I have never seen anyone wearing one of those hats. Here, I’d never do it. Not that I own one. Point is, you wear that, you’re looking for trouble around here.
Not at all condoning what was done to the man, but in this case, it’s like wearing a crop top and a short mini-skirt to a bar and then complaining when you get groped.
B fn s....if a person can’t wear a MAGA hat without being assaulted this country is finished......the left has demonized Trump and all his supporters....I’ve seen plenty of idiot sobs wearing hellary, bammy, Che, mao, and other leftist tripe apparel but never assaulted them. I figure this is the USA and you are allowed to be stupid...
In California, wearing an American flag is seen the same way as a MAGA hat.
Guess we should just surrender.......
By the same token, would you feel if someone was wearing an Obama t-shirt it would just be asking for trouble?
Feel sorry for you. There is no way I could live like you do in blue country. I have seen people wearing MAGA hats here, happy that I live where freedom is still the American way. I would also be fine with the Obama t-shirt. Freedom to express their views without getting beat up.
The ‘asking for trouble’ comment bothers me. The other comment bothers me just as much, don’t are if you walked into a bar naked, doesn’t mean you should get groped.
I’m originally from NJ (but thankfully escaped to Texas about 19 years ago). Though it is almost unrecognizable from a political POV vs. what it was in the 60s or 70s, you still have freedom to say or wear whatever you’d like to say or wear.
Anyone assaulting a person for wearing a provocative piece of clothing is guilty of a criminal act and should be prosecuted. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER give in to these people - because the end of that road is the USSR, East Germany, Cuba and Venezuela. Part of the reason that I’m glad that I left NJ is that here in Texas people are simply not afraid to say what they think - and virtually no one is ever assaulted for saying differently than the majority (and we have Dem enclaves...and they generally don’t assault our side, either).
Sorry to say this, because we don’t know each other, but your attitude is pretty cowardly. What you choose to do is, of course, your business, but if we conservatives give up the right to voice or wear our opinions, then we’ve already lost. SCREW the other side, I don’t CARE if they don’t like my views. In fact, I LIKE to burst their bubble that “everyone knows that Trump is a racist, etc.” They need a dose of reality, which is that they are generally full of crap, ill-informed and illogical.
