And the logic is pretty faulty too, since Theodore Olson argued against California's Prop 8 before the Supreme Court and is against discrimination of gay marriage, that must make him a lefty too?
Not at all. We can't and shouldn't assume ideology from cases lawyers take on alone.
Meanwhile Jerad Miller was supporting Cliven Bundy's protests, making threats precisely mentioned in the OP.
Pretty reductive, but not surprising.
It's not as if the Cliven Bundy situation dealt only with right wing beliefs, after all. The way the OP puts it, though, you'd expect everyone who went to Bundy's ranch to start a war. It's not happening.
