    Years of misguided alarmism over "Islamic terrorism" resulted in the erosion of civil liberties, militarization of police, and a host of other bad outcomes. Applying the same alarmist logic to "white nationalist terrorism" is likely to produce a host of similarly bad outcomes

        And especially immigration from Saudi Arabia. Bush II even wanted to transfer management of some US ports to Dubai in 2006. Congress forced him to back down.http://www.nbcnews.com/id/11474440/ns/us_news-security/t/bush-backs-transfer-us-ports-dubai-firm/#.XUdJu_JKjIU …

        Years of tolerance over the NRA lobby and white domestic terrorism resulted in the deadly combination of the El Paso massacre. But yes, forget the alarmist logic, this is just a mental health issue.

        The longer we go without doing anything, while more and more people are killed, the more people will want to overcorrect.

        ^ I had a black, gun-loving roommate during a deployment. He was an independent thinker. He opened my eyes to the plain rate-of-death from terrorism versus a population, be it entire nation, or just American Muslims. TERRORISM in all forms is vanishingly rare.

        We need a clear federal domestic terrorism statute. The majority of terrorism deaths in the past ten years have been the result of domestic terrorism. A proper statute would help law enforcement and the FBI investigate and utilize appropriate resources.
