No one should get a free pass for any reason on that, regardless of how apologetic some are because of what others have done to that group. If some kind of violence is acted on any of us (extreme or not), I'd suspect they'd want justice served. We can all turn the other cheek and forgive, the Government shouldn't.
Violence is violence? I doubt you believe this. Torture and murder are prosecuted differently from assault. Homicide is prosecuted differently than manslaughter. And for good reason! I don't give the torturer, murderer or assailant a pass. And I'm not giving rioters from last summer or folks that attacked the capitol a pass. Both are wrong. But they are different. No doubt about that.
