Mother Jones: 'Right-Wing Extremism' Killed More Since 9/11 Than Islamic Terror

Typical lying by the left. The article does a good job of showing how they inflate the "rightwing" by 90%, while ignoring much islamic terror.

[R]ight-wing extremists killed 29 people during those 11 years.”

Here is their complete list of “rightwing terrorist attacks,” with number of killed in parentheses:
