I will note that regardless of religion, the vast majority of terrorism committed these days is done by people who practice far right-wing ideologies. There's not as huge a gulf between white supremacists and radical Islamist terrorists as people might think, they've just picked different homogeneous groups in their own mind to 'bat' for. Almost certainly the vast majority of either group haven't actually read the religious or ideological texts of the faiths or ideals they vaguely gesture towards protecting, or if they have, have not actually paid attention to anything that those texts actually say.

I will also note that a possible explanation why - going by what alephy is saying (haven't actually looked at the stats on this particular one) - there could be proportionally more instances of radical Islamist terror attacks relative to the size of the population, is that US foreign policy over the past half-century or so has served to destabilise entire geopolitical regions and that in itself will have fed into those radical ideologies, which in some cases have arisen as a response to US policy. It then does appear to follow that the US would be more of a target for acts of terror from Islamist terrorists, as it is the big imperialist power that has ruined the lives of many people across the middle east. This does not in any way excuse these acts, and they are clearly terrorist acts; however, perhaps there might be more productive ways to counteract the large number of terror cases than further demonising Muslims and Islam as a whole.

Kamala bus escorted by Trump train out of Texas
Is pretty funny but there was an accident/collision.
The police department also said it has researched the crash and watched online video. It said the “at-fault vehicle” may be the Biden-Harris staffer’s car, while the “victim” appears to be one of the Trump vehicles.
“The at-fault vehicle may be the white SUV and the victim appears to be the black truck,” a statement from SMPD reads.
“Calls to the driver of the white SUV have gone unanswered and SMPD has not been contacted by the driver of the black truck. Since SMPD has not spoken to either driver at this time, additional investigation would be required to fully ascertain who was at fault.”
A spokeswoman with the FBI told KXAN they would have a statement as early as noon Sunday.
KXAN’s media partner, The Texas Tribune, reported that the FBI was looking into the alleged incident.
