It may well be the case!
E.g the many and severe riots that broke out after the death of the lifelong petty criminal and drug addict George Floyd were outrageous and unacceptable!
E.g. when a high ranking U.S. Senator (Chuck Schumer) threatens two US Justices (Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch) with violence, then the Rubicon was crossed! I believe, Chuck Schumer was never officially admonished nor censored for his remarks! He half-heartedly apologized for it later.
"Over the past nine years, Americans have watched mobs topple, decapitate, and deface our statues. They have threatened our saints and desecrated our graves. Churches have been firebombed, torched, and stoned.
Activists, reporters, politicians, and judges have faced threats at their homes. Families have endured harassment, students and speakers have been assaulted, and ordinary citizens have been besieged while police stood by — or looked the other way.
Nine years of warning signs piled up. We ignored them. We sped past every flashing signal, comforting ourselves with America’s deep well of goodwill and tolerance for disruptive behavior. We closed our eyes and hoped the storm would blow over.
It wasn’t just statues and churches under attack — though history shows that when mobs destroy symbols of faith and culture, they soon target people next. Violence on campus offered some of the earliest and clearest warnings. By 2016 and 2017, speakers such as the Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro, provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, and the Claremont Institute’s Charles Murray required heavy police protection. Others were assaulted outright. ..."
