard thinks that, since fewer attacks happened after that, it means that Islamic terrorists aren't a threat.
They've killed more people in less incidents
Dude, it's exactly the opposite.
Except the TSA has never prevented anything
Underwear bomber
Not one to defend TSA, but still.
Gotta give it to em you do something you do it right
Their value is also mostly deterrence, rather than active prevention
The TSA will always end up killing more people than it will ever save
@Edgy_Username Exactly, am I supposed to consider a bunch on unrelated skinheads committing armed robbery a serious national threat?
Know why?
the entire point is that you wouldn't find out if they did prevent something from happening

9/11 is obviously a massive outlier
Because people are more likely to drive rather than fly now which is statistically much more dangerous.
when am I gonna see white nationalists flying crop dusters into corn silos???
@Deleted User So the TSA should regulate motor transport now?
holy shit, @Deleted User , do you have any idea of the implications of having that loose of a standard for responsibility
Unintended consequences
@Sue✨ Yeah, it's such an outlier we fought a bunch of stupid wars over it, it was a pretty big deal. Over a thousand people died because we upset some rich saudi cunt with religious pull
They are not worth the $7 billion
That's why people don't include 9/11 in these "far right attacks have killed more than islam" meme-tier infographs, because it makes the graph so damn big you can't even see the far right deaths
Airlines could handle their own security much better
right, but i think the studies hooty posted earlier were more talking about the frequency of how often your standard terrorist attack happens and who commits them, putting 9/11 in there defeats the purpose
I do not trust airlines to handle my luggage, let alone my security
do you think there'd be less incidents without security
@Sue✨ I'm pretty sure the "point" was to say that islam has somehow killed less
Well it's really hard to get jihadits on planes anymore so yeah homegrown terrorism happens more often
Unless it's the UK of course
@Deleted User I'd imagine so, but it's impossible to prove
Where I'm scared to be edgy incase the SAS invade my house
