Ah, point taken. But I do think this is not quite what Cannoli was talking about.

No doubt there have been more notable murdering crazys on the far right. Some of them seem to be genuinely crazy (like the Norwegian guy and the guy that shot Giffords), others just cold and evil.
But I think Cannoli was comparing groups like the Occupiers and other leftists (like those that violently descended on the WTO in Seattle a decade ago) that seem willing to disrupt other groups' lawful gatherings with obnoxious and violent behavior to their counterparts on the right. Maybe you would argue that their counterparts on the right are the people that blow up abortion clinics or the KKK, if so then we have a simple disagreement.

A little learning is a dangerous thing.

I know several hardline Republicans who would gladly vote for Edwards over Jindal.

That one stuck in my mind, since it happened <100 miles from where I sat, but there are many others.
