Leave them alone! If they want to look dumb, on that campus, with them hats! As long as they're not bothering or making physical threats to anyone....!
It's a bait! The minute someone 'engages' with them about he hat, stereotypes of "angry, black, socialist, *******s," etc come from the other side, giving them ammunition! Don't fall for the bait......!
Would that liberals/leftist and identity groups that act violently would leave them alone and respect their free speech. But that's not what has been happening the past several years.
The ability for residents to express wide spread criticism of anything and everything is one of the main principles of the US Constitution. Please help me understand what you are proposing here, are you saying that the government should take action to make sure that if you wear a MAGA hat in public nobody has the right to criticize you for it?
They definitely should not have "the right" to tell you to get F'd and rip it off your head......
Once again, can you read? My post stated that it was wrong for the anyone to grab/knock the girl's hat. However, those girls knew that they would likely cause a scene. Who is surprise at the outcome? Not me.
I can read, thank you.
Can you think?
I am trying to educate you on the concept of our natural right to peacefully express our political opinion.
Doing so should not cause a scene. It does so only because some people do not understand that others are permitted to hold and express political opinions that differ from their own.
You do not have a right to commit assault, battery, and theft against another for peacefully expressing a political opinion.
When you commit assault, battery, and theft against another for peacefully expressing a political opinion, it is YOU who causes the scene.
I am not surprised that some people cannot refrain from causing a scene in reaction to a peaceful, lawful expression of a political opinion.
I am saying merely that such reaction is inappropriate and in the case of the HU students, unlawful.
Is that too difficult a notion for you to grasp? Sorry if it is, because I cannot dumb it down any further.
Its not a deflect. You simply are unable or unwilling to see the perfectly good analogy.

Can you read?
There is no "however".
The 1st Amendment of the US Constitution protects our freedom to peacefully express our political opinions.
Have you ever read the Constitution? Have you ever read the 1st Amendment?
There is no "however" in the 1st Amendment.

Problematic to some degree?
Yes. But, that's only because some people incredibly do not understand that that we all have the freedom to peacefully express our political opinions, and because people like you make excuses for the idiots who have either never read the 1st Amendment or are intellectually unable to understand it and lack the ability to control their emotions.

In my opinion the girls were assaulted. Once a battery occurs (and a battery did occur) after aggressive postures and language, its very likely that such aggressive postures and language constitute an assault.

Dude, I'm a white person and I can tell you that white people are not even sort of oppressed ANYWHERE.
Well, maybe in Russia if they're gay, but other than that? Nope.

Dude, your race doesn't make your opinion any more authentic or your argument any more valid.
