Probably trying to make the point that it isn't terrorists who are to be most feared - but fellow countrymen.  I suspect police killings fit into the last category.  It would certainly be interesting to see that figure separately.

It is sad that the Americans cannot comprehend their love affair with guns puts them in more danger not less.

The point it is making is not that guns are bad but that the USA has its priorities wrong. In particular, Donald Trump's ideas on immigration are dead wrong.

And while I agree with that I think it would be seen to be more valid if the mist egregious incidents of Islamic terrorism were not excluded by the data. It won't make an overall change to the position that the priorities are wrong but it will avoid any accusations of cherry picking a particular data set to get the answer.

Which ones are missing?

Here's the source with the list used in it.
