My guess, just off-hand, would be ZERO. I don't think there are any American-Christian terrorists. [ we'll exclude President Bush for the sake of brevity].
But the only Americans who have been caught and detained as terrorists seem to have switched over to another, ah, religion [if bombing and killing innocent people can be called a 'religion'].
Funny thing is, I Posted a similar Question about a month ago using another nationality and religion [maybe like Arab-Islamic. maybe] and got Reported and my Account "Suspended" within an hour.
I'm wondering if there is a double-standard here?
Anyway, what was the question?
The actual post has been deleted from Y! Answers, but sadly, this person does not appear to be joking.
Not sure why he's referring to Bush in the question, because it doesn't seem to fit his mindset.
And I'm sure this person does not consider the numerous acts of violence against doctors and clinics who provide abortions (often along with many other services for women) to be terrorism. There are many of us who would disagree.
Between 1977-2005, crimes committed by abortion protestors include:
7 murders
17 attempted murders
52 bombings
180 arsons
1,211 acts of vandalism
1,341 trespasses
100 acid attacks
655 anthrax threats
375 death threats
3 kidnappings
480 cases of stalking
(US and Canada, 1977-2005, numbers compiled by the Feminist Majority Foundation)
The murders include James Barrett, a retired AF colonel who was acting as an escort for Dr. John Britton, also murdered, and Dr. Barnett Slepian, shot dead in his own kitchen with his children in the house.
Sounds pretty terrorist to me.
Even leaving all this aside, how can this idiot forget Timothy McVeigh? You know, clean-cut soldier guy who blew up the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City, 13 years ago next week? Biggest terrorist act on US soil until September 11, 2001?
Again, one of my arguments for free speech: so that we know where these people are.
