Statistics show White Supremacy bigger threat to U.S than Radical Muslims
Yahoo News ^ | October 2, 2015 | Keisha Hatchett

Despite what Donald Trump and many other politicians have told you, the major threat to America isn’t Muslim extremism. In fact, statistics show that the real danger lies with domestic extremists who aren’t of the Muslim faith.

The New York Times reported back in June that since Sept. 11, 2001, almost twice as many people have died at the hands of white supremacists and other non-Muslim extremists than by radical Muslims. Using data compiled by New America, a Washington Research center, a study found that 48 people have been killed by extremists who are not Muslim—including the mass killings in Charleston, S.C.—compared to the 26 by self-proclaimed jihadists. However, this does not factor in yesterday’s tragic shooting or less publicized incidents like the Las Vegas couple who murdered two police officers and left a Swastika on one of the bodies.

Sad testimony to the NYSlimes’ circulation freefall that they are forced to try to entice The Onion readership.

I'm absolutely sure there is no bias on the part of the writer:

Anything posted by Yahoo is heavily biased. Even Yahoo Finance distorts and “shapes” economic news to fit the leftist agenda. Yahoo is an extremely liberal site lacking in credibility.

In other words, since September 10, 2001, about SIXTY TIMES as many American people have died at the hands of radical Muslims than at the hands of white supremacists and other non-Muslim extremists!

I am really beginning to hate the mainstream media!

Middle East and terrorism, occasional political and Jewish issues Ping List. High Volume

If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

..................

Unfortunately the line at New America is down, shows zero fatalities. It's interesting that they contrast jihadist attacks with RIght Wing attacks, clearly implying a political motivation. And, I suspect, lumping groups like the KKK, a century and half old democrat political organization in it's origin and various rebirths as right wing. Even the NYT headline screams White Supremecists, changing it in the first paragraph to domestic extremists who aren’t of the Muslim faith

Counting the steps on the NYT chart

it appears as though since 9/11 there have been 5 jihadist attacks and 8 non-jihadist. If true, that's not a particularly comprehensive listing.

Interesting they use 9/11 in the headline for effect, but ignore the casualties that day. And how about gangbangers, the biggest threat to black lives, in numbers which overwhelm both the above categories. Are they not extremeists? Do they not have an ideology we should be combatting?

more people have died at the hands of white supremacists and other non-Muslim extremists than by radical Muslims

so white supremacists PLUS everything else measured against radical muslims? They also make the headline as if it is only white supremacists being measured against radical muslims? Well, there it is, here's an actual example that we don't have news media but radical propaganda extremists.

95% of the comments basically say the same thing on any progressive drivel that found words and put them to paper and uploaded to that site.

You could say the same about pretty much any Yahoo article.

Don’t think they care.

WTF? I guess the MSM is trying to spin the fairy tale so that the truth of the Oregon shooter is buried.

Well if you ignore the first quarter where the visiting team scored 85 points, the remaining 3 quarters saw them score 6 points while the home team scored 14. Ergo...

The lie starts in the title. Define Muslim Extremist by what definition? Any premise posited by the left always begins with a very slanted if not fabricated assumption we are to take as truth. NOT HAPPENING.

Continue telling a LIE long enough and often enough, and folks will believe it.
