I was looking for evidence of Jazz's assertion that right wing violence is on the rise. A little dated but here is what I found:

Over the past decade, attackers motivated by right-wing political ideologies have committed dozens of shootings, bombings and other acts of violence, far more than any other category of domestic extremist, according to a Washington Post analysis of data on global terrorism. While the data show a decades-long drop-off in violence by left-wing groups, violence by white supremacists and other far-right attackers has been on the rise since Barack Obama’s presidency — and has surged since President Trump took office.

You must have accidentally forgot to read this part
members of a volunteer militia, which calls itself the New Mexico Civil Guard. The group has been a regular and heavily armed sight at recent Black Lives Matter protests


"some people" mmmmm yeah, some people alright.

Must be more New Mexico Hispanics.

Per ADL report on Murder and Extremism in the United States, 2019 (released Feb. 2020), last year would have been a record low for extremist murders but for the shooting spree at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas, in August, which left 22 people dead.
Domestic Extremist Related Killings (per ADL report):
2015: 70
2016: 76
2017: 41 (Trump Presidency begins)
2018: 53
2019: 42

In the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, Dan Gregory fell to the ground, shot in the shoulder, after he attempted to stop a black Honda Civic headed toward a group of protesters, he said.


We all seen that video and that WaPo description is pure bullshit. In reality he attacked the driver, tried to punch him through the open window and only then was shot. You can't just punch people for slowly "heading toward a group of protesters" - it's illegal. The driver was dark-skinned, btw, and there is no information wrt his political leanings.

Oh I see.

What happened to your great "we?"


Nothing happened to our great "we": tens of thousands of us saw the video. Check the youtube counter for exact number.

Sorry your attempt to drum up some fake right-wing violence has failed so miserably.

Uh oh jazz... That keeps happening to me on tripadvisor this week. Apparently Hawaiians don't like being told they are dumb lazy ignorant assholes that should quit bitching and make use of that nice University we put there for them.

In factless jazz world, hes a right wing white supremacist. Exactly like all those KKK organized car attacks... Those arent just scared civilians getting out with their lives from rabid crowds of violent rioters. Nope. Those are right wing rabble rousers

Nobody’s got any links to proud boys attacks?

Nobody’s got any links to Boogaloo attacks?

Of course not, they didn’t happen.


Exactly. Stop inventing shit.

Look at the bright side, left wing violence has been on the decline the past 2 weeks, since they were trying to burn down every fucking city we have prior to that.

incidents all over the country involving violence and proud boys


Almost every proud boy "incident" is a street fight against a violent antifa. Proud Boys are a crude bunch. They are however neither terrorists nor criminals. Antifa, otoh, will be classified as terrorists...yet NONE of their incidents are recorded in the GTD to which all your fake news links.

The GTD is a hilarious example of Washpo lie list style fake news. Step 1) start with 200k annual violent crimes in USA. Step 2) Selectively choose 50 of the 200k violent crimes from your chosen slander group. Step 3) sprinkle in 100 non-criminal "reports" from wanna be jussie smollets. Step 4) Report the 100 to 200 incidents per year as scientific "proof" of terrorism within your political opponents. Step 5) Hand these "reports" to useful idiots to parrot with zero research.

I found a 16 year old school shooter they classified a "white supremacist" terrorist. LOLZ. The evidence?: https://www.start.umd.edu/gtd/search/IncidentSummary.aspx?gtdid=201805180023 "05/18/2018: An assailant opened fire at Santa Fe High School in Santa Fe, Texas, United States. At least 10 people, including students and teachers, were killed and 14 people, including the assailant, were injured in the attack. Additionally, fake explosive devices were discovered in and around the school. An unaffiliated individual, identified as Dimitrios Pagourtzis, claimed responsibility for the incident. Sources noted that Pagourtzis was interested in Nazism and fascism and had recently posted pictures of German nationalist symbols and a picture of him wearing a T-shirt stating "born to kill" on social media."

Of course the classifiers completely ignored the hammer and sickle also found along with every other dark angsty teen symbol known. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-44173960 "The Communist hammer and sickle pin, he said, stood for "rebellion", and a depiction of the idol Baphomet symbolised "Evil"." Nope, this hammer and sickle wearing 17 year old crazy kid is obviously a product of white supremacy terrorism.

Theres no more escuse for believing the lies. Idiots.

There is the useful idiot machine.

The right wing has this hate media frying their little vestigial brains riling them up against people who want to see the GOP go away forever.

Right wing has their militia training camps, including worship of Hitler and violence as a philosophy, there's your satanic warrior posers. They have their little parades and hate festivals. You got bigots against both muslims, immigrants and hispanics who feel that all those categories represent existential threats and you have websites, cable TV, radio and announcers taking advantage of all of them.

best part of this article is how left wing burned down a huge chunk of America. And the only article WP made is "right wing attacks on the rise". They are not there for America, they are a leftist wing rag.

https://www.salon.com/2020/06/17/how-and-why-fox-news-is-encouraging-right-wing-vigilante-violence-toward-protesters/

While the majority of the violence against peaceful protesters at Black Lives Matter demonstrations has been orchestrated by police, there's also been a troubling side trend of increasing right-wing vigilantism against protesters. In city after city — and even in small towns — Donald Trump's faithful are shooting protesters, hitting them with cars, or, in one case, attacking protesters with a chainsaw. Add to that multiple situations where self-appointed "patrols" of armed conservatives have shown up at demonstrations to threatened protesters, claiming they are responding to the threat of imaginary antifa violence. It's spiraled so far out of control that even people who have taken no part i...


Really stretching it there. CNN fear mongering is hard. People defending themselves from rioters are now called right wing. Yeah those pregnant mothers are so right wing trying to get away from 6 black gangsters pointing guns at them.

Left are just assholes.

“We’re going to see a diversity of fringe malefactors,”


You know they've already arrested perhaps hundreds of rioters. So far, pretty much all leftist extremists and criminal opportunists.

I dont doubt the right wing extremists are attracted to this chaos. Theres simply FAR fewer of them and this isnt their crowd. Your "right wing violence" articles are desperate attempts to blame anyone other than the guilty.

The very first day of protests in NYC involved the public throwing all kinds of crap at the cops. Molotov Cocktails, Bricks, Rocks, Fireworks. Let me guess, the cops (who are prevented from pretty much doing anything) were the instigators right?

The right-wing violence gaslighting applies a few tricks. 1) classifying black or leftist crime as non-terrorist or gang violence -- you wont find antifa or a black disciple/ mexican mafia ex-con attacking a white in the terrorist database BUT if some white ex con w a gang (all prison gangs are racial based) attacks someone ITS FAR RIGHT TERROR w total disregard for the motivation. So basically white crime is terror while black crime is just crime 2) school shooters are often classified as right wing for the most silly reasons. The cuban kid in FL apparently made racist comments on social (oh noes, a murderer was ALSO A RACIST!) BUT a 40 year old black supremacist BLM supporter murders 5 cops at a protest and doesnt make the terror database. 3) muslim extremists are often considered religious conservatives and thus...right wing according to these fake news databases 4) anyone who is racist or anti-semitic is considered right wing and added to the stats as such 5) self reported racist name-calling and hate speech scrawled in chalk against minorities gets added to the terror database.

Add these up what do you get? In total for 2018 I saw about 200 incidents in terror database, probably half of the nonviolent self reporting type. It takes selective bias TO THE EXTREME to create the fake news stats to support: RIGHT WING VIOLENCE ON THE RISE!!!!! OMG orange man bad
