A man allegedly attacked a 68-year-old cancer survivor at a garage sale in Tennessee, punching him in the jaw and dislodging a tooth because the older man was a Trump supporter.

Another skin head for Trump loses teeth.  Bet he doesn't wear his hat to the next garage sale.

Maybe if the guy who bought the stapler had put staples in it...it would have turned out different.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

This is how it starts.

Those of us who oppose fascism wherever we see it would likely have grabbed a bookend off the table and educated the ignorant dingleberry who punched the old man.  Then you have a bigger problem when the ambulance comes because it doesn't matter who was in the wrong originally.  And of course the press would turn it all into man bites dog story.

It is impossible to stay neutral when conditions are so toxic.  Like it or not you have to choose a side and that comes with its own inherent problems.  I really hate what I see happening to this country.

He was a Lib. They don't believe in loading and handling staplearms.

Yeah. People seem to think security cameras are the be all and end all, but they don't help if you're the one getting hit. However, I don't think a jury here would convict for defending an elderly guy undergoing chemo.

He should be able to wear his damned hat anywhere he wants to without fear of getting physically attacked and assaulted.  These aholes that espouse "freedom of speech/expression for me but not for thee" need to get a nice hard slap-down for their SOP solution to everything they don't approve of.  They should try that here in Texas and see how much lead they get.

You are not with the program. Don't you understand. The anti-Trump Nazis think it is a great thing to beat the crap out of old men and pregnant women if they have a Trump hat on.


Anyone supporting Trump deserves whatever happens to them. They sub-human scum. The only regret of the anti-Trumps is that the old man wasn't killed. That is what he deserves.


Anti-Trump Nazis are a big reason I am in favor of concealed carry. That anti-Trump fanatical nutcase, talking about getting a gun, would have punched one time, and no more.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

I have my differences the orange menace, but this should be classified a hate crime IMO.

I'm going to watch CNN to see if they cover this

But in all seriousness, people like this are dangerous.  Like this idiot or up to the one that shot those  republicans,  they believe they're working for a higher cause.  Punching an old man who disagrees with you or shooting people who are on the political opposite of you is justified because you must do everything you must,  even if it's unpleasant and terrible,  to stop what you see as a greater evil
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

   My old work van hasn't been 'keyed' (again) yet since I replaced this   with this    That alone is a testament to the Trumpsters being a little more tolerant, though it's still early.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

You're just asking for trouble.  If you want a real test, put that on your Jaguar.
