Can't access your link from the EU but fully agree with your point. I did an analysis in June 2015 in the EU, but I am sure it still holds now, by comparing the number of deaths from eurostats for just the year 2011, to all cumulative terrorist attacks in the EU from 1958 per wikipedia:

Also modern terrorism is bad but we forget that far-left and state sponsored terrorism was worse in the 80s (numbers as of 2017):

number of attacks over time: https://zbpublic.blob.core.windows.net/public/terrorism2015/...

number of deaths: https://zbpublic.blob.core.windows.net/public/terrorism2015/...

And this is in the EU. In the US I am sure the numbers would be completely drown in the numbers for common crime.
