You suppose somebody decided it was too "sensitive" to publicize?

Hmmmm...... "Among that wide range of animating ideologies, racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists (principally those who promote the superiority of the white race) and militia violent extremists are assessed as presenting the most persistent and lethal threats." (Emphasis mine) I pay attention to Fox News, which seems pretty accurate, and I'm just not seeing stories about "white supremacists" causing trouble. I hear a lot about BLM-inspired violence. Usually working hand-in-glove with Antifa, the latter of which I've not heard characterized as a white supremacy group -- except of course by the Lamestream Media, and we all know how accurate THEY are.
In the paragraphs following the one I quoted from, there's stuff that's supposed to reassure us that the government has, or will get, it all under control. I'm just worried about the way they will go about it. And when it talks about "protect[ing] the independence and integrity of the Department of Justice, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation" I can't help but think that means weaponizing them. The FBI lost its "independence and integrity" before Trump was elected, but they're more dangerous than ever because of that.

I DID find something I expected to find, though: "It also means reducing access to assault weapons and high–capacity magazines and enforcing legal prohibitions that keep firearms out of dangerous hands." Yep, we knew that'd be in there. And the sentence that follows rings hollow: "Such prevention efforts must be pursued while safeguarding civil rights and civil liberties, including privacy protections, and while avoiding discrimination, bias, and stereotyping." Pardon me if I don't trust them to do that!
I think this whole thing boils down to "We've done a lousy job of combating domestic terrorism in the past, so we're going to write this document about how we'll do better in the future, while infringing more and more on normal citizens' lives."
