Tolerant leftists attacking people because they're wearing a MAGA hat has become all too familiar these days, especially on college campuses. This time it took place at Texas State University and unlike other campuses where police turn a blind eye to these type attacks, police immediately took action.

I find the unhinged anger, the disrespect toward police, and the arrogant self righteousness of those horrible girls very troubling, because these are the people who will one day be in charge of this country and nobody seems to give a damn.


 
Just another sign that the bad old days of hate and division have returned under Trump.

They must have learned that behavior from our current president.
 
Those girlies must have really badly assaulted his hat to call the police on them!

Trump wasn't the person arrested. It was 4 loony lefty liberals.

The alternative was to explain to them what happens when your nose accidentally runs into a fist. The victim did the right thing.

You are correct, the racist hatred of the far left has returned under Trump... At least they haven't put any Jim Crow laws in place or tried to put white conservatives in internment camps yet... But they are definitely headed down that road.

You guys started before he was inaugurated! That’s a real shame!

Political differences are no excuse for violence.

Good, violence is never acceptable even when someone is trying to provoke with the wearing of an item of clothing that can and has provoked angry responses. Walking around a very liberal place with that hat will provoke and people should laugh at people who do that but never ever ever physically assault them.

Here are some observations, nobody said leftist are tolerant against intolerance. Wearing the hat of a known Mexican insulting/immigrants harassing/Muslim banning idiot is seen by many tolerant people as a sign of an intolerant person. But as stated above, never a justification for violence.

But this is another example of "rightists" ridiculous hypocrisy towards "leftists". Don't misunderstand me, leftists have hypocrisy too.

But this is the issue, you are complaining about the damned leftists but sadly when the "leftist" complain about the treatment of journalists and protesters at Trump rallies who are wearing something "rightists" disapprove of, the Orange Oaf even encourages violence or non-violent but aggressive attitudes to protesters/newsmedia/journalists.

If find the unhinged anger, the disrespect towards other people, police too and the arrogant self righteousness of Trump supporters to protesters and media equally worrisome and troublesome but unlike the left politicians who abhor (most of them at least) this kind of violence, the right wing Trump supporters are being actively egged on by their Orange Master which is much more troublesome. And also worrisome is the total lack of disgust among Trump supporters of the actions of their own. The problem now is that their leader now is in charge and he does not care nor do his supporters.
 
It's not a hate crime if you attack people based on characteristics they do have control over. There can be no civility with a cult of racists who want to destroy democratic and Democratic institutions.
 
Why are we defending violence? Is that the new partisan past time?
 
The right can rejoice it found bad behavior by a Democrat, so they can ignore a million times worse behavior by their side (including trump, who understood he can 'shoot someone' and not lose any supporters, and told his supporters that they were such mindless followers of his).

Democrats can say the girl was wrong and behaved badly during and after the incident. You almost never hear the right do anything but deny and excuse their bad behavior.

I doubt they will be charge of ****. At most they will be teaching at colleges trying to program the next generation with their leftist bull****. Assuming colleges don't wise up and get rid of teacher tenure.

Uh.yes it is.
 
The humanity, some young radical leftists knocked their hats off and immediately got arrested. It's not like they were armed with full tactical gear, an arsenal of deadly weapons and an ideology that says there is a Jewish conspiracy to commit genocide against white people using open borders. Who am I more worried about, kind of pansy leftists who get into a minor altercation at a college, or Right Wing terrorists who regularly from their online cesspools spawn the most vicious acts of hate?

Will have to think long and hard on this one.
 
It doesn't show things unfolding so can't really comment on that but if she hit anyone then that's not cool at all, violence isn't okay.

Don't get me started on the idiots walking around recording it all on their phones like the girl that was asked to leave by the Police Officer. Idiot.

My first reaction is to think, rot in hell little girls. Wallow in your jackbooted ignorance and the indoctrinated cesspool you've allowed yourselves to swim in.

But then, my heart kind of breaks. Kids today are being weaponized by really bad people, and it's going to have lifelong implications for them.

And that saddens me for them, and it angers me towards the people who are doing it because they know they are screwing them, perhaps for life.
 
I don’t condone violence. People should wear what they want, though do so at their own risk especially when wearing political slogans and statements of any lean. You’re pretty much asking to be ****ed with.

I agree with your statement until you go from free speech to violence. One is constitutionally protected, the other isn't. Had this been a matter of a yelling match or degrading the red hats or whatever, I would say free speech applies to both sides. Assault changes the formula.

That being said, this thread is largely just another example of partisanship. I leave it up to the reader to figure out whether I mean the OP or the replies, but anyone who got offended by the last sentence needs to examine themselves.

It seems you excuse any and all crimes that are less than murder in a church.

How tolerant of you.

I have continually condemned all political violence, including that which isn't murder. However, the Right wants to make Antifa into the chief terrorist threat, when again I will just call you all back to reality where Far Right terrorists are going on these killing sprees. I am concerned about all political violence, just concerned more about the Far Right for very concrete and demonstrable reasons.

Clothing should not incite any kind of violence. People should be allowed to wear any clothing that supports their political beliefs without persecution.
