Yeah - I think they should have to buy the kid a new hat, apologize and then do a long time of community service. These types of charges are nonsense whether it was done to a kid with a Trump or Biden hat. I won't go on some tirade about civility in our country because I think it's somewhat overblown but it is crazy that people feel the need to do something like this. For whatever reason I'm reminded of that Bama fan who killed the Toomer's Corner trees. How about we just go around and be decent human beings and not jerks?
Are you really asking if a Presidential candidate condemned a hat stealing?
Imagine this being the other way around.
Has Biden condemned this yet? They were leaving his convention when this happened. I’m not finding anything.
To be fair, politicians and people in power would have to spend a lot of time condemning actions of stupid people on their "side" if we expect them to come out and publically condemn all this stuff.

Three weeks ago the President’s campaign manager was indicted for defrauding his supporters.
no one was assaulted for wearing a hat.
The left has gone from being racists against black people to racists against white people. Is there something that fundamentally upsets the left about treating people equally and with respect. I really fail to get why that simple but fundamental foundation of having a civil society is continually rejected by leftist.
I'm a little confused by the article, where is the hate crime charge?
She was throwing some punches around. Persecuted has nothing to do with anything I said. I am pointing out the level of hatred that is being created. There is nothing unique about the behavior of these two. This is the widespread anger I see in most of the so-called peaceful protesters. There is no widespread cry for equality. It is mostly spewing of hate.
she swiped a had from the ground. When someone else decided to take the hat back (presumably this person had no legal authority to do so - i.e. they are lot LEO), she swung at him. Once again, no one was assaulted for wearing a hat.
i really don't know much about it, but isn't that the language used when charging a hate crime?
Am I the only one who initially read the topic title and this part, and thought "Huh, I didn't even know they had MAGA hats 7 years ago" and "7 years seems like a long time for this to finally get to court"?
I just love posts like this from someone that seems to despise "leftists" and posts a lot about them.
Seriously. Those two women are idiots and they should be charged with something, but this is way over the top.
sentence #1. true, he is indicted. pretty easy though to indict anyone in the political spectrum. if found guilty report back.
Are you a resepcted journalist that has their career on the line and would never write for any major publication again if it turned out you were comepltely fabricating this whole thing?
so who is the "respected" journalist? if you don't have to reveal sources then you can write what you want or rather make up what you want. I mean, who is going to know you "fabricated" the whole thing? so tell me, who is going to know?
It's not easy to indict someone in the political spectrum, at all, and in fact, it's harder in this administration and in fact doing so can mean the end of one's career in federal government.
I did not call them "respected" journalists. anyone, & I mean anyone can write, make up a story & claim anonymous sources. I can-you can-anyone can.
wouldnt that make interrupting a hate crime?
Thanks, it's called law & order. I'll trust in the system. I fully agree if he is acquitted that's likely the right thing.
Oh, I see. So you need to build up your journalistic bonafides and rep, then fabricate a story, then get your editors to go along with fabricated story (or gaslight them into running with a story they cannot verify or fact-check). And you think all these people want to do this why? To take down the President? Why would they risk their careers and reputation for that?
#2...umm...how are multiple respected journalists...running with a story that has multiple sources identified as having knowledge of such things and being that high up...how is that even close to comparable with random internet guy heard from someone?
Hey we agree on something.*
right there with ya.
