Woman punches man in Broadway bar over MAGA-style birthday hat

In every Totalitarian Society, individuals have Free Speech. But those who oppose tyranny face consequences.

 

I think when you put your hands on another, it had better be in self defense. I dont carry a gun do keep a knife that snaps right open, with a razors edge. If someone puts their hands on me, over my hat, I will use it to defend myself. Like my house keys, I go nowhere without it.

 

I keep wishing one of those a-holes would throw a punch at me...please make my day!

 

What you consider tyranny and Totalitarian Society, others may not. Why do you wan't to take their voice away?

Isn't that limiting their freedom? They have just as much right as you do to shape the country in the manner they want it to be.

 

I agree with you here. Don't get me wrong.

If you believe in something strongly enough, even hatred, you should be willing to accept ALL the consequences of your actions.

It's why I don't resort to physical violence. Even if it ever became worth it to risk MY life, it wouldn't be worth it to risk the lives of my family.

 

I actually have a Trump hat, I dont often wear it as I'm not a "hat" guy, anyways. But would if I were, so inclined. The "hate" is people assaulting others, over a hat.

 

this thread took a hilarious turn the last few pages.

good stuff

 

Of course tyrants do not view their tyranny as tyranny.

Sadly, many people, mostly Leftists are willing to resort to violence in order to silence other's expression of Free Speech. In my opinion, individuals working to limit other's Free Speech should be regarded as Enemies of People.

 

Some people think that they can walk through Harlem after dark wearing a KKK Outfit.

Other people would consider it a "Bad Idea".

But, yeah--America is a "Free Country".

That said, there is a certain amount of "discretion" one must consider in exercising their "freedom".

Of course, I would NEVER advocate Politically-Based "violence" under any circumstances.

And, obviously the Perp in the OP should be prosecuted.

 

Why not? Just today you defended a would be arsonists and you almost daily, play apologist for it, right here at PF. You either attempt to minimize it or pull your trademark "RW plant" anytime it's posted about, without the scantest of evidence. Why just now, you tried to justify it.

 

Nah.

You got me all wrong, FB.

That is a total mischaracterization.

I just call 'em like I see 'em.

Anyway, I hope the Perp in the OP gets prosecuted and hopefully the victim recovers from these Life-Threatening Injuries.

Best of Luck to all. #MAGA

 

Sounds like you think he was "asking for it" because of his attire.....

 

Thanks for proving my point and trying to minimize this violence. There was no "mischaracterization" in my post. You do exactly what I said and everybody knows it, too!

 

Thats how they do.

 

Sounds like you are advocating for political violence.

 

Here again, you are minimizing political violence...again.

 

It certainly appears that way.

 

I'm reporting it.

 

Thank you...

In THIS case, yes I care about his situation alone. I certainly don't care about the insane woman who punched him, I just care that justice be served. Yes and in my above statement I noted a bunch of things can draw one's attention, which you did deflect on but that's fine.

Well that is clear! He wore a friggin hat, yes reckless hooligan!

 

But if you were to wear that hat to a place you know had a whole lot of liberal-democrat trump haters, you would be putting yourself at risk of attack, regardless of if you had hate or not. No worries or cares about that?

 

Again, my opinion about that man has been adjusted based on the new information that I have learned. Do you want to discuss the broader topic, or do you just want to complain?

 

Yes, it's concerning that others would attack people over a hat. In fact, it's downright deplorable. Are you not concerned?

 

You are free to your opinion. And I am free to interpret it as I see fit.

But hey, keep going on inciting anger in violence in others, and justifying it by believing that you are not a bad person, because you are not AS BAD as the other side.

There are plenty of ways to hurt someone that involve no physical violence at all. Do you really want to tick them off enough that they decide to have them done to you?

 

Don’t feed it.

 

What exactly have you learned?
