You are the THIRD fool to conflate everday murders with murders motivated by political extremism.450 murders total over 10 years according to an unreliable source. Let's see, Chicago with about 1% of America handily tops that on an annual basis.
Must be those right-wing guys with the MAGA hats that attacked Jussie Smollette.
100 Years of Communism—and 100 Million DeadLol the leftist extremists are responsible for 18 murders? You got to be fucking kidding me
BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!They love the word CONFLATE It is a pro's propaganda vocabulary word used constantly at the high levels of media spew. Whenever you see this word begin to understand you are not just dealing with a single poster. You are dealing with talking points pros who get their stuff from prepared sources.
The Right’s Violence Problem
Over the past decade, the Anti-Defamation League has counted about 450 U.S. murders committed by political extremists.
Of these 450 killings, right-wing extremists committed about 75 percent. Islamic extremists were responsible for about 20 percent, and left-wing extremists were responsible for 4 percent.
Nearly half of the murders were specifically tied to white supremacists.

It’s important to emphasize that not all extremist violence comes from the right — and that the precise explanation for any one attack can be murky, involving a mixture of ideology, mental illness, gun access and more. In the immediate aftermath of an attack, people are sometimes too quick to claim a direct cause and effect. But it is also incorrect to pretend that right-wing violence and left-wing violence are equivalent problems.

If you talk to members of Congress and their aides these days — especially off the record — you will often hear them mention their fears of violence being committed against them.
Some Republican members of Congress have said that they were reluctant to vote for Trump’s impeachment or conviction partly because of the threats against other members who had already denounced him. House Republicans who voted for President Biden’s infrastructure bill also received threats. Democrats say their offices receive a spike in phone calls and online messages threatening violence after they are criticized on conservative social media or cable television shows.
People who oversee elections report similar problems. “One in six election officials have experienced threats because of their job,” the Brennan Center, a research group, reported this year. “Ranging from death threats that name officials’ young children to racist and gendered harassment, these attacks have forced election officials across the country to take steps like hiring personal security, fleeing their homes, and putting their children into counseling.”

At the rally that preceded the Jan. 6 attack, Representative Mo Brooks suggested the crowd should “start taking down names and kicking ass.” Before she was elected to Congress, Marjorie Taylor Greene supported the idea of executing Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and other top Democrats. Representative Paul Gosar once posted an animated video altered to depict himself killing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and swinging swords at Biden.
[snip]
There is often overlap between these violent threats and white supremacist beliefs. White supremacy tends to treat people of color as un-American or even less than fully human, views that can make violence seem justifiable. The suspect in the Buffalo massacre evidently posted an online manifesto that discussed replacement theory, a racial conspiracy theory that Tucker Carlson promotes on his Fox News show.
It is far past time for Republican leadership to shut down the violent and ignorant rhetoric coming from their ranks. As Liz Cheney says, "“History has taught us that what begins with words ends in far worse."

Dead is dead. You're the idiot that thinks some lives matter more than others.You are the THIRD fool to conflate everday murders with murders motivated by political extremism.
What the hell is wrong with you people?
Did you actually think the ADL is saying there have only been 450 murders in the US in the past ten years? You are actually THAT retarded?!?!?

Even today they are denying that the shooter over the weekend was one of them. Even though his manafesto sounded a lot like Republicans. That's ok. They never admit anything. They lost the election fair and square. Trump broke laws. Masks save lives.The Right’s Violence Problem

So much for religion making people better.I think that liberal dem officials would report an obvious politically motived hate crime, as just a regular hate crime, if the crime did not fit the narrative.

So much for religion making people better.
Predictable though. It seems more about terrorism, imo. Terrorism is when crime is used to achieve a political purpose. Beating Matthew Shephard to death and tying him with barbed wire to a post, for example. The muslim in san diego who shot up his coworkers during the 2016 campaign, and Trump made political use of it, as well.You are also conflating everyday murders with mass murders motivated by political extremism.
Comprehension fail.

Too many Republicans here on USMB have posted threads about their fear that whites are being replaced. WHO CARES? I'm white. I don't care if whites aren't the majority. Maybe I would if another group was going to be the majority but they are not. Hispanics will melt right in with whites.
And that's another reason you whites don't have to worry. Every arab and mexican's grandchildren will blend in, assimilate and consider themselves white Americans. So relax white America, you'll still be in control long after hispanics become a majority. Because those Hispanics will basically be white. I work with this Chaldean woman. She's such a fucking arab. Probably first generation. She even has that gross Chaldean way of talking. Slimy bastards. But if she was out with a group of girls, you'd think they were just a group of white girls. Some brunettes and some blondes.
Dude, you do nothing but parrot leftist propaganda.No public figure has promoted replacement theory more loudly or relentlessly than the Fox host Tucker Carlson, who has made elite-led demographic change a central theme of his show since joining Fox’s prime-time lineup in 2016. A Times investigation published this month showed that in more than 400 episodes of his show, Mr. Carlson has amplified the notion that Democratic politicians and other assorted elites want to force demographic change through immigration, and his producers sometimes scoured his show’s raw material from the same dark corners of the internet that the Buffalo suspect did.
“It’s not a pipeline. It’s an open sewer,” said Chris Stirewalt, a former Fox News political editor who was fired in 2020 after defending the network’s decision to call Arizona for then-candidate Joseph R. Biden, and who wrote a forthcoming book on how media outlets stoke anger to build audiences.

HOOOOOLY shit hahahaha... We now have a NEW CATEGORY in town .. EVERYDAY MURDERS???? LOLOLOLYou are also conflating everyday murders with mass murders motivated by political extremism.
Comprehension fail.

Well listen now lets be reasonable eh? If we just apply a few filters to the situation maybe we can get where the OP wants to go.What the OP of this thread is unwilling to admit is that almost ALL of the violence comes from the Left, NOT the right. What a moron.
Pololololoitfact said so!Lol the leftist extremists are responsible for 18 murders? You got to be fucking kidding me
