OPINION — I’m not sure how Chris Brant’s recent letter passed the paper’s civility or truth tests.
Chris says “left-wing demonstrations show predominantly white middle-aged individuals… no black people or men.” False, but what’s the point?
He further implies that protestors are “recruited” by sinister community organizers, have “limited or inaccurate knowledge of ICE’s goals”, and are “mirror images of the…tactics of Mao…who murdered 4-7 million people.” A despicable false comparison! We weren’t recruited but searched out protests because we know exactly what ICE’s goals are and abhor them.
