So, if someone goes on a shooting spree and he's conservative, it's an indictment of anyone on the right.  If a liberal does the same thing, he's a lone wolf and not indicative of a radical ideology. 

While I do agree with you that this was just an attack by one lunatic, this is a guy that we're discovering was a masterful parrot of almost every media derived opinion on whatever the hot topic of the day is.  Whatever "scandal" the media manufactures on any given day, this guy was a reliable regurgitator of the party line.  His Facebook wall and letters he wrote to the editor of his local newspaper could just as easily be transcripts of liberal discussions taking place on CNN or MSNBC.  The rhetoric they use was parroted throughout his writings on any topic.  That kind of rhetoric has ultimately lead us to the point where you've got someone so ingrained in their political hatred that they're willing to do violence to support their viewpoint while squelching that of anyone they happen to disagree with.

We've seen similar behavior in Berkley where liberals have protested, rioted, attacked, and committed acts of violence against anyone with whom they disagree politically.

We've seen the same thing happen in Wisconsin, Chicago, New York, Washington State, and elsewhere where violence is a perfectly acceptable tactic to silence the opposition.  This incident is in reality an extension of that behavior, and as hard as the media tries to spin it like this violent rhetoric is coming from the right, the reality is that almost every documented incident of violence is coming from the people who claim to be the most tolerant.  Why is that?

Where was the outrage when a conservative attacked liberals with a machete in Kentucky?

When Ted Nugent said President Obama was a "subhuman mongrel" who can "suck his machine gun" did his buddy Mike Huckabee disavow or agree with him?

Are "conservatives" in denial about:





I concede the attacks on Trump supporters by liberal extremists are despicable, but don't forget how Trump encouraged his supporters.

There's bad on both sides, but today's attacker was an outlier.
