White nationalist gets 4 years in prison for physically assaulting a woman in brawl with Antifa. Good. Appropriate. Law-and-order prevails. Such violence is illegal & immoral. Now, can the same standards apply to Antifa violence against @MrAndyNgo & others?https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-capitol-brawl-white-nationalist-sentenced-20190703-story.html …

Replying to @michaelshermer @MrAndyNgo
Excerpt: "Prominent Bay Area anti-fascist leader Yvonne Felarca is among the three counterprotesters facing charges, including assault and inciting and participating in a riot. Her attorney previously said she was among those stabbed during the confrontation."

So in this case, more antifa were arrested and charged than fascists. The news report you cite rather undermines your implication that police and prosecutors are harder on violent right wingers than violent left wingers.
