Rachel Maddow's thorough report on right wing extremist groups and violence ends with a question rather than an answer.
Raw Story, which is used as a source by progressive PressTV had this review:
Rachel Maddow: Why is the U.S. so reluctant to confront its own right-wing terrorists?

Tuesday night on her MSNBC show, Rachel Maddow discussed the real threat of violence from right-wing extremists here in the U.S. as opposed to Islamic terrorism, which most Americans are much more afraid of.
She began by detailing the arrests in the late 1980s of several members of the Aryan Nation gang, a ring of counterfeiters and criminals who hoped to bring about an all-white homeland, or at least a section of the country devoted to the white race.
In 1987, 15 neo-Nazi leaders of the Aryan Nation were arrested and charged with sedition.
“So that was in 1987,” Maddow said. “Really ambitious prosecution brought against all those different white supremacist leaders. They’re going after them for trying to overthrow the U.S. government.”
