Everytown be like “yeah, some people on the left commit violence with guns, but we don’t care about them. LOOK! White supremacists!!!!” They’re pretty much admitting (we already knew) they only care about violence committed by their political enemies. [More]
The keyword here is "committed." The grabbers talk about "extreme right circles, numerous militias, white supremacists, and other fringe groups [translation: Republicans/gun owners] openly discuss[ing] acts of violence."
They're not the ones openly committing it with headline-making regularity.
It's just the standard cop tradeoff -- so much safer to arrest someone who will talk about shooting you than someone who will shoot you.
