Homegrown Extremists Tied to Deadlier Toll Than Jihadists in U.S. Since 9/11

WASHINGTON — In the 14 years since
Al Qaeda carried out attacks on New York and the Pentagon, extremists have regularly executed smaller lethal assaults in the United States, explaining their motives in online manifestos or social media rants.


But the breakdown of extremist ideologies behind those attacks may come as a surprise. Since Sept. 11, 2001, nearly twice as many people have been killed by white supremacists, antigovernment fanatics and other non-Muslim extremists than by radical Muslims: 48 have been killed by extremists who are not Muslim, including the recent mass killing in Charleston, S.C., compared with 26 by self-proclaimed jihadists, according to a count by New America, a Washington research center.

A 2009 report by the Department of Homeland Security, which warned that an ailing economy and the election of the first black president might prompt a violent reaction from white supremacists.


The contentious question of biased perceptions of terrorist threats dates back at least two decades, to the truck bombing that tore apart the federal building in Oklahoma City in April 1995. Some early news media speculation about the attack assumed that it had been carried out by Muslim militants. The arrest of Timothy J. McVeigh, an antigovernment extremist, quickly put an end to such theories.

The bombing, which killed 168 people, including 19 children, remains the second-deadliest terrorist attack in American history, though its toll was dwarfed by the roughly 3,000 killed on Sept 11.

“If there’s one lesson we seem to have forgotten 20 years after Oklahoma City, it’s that extremist violence comes in all shapes and sizes,” said Dr. Horgan, the University of Massachusetts scholar. “And very often, it comes from someplace you’re least suspecting.”

Ferguson effect'? Chicago crime spike tells local story


Chicago is one of several cities seeing a spike in violent crime. But local factors, not national trends, seem to be driving the increase.


Chicago — For the last three months, Chicago artist Garland Martin Taylor has been driving around the country with a 380-pound stainless steel gun sculpture in the back of his pickup truck. Called “Conversation Piece,” the sculpture is engraved with the names of children who have been killed by gun violence in the neighborhoods surrounding his South Side home.

“There needs to be a monument to this, because it’s like an epidemic,” he said this weekend in an interview at his Chicago studio. “The gun is like any other war memorial.”

In many ways, it is a memorial to Chicago’s recent crime spike. Last month, Chicago saw its deadliest September in 13 years. The murder rate is up 21 percent from last year.

Recommended: Infographic Crime falls in the US. Are you safer today?
The rise in violent crime has been mirrored in several major cities across the United States, such as Milwaukee, Baltimore, Houston, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Atlanta. Some of the possible influences could be similar, such as tensions between police and minority communities or the supposed “Ferguson effect” of police patrolling streets less aggressively for fear of being a part of the next scandal.


'Ferguson effect'? Chicago crime spike tells local story
 
Your self revelation of bigotry is quite eye popping. You lump any white person as beig a Christian which is far from the truth.

What we see with chrsitian denominations is not a preaching of hate or killing or nothing like that. Because if we did we would see more abortion clinics targetted instead of the realitively few.

But that does not stop you from your bigotry against whites and Christitans. It doesn't take much of a search to find a Muslim Imam preached death to America. And we are not talking some fringe group but groups with large followings.

Open you eyes and look at the conflicts in the world and see for yourself. The vast majority involve Muslims. From the Palisitinians to ISIS. Death follows the religion like no other. Christianity grew out of the violence centuries ago, Islam sitll has a way to go.
