Make Fifty Great Again

Quote
Daniel Sprague of Staten Island said he and his wife were celebrating his 50th birthday in Nashville and he was wearing a hat that said “Make Fifty Great Again” and a shirt that said “Making America Great since 1970.”

But suddenly, he told Nashville’s WSMV-TV, a woman approached him and took a swing, striking him in the face before fleeing.

Even something similar to a MAGA hat triggers them.

'Even something similar to a MAGA hat triggers them.'

I wear a Philadelphia Phillies cap a lot of the time. It's the same color red, but has a big white stylized letter P on it. More than once I've wondered as I put it on if some moron is going to assume it's a MAGA cap just because of the color and try to make an issue out of it.

On one of the youtube channels I watch the guy worn a red hat instead of the his usual black hat and there were some interesting comments from some SJWs to say the least. The hat was just red, no logo, nothing.

I have a collection of caps from little league teams I've coached, include Reds and Nationals, I should start wearing them.

Has it been established that the alleged perp is a Bernie Bro?  I've read that he expressed contempt for Trump, but that's all.


Can't find it now, but I remember reading he was affiliated with the Bernie campaign.

Anytime I'm wearing my Phillies cap I'm also wearing a .38 Special, so...

Oh, and it's OK, these attacks aren't a problem. Everyone knows that the left is so tolerant and loving that it's perfectly fine to Bash the Fash...

There are a few bad apples from time to time, but that's nothing compared to the armed gangs of white supremacists roving around Richmond, refusing to hurt anyone, and picking up their litter.

I suppose the College Republicans should be thankful that they weren't run over with a van.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".
