Letter to the editor: Hypocrisy on Capitol riots

The recent news has been all about the riots and break-ins at the Capitol Jan. 6. I feel bad that people died because of major problems in this country between the two political parties.

But there is a lot of hypocrisy going around. Democrats are in favor of bills that destroy the lives of babies that could live but are aborted.

The Capitol building is made of brick and mortar, concrete and glass and filled with wooden furniture; all of this can easily be fixed or replaced.

People talk about the pain endured by these politicians, but they are still alive. What about the pain endured by business owners across the country last year? What about their losses from rioters and looters, causing some businesses to close down for good?

A lot of hypocrites spoke during the impeachment hearings, but only told one side of the issue.
