Why are liberals so violent?

It's just like Portland all over again.  Fox News: "California Dems decry 'bullying,' death threats from the left after shelving health bill."  "California Democratic lawmakers are facing a brutal backlash from union activists and others on the left after shelving a universal health care bill – a debate that has grown so intense that lawmakers say they’ve faced death threats and other violent rhetoric."

If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear flowers in your hair body armor.

Why are conservatives -- who titter about "safe spaces" for "snowflakes," while fantasizing about using their muskets to "refreshing the tree of liberty from time to time with blood" -- so bad at identifying violence?

More concretely, why are alibi conservatives so understanding of some violent rhetoric, or even literal violence, based on voter registration?
