Rick Santorum suggested that Muslims are not doing enough to combat Islamic jihad. He said not all terrorist are Muslims but all Jihadist terrorists are Muslim. He also said that enough Muslims are not doing the job to help eradicate the jihadists among the fold.
Mika Brzezinski slammed Rick Santorum on the spot by pointing out that based on his argument he should be working on white men that are effecting mass killings with guns.
Though terrorism perpetrated by Muslims receives a disproportionate amount of attention from politicians and reporters, the reality is that right-wing extremists pose a much greater threat to people in the United States than terrorists connected to ISIS or similar organizations.
As UNC Professor Charles Kurzman and Duke Professor David Schanzer explained last June in the New York Times, Islam-inspired terror attacks “accounted for 50 fatalities over the past 13 and a half years.” Meanwhile, “right-wing extremists averaged 337 attacks per year in the decade after 9/11, causing a total of 254 fatalities.”
Kurzman and Schanzer’s methodology, moreover, may underestimate the degree to which domestic terrorists in the United States are motivated by right-wing views. As they describe the term in their New York Times piece, the term “right-wing extremist” primarily encompasses anti-government extremists such as members of the sovereign citizenmovement, although it also includes racist right-wing groups such as neo-Nazis. Thus, it is not yet clear whether Dear, who made anti-abortion remarks but also reportedly referenced President Obama, was motivated in part by the kind of anti-government views that are the focus of Kurzman and Schanzer’s inquiry.
It is time that truth prevails. It is time to stop a false narrative from taking hold.where has that Mika been?????????????? this is another example of the republican myth of liberal media if there was such a thing why is it we are constantly inundated with Trump and Pres.'s alleged failures and this the misdirected fear mongering yes there are some domestic terrorist here as well as sleeper elements but nowhere near as many right wing extremist. look at all the recent attacks on Mosques and the republican rhetoric by Trump that hasn't seen much of a rebuking by his party.
they don't mention the homegrown racist and terrorist because they are their own creation these persons have been played and manipulated like pawns on a chess board moved in the position the right wing wants them armed angry about the wrong thing and too under informed to know or care.
listen to the video he avoids the question then reverts to his true colors and talks about men in prison because of no father figure?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
that is where they are and who they are that reference has been repeatedly and exclusively related by them to Black family dynamic the question was why won't they do something about White men with guns destroying America. and we are still waiting for an answer!!!!!!
