MediaMatters: Lone Wolves A Recent History of Violent RW Extremism
The report is from 2011 so, obviously doesn't include the spate of recent cop killings post Bundy Ranch in Las Vegas, Texas, Florida and Pennsylvania and others.
Serious read, though, that shouldn't be missed. On the first example, it should be noted that the DHS report in 2009 that GOP screamed about to suppress it, specifically warned that RW extremist groups were 'recruiting' returning soldiers. (They ran with the Obama hates soldiers and veterans narrative.)

Yesterday, as conservative media hyped the commencement of Rep. Peter King's contentious hearings on Muslim radicalization in America, details continued to emerge about Kevin William Hardham, the 36-year-old Army field artillery veteran accused of planting a "weapon of mass destruction," along the route of a Martin Luther King Day unity parade route in Spokane, Washington earlier this year.
The backpack bomb Hardham allegedly planted contained shrapnel dipped in rat poison. It was discovered just minutes before hundreds of MLK Day marchers arrived. Hardham appears to have a long track record of fantasizing about politically and racially motivated violence in various online extremist forums.
