Bias: A gay activist opens fire in a conservative organization's offices, inspired by the steady drumbeat of leftist vitriol against those who value traditional marriage, and no one says a word.
You won't hear any call for civil discourse from President Obama's bully pulpit over the shooting and wounding of a security guard at the offices of the conservative Family Research Council (FRC) in Washington, D.C.
The alleged shooter was a volunteer at a community center for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, and the FRC favors traditional marriage.
Those who blamed Sarah Palin for the shooting of Congresswoman Gabriel Giffords or Rush Limbaugh for the Oklahoma City bombing are strangely silent.
At least the likes of ABC's Brian Ross didn't reflexively blame the Tea Party, as he did after a gunman shot up an Aurora, Colo., movie theater.
On Tuesday, the Human Rights Campaign put on its blog a piece titled, "Paul Ryan Speaking at Hate Group's Annual Conference," referring to the FRC.
It said that the "FRC has been labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. It's a group that has advocated for the criminalization of homosexuality, called for LGBT people to be exported from the U.S., and has pushed dangerous lies trying to link being gay to pedophilia."
The FRC has done none of those things but that didn't stop the Daily Kos from vilifying the FRC for its support of Chick-fil-A: "Chick-fil-A's corporate 'charity' arm WinShape has donated millions of dollars to groups like Family Research Council. FRC doesn't just oppose marriage equality, they really do HATE gays."

Whats more they welcome them, as long as the right targets re chosen.
What can legally be done to take the SPLC and that traitor Dees down?
Liberal hypocrisy ping
Ir will take Romney’s attorney general.
It's time for our side to form a 'Norther Poverty Law Center' - the purpose will be to label all left wing organizations as 'hate groups', feed endless innuendos to the press ( you know what the left calls Joe McCarthy tactics) and create rumors to pit Americans against each other.
We'll also find those people who are paranoid AND stupid - and help put them in charge of organization like Homeland Security.
Absolute TRIPE, but folks like the shooter at FRC truly believe it, because it's repeated ad nauseum on the liberal channels and in the liberal blogosphere.
It’d be nice if he picks Pirro or Giuliani.
Yeah....I know Rudy’s a dress-wearing RINO.....but he was a hell of a prosecutor and he seems to love going after criminals hammer and tongs.
The ‘Northern Poverty Law Center’ will immediately be labeled a “hate Group” by the Southern Poverty Law Center
You're right - then we'll call them a name back...
The left's cornered the market on ‘name calling’... we can play. We were in forth grade once...
So, nana nana nana the SPLC's a hate group too - slides off me, sticks to you....
Is that juvenile enough?
Thanks for the ping.
This is not the first incident gays have violently attacked Christians and it won’t be the last.
Christians have to get political and make politicans go after these animals. They are violating Christians civil rights and constitutional rights. Gays sue. Christians need to sue, too.
Leftist revolutionary action in force.
IMHO
this kind of violence is not the intent of the mainstream leftist orgs but there is no denying that it is used as impetus for people that are looking to confirm their own views..
I remember when the SPLC was a reasonable organization and then they started to expand the definition of a hate group to include 60% of the population and everyone not registered as a democrat, communist, green or socialist.
