The Mob at Tucker Carlson’s Home Shows How Idealism Can Lead to Evil | Intellectual Takeout
"Last week, angry “Smash Racism DC” Antifa protestors chanted obscenities outside the home of Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson: "Racist scumbag, leave town!" 
They ominously added, “Tucker Carlson, we will fight. We know where you sleep at night."
The mob broke Carlson’s front door. 
A video captured one protester saying she wished she had a pipe bomb.
...CNN Host Justifies Mob Violence
This past summer, CNN anchor Chris Cuomo provided a moral justification for mobs like the one outside Carlson’s home. 
"People who show up to fight against bigots are not to be judged the same as the bigots, even if they do resort to the same petty violence," Cuomo said. 
He argued: "When someone comes to call out bigots, and it gets hot, even physical, are they equally wrong as the bigot they are fighting? I argue, no. Fighting against hate matters." 
Cuomo’s words provide succor to violent thugs.
...History is clear: When the ordinary restraints of civil society no longer apply, there is no forecasting who will be caught in the resulting web of hatred.
