Hamburg, Germany, July. As world leaders gather for the G20 summit, far-left "anti-fascist" (antifa) rioters set fire to cars and property, terrorize residents and injure more than 200 police officers attempting to keep the peace. Did you miss it? CNN's initial reports referred to the "protesters" as "eclectic" and "peaceful."

You could simply visit America's elite college campuses like Yale or Middlebury or Berkeley, where tomorrow's leaders attempt to shut down conservative voices with protest or riots. At Middlebury, rioting students landed liberal professor Allison Stanger in a neck brace for the crime of defending a conservative academic's right to speak. At Berkeley, mobs of students created a "war zone" ahead of a planned visit from conservative provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, injuring Trump supporters and causing $100,000 in damages.

From 3 years ago:
Or head to Portland, Ore., one of the most liberal cities in the nation in the heart of the progressive Pacific Northwest, which this month Politico labeled "America's Most Politically Violent City." The progressive paradise —where Republicans are virtually an extinct species — has witnessed millions in damages attributed to the same types of anti-fascists-in-name-only that kept Hamburg residents paralyzed in fear this month. A "counter-protest" to a planned pro-Trump rally landed 14 antifa in jail for attacking the police with explosives and bricks.

James Hodgkinson, a "fervent supporter of progressive politics," showed up to the field with a rifle, a handgun and a hit list of Republicans. As Scalise fought for his life, MSNBC host Joy Reid felt conflicted: The attempted assassination was a "delicate thing" because of Scalise's conservative views like opposition to gay marriage. "Are we required in a moral sense to put that aside in the moment?" she wondered. Yes, Joy, you are. The shooting of a mainstream, congressional Republican leader is reprehensible, and in no way justifiable.)

There have been no right-wing groups storming campuses and flinging feces at speakers we don't like; no tea party mobs destroying property, assaulting police officers, and paralyzing our major cities; and no Republican senators calling their colleagues murderers just weeks after a political assassination attempt.
