One threat included a vow to kill him in front of his students, according to the Washington Post. The threats led to Bray’s decision to relocate to Spain with his wife and two children and to continue to teach his students remotely.

It's unacceptable, frankly. Even the democrats went silent. Why aren't they yammering on and on about how both mass shooters were far right nut cases? They don't dish it out when it actually happens. They just lay down and cry when it comes back in our faces, falsely. #useless #rightwingterrorism

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left.

And it’s not even close!

Deleting the report doesn’t change the facts: Spurious claims by Felon47 and his allies that left-leaning Americans are more violent are not supported by the data.

Right-wing extremist violence is more frequent and more deadly than left-wing violence − what the data shows

Donald Trump and top administration officials confidently assert that left-wing political violence is a huge problem in the US. They’re wrong, say researchers who study extremism.

Pam Bondi deleted a government study showing that right-wingers commit more terrorism. The right cannot think coherently so instead of making their own studies, they censor legitimate ones.
