I don't think we are giving the left enough credit for their violent rhetoric.
If you consider that the global warming scam/cap and trade is a leftist policy, there has been some violence coming from those extremes as well.
Some examples are James Jay Lee, the guy who took hostages and tried to blow up the Discovery Channel building. There were several families that committed suicide and/or shot their kids as a result of hardcore environmental fear mongering, and that disturbing global warming alarmist commercial with the people being blown up for not reducing their carbon footprint.

Yikes...I'd call that violent rhetoric as well.
