You probably thought it was a joke to say, "If Trump comes out against suicide, all his opponents will go out and kill themselves in protest."

Trump opposes killing gays, so LGBT advocates are now basically saying that killing gays really isn't that bad.

You missed the sarcasm. :roll:

81-Year-Old Man Wearing MAGA Hat Attacked in NJ Supermarket: Prosecutors

Quote:
An 81-year-old man was attacked in a New Jersey supermarket after someone confronted him about the MAGA hat he was wearing, prosecutors say.

The Franklin Township resident was shopping at a store on Elizabeth Avenue around 3:30 p.m. Monday when someone confronted him about the hat, Somerset County prosecutors said Tuesday.

The attack left the man with minor injuries, prosecutors said. He declined treatment at the scene, according to prosecutors.

Prosecutors didn’t immediately provide additional details about the attack or the suspect they’re searching for.
It wasn't immediately clear if the attack was caught on surveillance tape. The incident is under investigation.

As the Left has told us this week, Cohen is the man to believe! :lol:

sorry, mine was the actual printed newspaper copy, basically he sneaked in an F word, blurrily, in the middle margin between panels, in a snarky backhand to orange.

Deranged Trump-hater starts screaming at man in coffee shop:

Political polarization sparks confrontation at Starbucks, triggering online fury

In the latest example of social-media fueled extremism, a heated confrontation over politics in a Palo Alto Starbucks on Monday has gone viral nationwide, leading to reported death threats and also calls for greater dialogue and empathy.

It began when Palo Alto resident Rebecca Parker Mankey attempted to shame an elderly white man wearing a red Make America Great Again hat as he sat in the coffeehouse — an encounter she later wrote about on social media. Calling him a "hater of brown people," Mankey said she yelled at him and addressed Starbucks customers and employees to join her in her effort. She said she left the store but soon returned and continued to yell at him. Mankey said she was "heartbroken" that other white people didn't stand up against the man wearing what has become for some a symbol of hate. She followed him out of the store to the parking lot, where she continued to berate and swear at him.

She called the man "Nazi scum" and threatened to post pictures of him on social media, which she then did, along with her version of the incident on her Facebook page and on Twitter. She asked the public for help finding him — "I want him to have nowhere to hide," she wrote -- a practice called "doxing," or posting personal contact information to encourage threats and harassment.

Get real, people in MAGA hats are glossing over centuries of institutional hatred. :roll:

Just because things are "great" now doesn't mean America was never problematic.

Watching the video ...

Crazy woman fired from job after accosting 74 year old Jewish MAGA hat wearing man.

She called him a "racist, NAZI, and added he hates brown people ..."

"She didn't want to discuss the issues .. she just wanted to shout NAZI".

Did I tell you to take this personally? Of course this is OK, I'm exercising my constitutional right.

I've pledged allegiance before. I wouldn't do so today without a VERY good reason.

We set a high bar for presidents that I don't see Trump so much as reaching for. Until he puts more humans on the moon, he's full of hot air & McDonald's as far as I'm concerned.

The red hat: It's like a crucifix causing hidden demons to scream in agony, or a tribble causing disguised Klingons to reveal themselves. :D


Customer is kicked out of Washington DC barbecue restaurant for berating a fellow diner wearing a MAGA hat, calling him 'racist' and a 'Nazi'

In a series of scathing tweets TJ Helmstetter revealed that he was ejected from the Hill Country Barbecue and Market

Another display of tolerance for diversity on campus.

Student attacked for wearing MAGA hat on Fourth of July

When 22-year-old University of Florida student Daniel Weldon sent a Snapchat to his girlfriend of his Fourth of July outfit — a Make America Great Again hat, American flag tank top, Trump pin and other patriotic regalia — she predicted he would get attacked.

Turns out, she was right.

As Weldon grabbed a late-night snack on July Fourth across the street from campus he said he was surrounded by a group of college-aged peers who verbally harassed him, pushed him, ripped a Trump pin off his shirt, and tried to swipe his MAGA hat.

“It just goes to show there is a lot of people on the Left that don’t care or know anything about you, but they see one aspect of who you are and instantly have this blind hatred for you,” Weldon told The College Fix in a telephone interview Sunday. “It’s extremely disappointing.”

Republican politics lately seems to be all about who is the greatest victim.

You're asking us to tolerate intolerance, it's oxymoronic & tired. MAGA hats are about supposedly improving the country by removing certain people. The truth is that there is no certainty about people, that's not how people work.

No you're being asked not to commit crimes. Theft and assault.

This 100% unironic tweet is possibly the "best" one I've seen yet.

https://mobile.twitter.com/rezaaslan/st ... 8592209920

Quote:
After today there is no longer any room for nuance. The President is a white nationalist terror leader. His supporters - ALL OF THEM - are by definition white nationalist terror supporters. The MAGA hat is a KKK hood. And this evil, racist scourge must be eradicated from society.


Lol. Riiiiight. If this were true, with their numbers and the amount of guns in the USA, which are more concentrated on the Republican side, the United States would be a white ethnostate right now.
