Finally! Better late than never!
EDIT: This comes from the NJ Department of Homeland Security, not the US DHS.

For reference, here is the definition of Domestic Terrorism:
(5) the term “domestic terrorism” means activities that—
(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
(B) appear to be intended—
(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or
(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and
(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.

If true, that's a good beginning. Now add the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR to the list and we're getting somewhere.

But the KKK and other White Supremacist groups are not labeled as terrorist organizations. So what gives? I'm for Anti-FA being on the list but so do others.

MAJ James Woods - Show me the current acts of terror committed by these organizations. To be honest, they are panty waists compared to their predecessors. I grew up seeing reports of American Nazi Party parades and demonstrations all over the US. Few people attended. They were always out numbered by counter demonstrators. There was never any violence. Today's KKK similarly is a social club compared to the post Civil War thugs who lynched, pillaged, raped, and burned their way across the South. Today's KKK is headquartered in the North and is rarely seen. Granted they are more numerous than the American Nazi Party but, again, I have not heard reports of acts of terror committed by them in recent decades. White supremacists are not organized like the American Nazi Party or the KKK. They are a loose confederation of gangs, mostly arising from prison convicts. They are often mistaken for Nazis because the swastika is one of their more popular tattoos. Rather than terrorists, they are criminals and are regularly treated as such.

MAJ James Woods
CPT Jack Durish - You're calling the Alt-Right group, KKK, and American Nazi groups are social club gangs that never counter protested a rally by a leftist group showing up armed and threatening the safety of others and actually attacked people. Next you'll be saying anti-government militias who have seized government property, threatened locals and law enforcement, making political demands are peaceful protesters not domestic terrorists or criminal behavior either.
White supremacists are not organized? The American Nazi party and the KKK are examples of organized White supremacist groups then and now. So just stop.

SSG(P) (Join to see) I have to call bullshit on this. How can DHS know that Antifa is inciting violence in New York, Philadelphia, or Chicago? There is so much violence in those cities that it would be more noticeable if they incited peace.
The thing that I am amused by in all of these groups on both sides is that they want their right to free speech protected while trampling that right for those they disagree with.

NJ Department of Homeland Security. As much as I hate new Jersey, they DO get tyrannical security right, if not overdo it.

It's the NJ dept of DHS, you know, the state run by Trumps biggest supporter Chris Christie. Here's the link. The "declaration" by NJ doesn't mean squat. Funny though, how that article left off the NJ. Honest mistake, or a right wing source trying to create a false impression in the minds of followers they know will never read past the headline.

Anti-fascist groups, or “Antifa,” are a subset of the anarchist movement and focus on issues involving racism, sexism, and anti-Semitism, as well as other perceived injustices.
