You keep pointing to the size of each of the individual right-wing extremest groups, but you seem to ignore the fact that while an individual group may be small, the overall number of groups themselves is significant.
Really? So what is the size of the overall extremist right wing groups? I googled Nazis and white supremacists to get he numbers I gave. If you have other numbers post them. I think it's telling that the most they can put up for one of their rallies is a few hundred people.
It should also be pointed out that, for the past decade (ending in 2016), right wing extremists accounted for 74% of all murders by extremists. On the other hand, Islamic terrorists accounted for 24% Left wing extremists accounted for ~2%. So, which group do you think demands the most attention?
The Muslims. Because the vast majority of the extremist violence from the far right is unplanned and generally comes from individual anti-government loonies resisting the orders of police and courts and trying to get out of paying taxes. And because they're far right and American they're all armed. As such, they're not much danger to most people.
If you want a laugh sometime look up 'sovereign citizen' on you tube and see all these loonies being pulled over by police trying to say they're not responsible for having drivers licences and don't have to roll down the window because they're a sovereign citizen and getting yanked out of their cars and handcuffed.
But the far right isn't going to want to poison a reservoir, or blow up a nuclear power station, or set off a car bomb next to a school, or drive a truck through a crowd of shoppers or tourists. A far right extremist isn't going to run down the street stabbing and shooting people at random.
