Here’s a longer version that gives context. Schumer’s remarks were directed more at Republicans in general than Kavanaugh or Gorsuch in particular. “Reap the whirlwind “ refers to the coming election, not violence against any person.
That speech by Schumer took place in March. The threat to Kavanaugh occurred in June-three months later. There is no evidence that the man arrested near the Kavanaugh residence, who was from California, was at that rally. It’s ridiculous to think he was inspired by a three month old speech that he probably never heard.
There were no violent demonstrations even after the official ruling came down. No property damage by demonstrators. No personal threats connected to protesters
Unlike Jan. 6, where there was a direct connection between the President’s speech and the attack on the Capitol. An attack in which scores of police officers were injured and public officials were threatened with hanging.

Schumer clearly broke the law, as stated above, with his intentional intimidating and threatening remarks right in front of the SC building. Each and every one of the home paraders broke the same law, as well. But, but, but...where is the punishment?
I have yet to be shown what law Trump broke, when he said: "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."...speaking at the Ellipse, a 52-acre park south of the White House fence.
Your comparisons make no sense!
