Blatant bias
I get that the editors have a left-leaning bias. But stop using right-wing rudeness as the only example of specific people being rude. It's an insult to the intelligence of your readers, and displays your own lack of credibility.
Oh, and by the way? So does downgrading left-wing criminality to rudeness because you feel that right-wingers are just that bad. If you can't be fair to both sides, act like the adults you presumably are and leave out specific examples entirely.
