Just say you don't care about Christian extremism then.

1) This is a loser mentality, and completely irrelevant to the topic at hand.
2) No one in America is denied healthcare. We can have arguments for weeks about the financing of healthcare, but no one is denied care. Not even people here illegally.
3) The biggest killer in the US is heart disease, which comes down to diet, exercise, and sometimes genetics. US politicians aren't killing Americans.

Both are bad, but my stance is the probability points to one over the other both in number of events and number of people killed.
In column A make a list of all the terror attacks committed by Christian extremists in the US since 2001. In column B make a list of all the terror attacks committed by Muslim extremists in the US since 2001. Include those killed if you really wanna dive into it. Then you might realize why people have some level of concern. It's not living in fear, it's recognizing the reality of modern day bad guys (and girls).

Here's 3 events from a quick Google search. All since 2018. For a total 54 deaths. I'm willing to bet the probability doesn't point quite the way you think it does. Just based upon actual population numbers and how people identify religious in this country.

Religious fanatics of all stripes are bad.
Brandishing an entire religion over it's most radical members is insane. You get into really dehumanizing thoughts when you do that. Not saying people here are radicals, but if you normalize the "Muslims have a significant portion that want to kill people or enact sharia law" you're going to have radicals take that as their call to action.

All notable events but you forgot about column B. The Orlando nightclub shooting, which I'm shocked you don't even acknowledge or mention, killed 49.Here's 3 events from a quick Google search. All since 2018. For a total 54 deaths. I'm willing to bet the probability doesn't point quite the way you think it does. Just based upon actual population numbers and how people identify religious in this country.

That one's a real conundrum for the leftists. Are they supposed to be outraged over the assault on gays or the portrayal of Muslims as terrorists?

Because even tho it was a gay club they determined he didn't choose it as his target because of that. He choose it because he wanted the most casualties

Really hard to arrive at that conclusion without hearing from the guy. Police killed him before he could talk. People can speculate for years but trial witnesses say he "became angry" the day of the shooting when he saw a gay couple kissing outside a restaurant.
And when he was talking to hostage negotiators, he said he was doing this in retaliation for US bombings on ISIS.

You already provided that for us.
As the Trial of Omar Mateen's Wife Begins, New Evidence Undermines Beliefs About the Pulse Massacre, Including Motive
The view that Mateen deliberately targeted LGBTs is almost certainly false. Yet it may play a large role in sending a potentially innocent woman to prison.

Four hours before he opened fire in the Pulse nightclub, Omar Mateen was at Disney Springs, court records show.

Again the point of the conversation was never to say one group is better or worse than the other. It has always been about religious extremism being bad regardless of the religion. And that only one really has the power politically to wield any power.
