>I'd say the political right probably makes more verbal threats (or perceived verbal threats), but the far left does more in the way of actual violence.

Of course it does.

While there have been some repressive conservative governments that employed violence - colonial Britain, South Africa, et al- they never matched the American, French or Russian Revolutions - all far left movements- for sheer violence.

When people perceive - rightly or wrongly- that the system is rigged, they often see violence as the only resort.

It's hard to imagine the Walmart heirs taking to the streets, isn't t?
