The Los Angeles County Sheriff boldly called out ‘woke’ politician Gavin Newsom for his silence after Larry Elder was egged by a woman wearing a gorilla mask.
Sheriff Alex Villanueva asked, “How is this not a hate crime?”
He called out ‘woke privilege’ and the lack of outrage from our politicians over the attack. The sheriff also tagged Gavin Newsom in the tweet sending a message to Newsom that he should have spoken out in support of Elder even though they are on opposite teams.
“Where is the outrage from our politicians?”
QUESTION: How is this not a hate crime?
ANSWER: Because “woke privilege” means a white woman can wear a gorilla mask and attack a black man without fear of being called a racist.

If this had happened to a black Democrat, it would be all over the media, and politicians would be everywhere expressing their outrage.
Reports that someone also fired a pellet gun Wednesday, hitting one of Elder’s staffers, never hit the mainstream media. There were no injuries, but there is a search for the suspect.
