Sara Jane Moore was a far-left wacko, yet after her attempt to kill the President nobody in the media called for a crackdown on far-left groups (and there were no demands for them to cool their rhetoric). Could you imagine what the media would have been demanding if the situation was reversed?

One doesn't have to imagine. After the Oklahoma bombing, Clinton driven by the media cracked down on the Michigan militia.

I do remember the 90's, where overzealous police actions that benefitted the adminstration were supported 100%.
