Terrorists Aren't Terrorists. When They're White And On The Right.

One more act of terrorism in the United States. Think anyone but a few liberals will describe it that way?

Oh, and in case you missed it, there was another terrorist act recently that flew under the radar. Fortunately, no one was hurt.

Sergeant Brandon Paudert and Officer Bill Evans weren't so lucky. They are only the latest victims of American-born right-wing terrorism. They won't be the last:
Mark Potok, who directs hate-group research at the Southern Poverty Law Center, said Mr. Kane [one of the two terrorists, the other being his son] had not been in the group’s database before Thursday. But he said that was not surprising, given the “explosive growth” in the antigovernment movement in recent years. With 363 new groups in 2009, there are now 512, Mr. Potok said.
