An arrest has been made in connection with a viral video in which a teenager’s Make America Great Again hat was torn off by a stranger at a San Antonio Whataburger. 30-year-old Kino Jimenez was located by robbery task force detectives in Universal City, police said, and taken into custody on a warrant for theft of person.
In a video that made the rounds on the internet starting Wednesday, 16-year-old Hunter Richard is seen eating with two friends at the Whataburger location at Nacogdoches Road and Thousand Oaks around 2 a.m. The video starts halfway through an altercation in which a man — suspected to be Jimenez — throws a drink in Richard’s face and is seen holding a “MAGA” hat that Richard later said was his.
Richard has said that the man approached the teen’s table, tore off Richard’s hat and asked why Richard was wearing it. When Richard responded that he supported President Donald Trump — with whom the hat is closely associated — he says the man threw a drink in Richard’s face and walked away with the hat.
Should be a federal hate crime.
Next time it will be a stabbing or a gunshot to the head.
....and a big bully.
Good. Also lost his job. More karma to come.
During the miserable Hussein years, I saw plenty of people wearing Obama hats, usually black people. If I had done what this guy did, it’d be front page national news and provoke a “national conversation” about the rise in hate crimes among white supremacists. Here, you get some conservative blogs and a San Antonio newspaper reporting it.
Lost their job (and possibly others given publicity/record), lost their freedom, and potentially the ability to vote.
All that for a hat.
I hope they nail that chucklestain to the wall.
Already heard he lost his job
Cuz....he was wearing his job shirt.
LOL
Sorry, little conservative bro.....but liberals are d!ckheads.
I’ll buy you a beer once you get there.
Animals. Dirty nasty animals.
Is that what all the “inclusive” liberals turned into once Herr Hitlary lost?
Wow.
They have a lot of pain to reconcile.
The MSM has spewed Trump hate 24/7 since the election. The result is unhinged leftists now think they have a right to assault Trump supporters.
The MSM will continue to spew hate, and more Trump supporters will be assaulted and or killed. Secretly, or not so secretly, this is what the dark heart of the media want; a revenge killing for their two year long temper tantrum over losing the election.
In actuality, the MSM will regret their actions in that these sorts of terroristic actions will only infuriate people; it won’t engender support for them. I always thought their slogan of “Love Trumps Hate” was hollow. Turns out it is a flat out lie.
Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.
“Love Trumps Hate”
I think they left out the apostrophe. They really mean...
“Love Trump’s Hate” (which is their excuse for assault, riots, and murder)
Drudge had it as a headline.
4chan poli guys IDed the dude (yet another crime solved by /pol). Someone went out to his house and put a Whataburger cup on his mailbox with “MAGA” written on it.
Don’t mess with /poli! Weaponized autism, baby!
The MSM has spewed the hate... then act shocked when a guy shows up with a gun trying to kill members of Congress.
One on MSNBC tonight called for Civil War if Trump nominates a Supreme Court to SCOTUS next week.
Open calls for violence and incivility.
Let them keep doing this and highlight it. Will win us the squishy confused centrists who are 40% of the American electorate.
This bully thinks he is a bad ass picking on a 16 year old kid.
I’d like to set up a meeting with this bully and Rufio Panman,
the man who knocked out that violent Antifa dude in Portland.
Rufio would knock this bully out cold too.
Just drop the e at the end and our side has a new slogan!
This bum has had 4 or 5 DWIs and was likely drunk when the video was made.
Need to continue to highlight violence by the left and their stupidity. It’s helping us win over the average American voter who barely follows politics.
If you had done this to an obama supporter the DOJ would be getting up close and personal with you.
>>Someone went out to his house and put a Whataburger cup on his mailbox with “MAGA” written on it.
Just wait. This Leftist bully will be whining about “death threats” and try to become the victim in this.
That's why the bully chose to pick on a teenage kid. Try that with a grownup and the result would be potentially fatal.
Great news! Thanks for posting.
