A few dem politicians encouraging the intimidation of the SC justices.

There was a man who was arrested because the FBI thought they had credible info he was looking to hurt/kill a SC justice - he had a gun, knife and rope on him when he was on the way to one of their homes.
“Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere. We’ve got to get the children connected to their parents,” Waters said at the Wilshire Federal Building.

New Jersey’s Booker was also recorded in 2018 urging activists at the National Conference on Ending Homelessness to “get up in the face of some congresspeople.”
“Before I end, that’s my call to action here. Please don’t just come here today and then go home,” he said. “Go to the Hill today. Get up, and please get up in the face of some congresspeople.”
Also in 2019, Tester said on MSNBC that the way to beat Trump in the election was to “punch him in the face.”

Another example of left leaning people being more politically violent is how many anti-Israel protests turn violent and how so few (if any) anti-Palestine protests turn violent. As we all know dems tend to support Palestine and repubs tend to support Israel.
I’m not all political violence is by dems but I think it is fair to say it is far too common by dems and an extreme rarity for repubs.
