2015 was America's deadliest year for domestic extremist killings since the Oklahoma City bombing

[AF-Roger]

This past year was the deadliest year for domestic extremism-related shootings in 20 years, according to a new report from the Anti-Defamation League.

The report accounted for 52 people who were killed by domestic extremists, which is more than the total from 2013 and 2014 combined. It was the most deaths from domestic extremism since 1995, when Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols bombed the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, killing 168.

The greatest percentage of domestic extremist killings came at the hands of white supremacists, accounting for 38% of those deaths. Nearly half of those killings oc cured in the June 17 mass shooting at the Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

Security has become a very noble thing that need careful consideration. It is not only the united states that have heard a rough 2015 when it comes to the security attacks and killings. Even super powers have threat and we need to be careful in the 2016 so that we avoid making the mistakes that we may have made in the previous year. To the affected family I know it is not always easy, but we need to get focused and to the root of all this happenings.

Wouldn't 9-11-2001 be the most deadliest year since 1995, with almost 3000 people dying (Going from the title of your post of " domestic extremist killings...")?

So sad that everybody can't just get along
Instead of decreasing all these crimes are more and more.

Wouldn't 9-11-2001 be the most deadliest year since 1995, with almost 3000 people dying (Going from the title of your post of " domestic extremist killings...")?

But the 9-11 assassins weren't "domestic", they were Al-Qaeda members.
