SAPD: Suspect in assault over MAGA hat at Whataburger arrested
MySanAntonio ^

Posted on 07/06/2018 3:00:51 AM PDT by TigerClaws

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.

I suspect it wont be long before I am refused service in an establishment because I am wearing a Yankee’s shirt and the owner is a Red Sox fan. This is the world the tolerant RATS are making.

Is the any word on his conspirator who was videoing it? This looked like a planned attack and Kino Jimenez wasn't the only one involved.

He’s looking at more than that. He’s already got multiple convictions on his record and this is Texas.

I'm hoping for a felony with him still in jail or on probation on election day in 2020 so he can't even vote against President Trump. Too bad Texas isn't a permanent disenfranchisement state upon a felony conviction.

Hell, out on twitter the libtards are already running hard with a lie that the bully heard the kids talking about lynching black people and that is why he did what he did. There was a “witness” that “heard that”. Speculation is that witness was the guy in the back of the video (making his own video BTW) who also walked out with this Kino guy.

“Next time it will be a stabbing or a gunshot to the head.”

Unfortunately, you are probably right. It will no be far off when the assaults are more violent. And that is why the SCOTUS needs to “completely clear up” any misconceptions about the Second Amendment, and clear away all state laws that seek to preempt the Second Amendment in any way (which is all of them).

I wonder what Mr. Jiminez’ immigration status is.

“Just drop the e at the end and our side has a new slogan!”

Love Trump’s Hat!

It took a while for this to register in my ‘foggy morning’ brain but it’s good. Thanks for brightening the day.

I believe I will use that as my tagline for a while. Hope others join me.

Trump needs to make much more out of these assaults on his supporters. And putting the heat on Republicans to do the same.

The victim should sue Maxine Waters. Didn’t she encourage this ?

I would hope that it's just a missing /s tag.
And I'm prolly reading the wrong intent into it or some such.
I know my responses are sometimes misconstrued 'cause folks can't see me "smiling and winking" during some snark. d;^)

He uses the "N-word" while doing the assault and battery (tossing the drink = battery).

Well, if you really want to get technical about it, there never was assault because there never were any (imminent) threats of physical harm. For example, "I'm going to kick your ass your if you don't take that hat off".

Secondly, there's not really battery involved either, since theft was involved. For battery to apply, after the assault above, the perp would then begin to physically attack the victim for not taking off his hat.

No, what we really have here is robbery, as it was an act of theft accompanied by physical battery. A & B is almost always a misdemeanor - think bar fight/scuffle. I wouldn't be surprised if SA DA decides to charge a felony with possible enhancements given priors, age difference and political angle.

Assault on a minor. That should be good for a few years in the iron bar hotel. Of course, I know I’m only dreaming. I’m thinking of the old America. We’re the new America now where the thought of 3 days on probation strikes terror in the hearts of criminals everywhere. LOL.

Really is a heavy price to pay for him personally if this thing goes in the expected direction. But his lack of common sense, manners, self-control and civility is his responsibility

He will be made an example, and hopefully will be a help to others of his ilk
