Barayasarra letter: Leftist hypocrites

It’s interesting that when a group that leans right has a peaceful protest in Berkeley, CommieFornia, and it’s violently interrupted by a leftist group, the media immediately labels it anarchist violence and anarchists are to blame and then when the left have a protest and it’s violently interrupted by a KKK or other white supremacy group the leftist media blames the Republicans any way they can. If this doesn’t scare everyone we truly are in a world of hurt and our days are numbered. It’s sad, when you agree with a liberal you are enlightened but when you disagree you are labeled a bigot, homophobe or hater. What about the lack of outcry from liberals commenting on Kathy Griffin taking back her apology for the fake severed Trump head? About the only time I hear the word hate anymore it’s coming out of a liberal’s mouth when you disagree with them. They are still mad because they didn’t get their trophy last November and they will stop at nothing to take this administration down. There are bad things on both sides but these lefties will only see what they want to see and they are the worst kind of hypocrites.
