Default Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America's Violent Far-Right

For the last century, almost all of the major genocides have been carried out by left-wing governments. And virtually all of the recent mass shooters were leftists

Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America's Violent Far-Right






In the last few years, and especially since 2007, there has been a


dramatic rise in the number of attacks and violent plots originating


from individuals and groups who self-identify with the far-right of


American politics. These incidents cause many to wonder whether these


are isolated attacks, an increasing trend, part of increasing societal


violence, or attributable to some other condition. To date, however,


there has been limited systematic documentation and analysis of


incidents of American domestic violence.




This study provides a conceptual foundation for understanding different


far-right groups and then presents the empirical analysis of violent


incidents to identify those perpetrating attacks and their associated


trends. Through a comprehensive look at the data, this study addresses


three core questions:




(1) What are the main current characteristics of the violence produced


by the far right?




(2) What type of far-right groups are more prone than others to engage


in violence? How are characteristics of particular far-right groups


correlated with their tendency to engage in violence?




(3) What are the social and political factors associated with the level


of far-right violence? Are there political or social conditions that


foster or discourage violence?




It is important to note that this study concentrates on those


individuals and groups who have actually perpetuated violence and is not


a comprehensive analysis of the political causes with which some


far-right extremists identify. While the ability to hold and


appropriately articulate diverse political views is an American


strength, extremists committing acts of violence in the name of those


causes undermine the freedoms that they purport to espouse.

What they lack in intelligence, they more than make up for with blind
hatred.

I wonder how many violent lefties they had to stumble over and
either ignore or redefine in their search for "Violent Far Rightists"?

Weren't there 3 or 4 of them over the past several decades? I seem to
remember some abortion clinics being blown up. I think that's the
total number of violent righties, though. 99% of the mass murders are
Democrats, born and (in)bred.

You forget that a lot of those who are now "mainstream" Democrats
are tenured, "respectable" and any acts of revolutionary violence were
...umm, err "premature" and purely a result of "youthful exuberance"
and not to be considered relevant any more.
You know, Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farikhan, Chris
Matthews, Speaker Pelosi. In the words of Hilary Clinton, what
difference does it make now?
