I find the biggest flaw in your position is citing murder as the determinant factor in a ideology's level of violence.  While murder is certainly the most extreme form of violence does the fact that a certain ideology produce more murders (a minuscule amount of the total murders per year) automatically make then more violent?  For instance, if far right group A commits 5 murders per year (yes, completely unacceptable) but this is the extent of their violent activity, are they more violent than far left group B, that committed zero murders that year but committed 500 assaults with a deadly weapon?  My point obviously being that using murder as the sole determinant of a ideology's propensity towards violence is an utterly flawed metric.

Sure, murder is only one metric, but is there data out there to show antifa being as much of a threat as right wing extremists? 

Is there data to support the notion that antifa represents more of a organized threat than right wing extremists, which the leaked documents show was often dismissed as lone wolf threats?

Is this just a rhetorical argument against a group you do not like, or is there quantified data to show that these law enforcements agencies are right in trying to elevate the threat that antifa poses while downplaying the threat of right wing groups, especially as the intelligence they receive points to right wing groups being a far more imminent threat?
