Only in the past two years have there been more jihadist deaths. Not sure where you got 2x from? Unless you mean one particular year? You may want to re-read.

In reality the KKK has killed more people than all jihadists combined. That is one group.

The page states the following body counts: 95 Jihadist 51 Far Right Wing.

(bottom of the page)

So not quite 2x.

I am not familiar with the history of the KKK, but are they still a threat?

If you consider the recent incidents: Paris (how many times!?), Stockholm, St. Petersburg and Nice, do you really believe Right Wing groups poses a greater threat?

The KKK is like some mythical beast brought out every couple years to scare people.

It is almost non existent.
