Is there any elite organized rightist violence?

High society radical leftist fronts were a common feature of the 1970s. Is there anything like it since?

Is there any elite organized rightist violence the way there was elite organized leftist violence in the 1970s? For example, here’s the Wikipedia page for Bill Ayers’ dad, the late Tom Ayers:

Thomas G. Ayers

Thomas G. Ayers (February 16, 1915, in Detroit, Michigan – June 8, 2007, in Chicago, Illinois) was president (1964–1980), CEO and chairman (1973–1980) of Commonwealth Edison.[2]

Ayers served as chairman of the Board of Trustees of Northwestern University, the Erikson Institute, the Bank Street College of Education in New York City, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Chicago Community Trust, the Chicago Urban League, the Community Renewal Society, the Chicago Association of Commerce and Industry, Chicago United, the Leadership Council for Metropolitan Open Communities, and Dearborn Park Corp., and served as vice president of the Chicago Board of Education.

Ayers also served on the board of directors of Sears, G.D. Searle, Chicago Pacific Corp., Zenith Corp., Northwest Industries, General Dynamics Corp. of St. Louis, First National Bank of Chicago, the Chicago Cubs, and the Tribune Co.

… His son William Ayers, once the leader of the radical Weather Underground, has been a professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago since 1987.

And by organized, I mean, that, say, Dr. Angela Davis could disappear for two months after the gun she’d just bought was used to blow off Judge Harold Haley’s head because she had allies who helped her hide out, and then she got acquitted of felony murder because her allies got her good lawyers and alibis at her trial.

Or consider a less well-known example: Angela’s boyfriend George Jackson’s lawyer Stephen Bingham.

He was the grandson of Hiram Bingham III, the discoverer of Machu Picchu in 1911 and later governor of and US senator from Connecticut. He was the great-grandson of Hiram Bingham I, the Protestant missionary who founded Barack Obama’s alma mater, Punahou School in Honolulu. Max von Sydow portrayed the Rev. Bingham opposite Julie Andrews in 1966’s #1 box office movie “Hawaii.” His mother was a Tiffany heiress and his first wife was a Spreckel’s Sugar heiress.

From Wikipedia:

On August 21, 1971, Jackson met with attorney Stephen Bingham at San Quentin Prison to discuss a civil lawsuit which Jackson had filed against the California Department of Corrections. After the meeting, Jackson was being escorted by officer Urbano Rubiaco back to his cell when Rubiaco noticed a metallic object in Jackson’s hair, later revealed to be a wig, and ordered him to remove it. Jackson then pulled a Spanish Astra 9 mm pistol from beneath the wig and said: “Gentlemen, the dragon has come”—a reference to Ho Chi Minh. It is unclear how Jackson obtained the gun….

Jackson ordered Rubiaco to open all the cells and, with assistance from several other inmates, he overpowered the remaining corrections officers and took them, along with two inmates, hostage. A total of five hostages—officers Jere Graham, Frank DeLeon, and Paul Krasnes, and two white prisoners—were killed and found in Jackson’s cell. Three other officers, Rubiaco, Kenneth McCray, and Charles Breckenridge, were shot and stabbed, but survived. After finding the keys to the Adjustment Center’s exit, Jackson along with fellow inmate and close friend Johnny Spain escaped to the yard where …

Brilliant planning! At least so far …

Jackson was shot dead from a tower and Spain surrendered.

Oh, well, I guess they didn’t quite have a plan for what to do about the snipers in the towers …

Bingham spent 13 years on the lam, mostly in France. He returned to stand trial in Marin County, where his expensive defense attorneys argued that not Bingham but the guards slipped George Jackson the gun in order to get Jackson killed.

Jackson and his gang then killed three guards and wounded three more, so the defense’s theory sounds a little implausible. But, whatever, a Marin County jury …
