(Photo by RINGO CHIU \/ AFP)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 8:37 AM PT \u2013 Friday, September 10, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder responds to a hateful attack against him by a woman wearing a gorilla mask while on a campaign stop. In an interview on Thursday, Elder said if he were a liberal and attacked by a white woman, the left would be screaming about systemic racism.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate tweet, he stressed \u201cthe intolerant left will not stop us\u201d from recalling embattled Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-Calif.). Elder pointed out the incident was much worse than it seems because his staffers were also allegedly attacked.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today I kicked off the Recall Express bus tour. Before we even left Los Angeles, my security detail was physically assaulted, shot with a pellet gun, and hit with projectiles. The intolerant left will not stop us. We will recall Gavin Newsom. We will save California.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Larry Elder (@larryelder) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/larryelder\/status\/1435768447732908032?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Additionally, Elder said the attackers falsely accused him of not caring about Black people. However, the candidate pointed out a major goal of his campaign is to tackle homelessness, which disproportionately affects Black Californians.<\/p>\n<p>This comes as the sheriff of Los Angeles called out the woman who attacked Elder. In a tweet on Thursday, Alex Villanueva asked why the incident wasn\u2019t considered a hate crime. He then continued on to answer his own question saying \u201cbecause woke privilege means a white woman can wear a gorilla mask and attack a Black man without fear of being called a racist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Police Department reported that while no charges have been filed, the investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/l-a-school-district-takes-heat-for-vaccine-mandate\/\">L.A.
