Targeting either side is sad

Tue., Aug. 20, 2019

Interesting article in a recent Spokesman-Review: “Spokane police investigate rumors of ‘hate camp’,” (Aug. 10). One hate group (“Antifa”) tattling on another hate group (“The Base”). Apparently there is no professional courtesy among hate groups.

And while we’re on the subject of hate groups, how about adding United Artists and the people who conceived and made the movie, “The Hurt,” which depicts shooting of “deplorables” wearing MAGA hats? At least they had the good sense to not release it, but it was made. It is sad when folks on either side of the political aisle are targeted because of their political inclinations.
