Terrorism has such a loose definition...


So does conservative or liberal, but when I use it in the context of American politics most people can figure it out.

Except the White ones... They get life instead of death. Frank Roque, Scott Roeder, Jim Adkisson, Eric Rudolph...

Right-wing and Christian terrorism is as much of a threat to the US as Muslim terrorism... If not more considering the Army of God are based in the US and that Christianity is the majority religion in the US.

Punishment fits the crime + if you can't do the time, dont do the crime.
Not a fan of the Death Penalty where there is a chance the person is innocent but the guilt here is 100% clear.


That's what they say all the time - proof beyond a reasonable doubt - yet 4% of death row inmates were falsely convicted. 1 in 25 the government gets wrong? Sorry, I don't think they deserve the power, even if the Boston bomber deserves it.

Muslim extremism is a threat to the entire world. Certain groups have real power in various countries(ISIS, the Taliban, Al Shabab, al Qaeda, etc).

What is the body count from right-wing or Christian terrorism in the past 10 years? Which of those groups has real power in any country(especially America)?

Not all threats have to be physical in nature.

And I'd say the Christian right has quite a lot of power in the US.

Again, the use of terror is not restricted to inflicting physical harm (such as bombing or shooting).




Do you deny that the Christian right has power in the US?
