MAGA: An Excuse For Leftist Hate
26 Oct 2019
Leftists are getting more violent, and I believe that it will continue to rise as the right continues to thwart their “progress.” What started as calling supporters of President Trump slanderous names, has escalated into physical violence. And they’re simply being emboldened by the lack of Leftist leadership (Democrat politicians) condemning their actions. Let’s take a look at a couple of highlights from this past summer, when people simply wear a hat that says MAGA, Make America Great Again.

A Vans shoe store employee was fired after he allegedly cursed at a 14-year-old customer because the teen was wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat.
I love the way they use the word alleged in the news story when in the Twitter video the man admits to telling the kid to “F**k off.”

This report isn’t about violence, but does show the delusional claims people make regarding the hat. Jeffrey Omari, a visiting assistant professor at Gonzaga University School of Law, wrote in the American Bar Association’s ABA Journal about a student who was wearing a MAGA hat in class:
“his shiny red MAGA hat was like a siren spewing derogatory racial obscenities”
He also refers to the slogan as:
“an undeniable symbol of white supremacy and hatred toward certain nonwhite groups.”

Illinois state senator apologizes for staged Trump assassination photos at fundraiser
But what do you expect: Leftists holding a fundraiser for Democrat State Senator Martin Sandoval perform a mock assassination on a faux President Trump.
A political fundraiser for @SenatorSandoval simulates an assassination attempt against a mock @realDonaldTrump decked out in Mexican garb. Looks like a man pointed a fake assault weapon at the fake President to pose for a picture. pic.twitter.com/MlT9zjB1mn

Man in MAGA hat allegedly doused demonstrators with bear spray at Santa Monica Pier
Video from the scene posted on social media and YouTube showed Dempsey walking up to a man who was lying on the ground and spraying him directly in the face at close range, KTLA reported.
I’d be remiss if I didn’t include stories of people in MAGA hats committing acts of violence, but they seem to be rare. In this case, the article talks about Dempsey spraying a man lying on the ground with Pepper Spray, which is a really stupid thing to do, but what the story doesn’t mention is that there’s a lot of pushing and shoving prior to Dempsey’s attack. The video doesn’t make it clear as to who started the pushing and shoving, but my money would be on the “peaceful protesters.”
Dempsey’s actions are still inexcusable.
Here’s the video:
What to make of this?
If anyone is guilty of a phobia (irrational fear), it’s the Left with their reaction to MAGA hats.
To be certain, however, in academic settings “making America great again” suggests a return to the days when women and people of color were denied access to these very institutions [1].
No. It doesn’t. And to believe that makes you a fool.
