Same place, same time, different people...

The MAGA Beach Bash was predominately gen-Xers and the Go Topless Jeep event was predominately millennials.

The videos I've seen all show younger millennials causing all the problems.

I'm not. I am looking at reality. You should try it sometime.

Look at the video. What do you see? Jeeps and trucks. Lots of them, when MAGA flags on them. What else? People with booze containers in their hands, praising Trump. Same event, same people. You are only fooling yourself.

They're already looked down upon by most of the law abiding, civilized folks I know. I wouldn't think this would be something that would exactly be beneficial in combatting their already sullied image. But they seem to be proud of it so who knows.

The funny thing to me, are the Trump haters, who have nothing to do with these people show up to say some of the most hateful things about people they don't even know, who haven't broken any laws, and were having some fun on the beach. And this ONLY because they support Trump. It seems to drive them absolutely crazy.

BTW, The indignant self righteous are the last to realize they are the ones held in lowest regard.

it's usually related to self-loathing.

It's not just people like me calling attention to the lawless nature of the Trump supporters on the beach that day, law enforcement and emergency services were as well. I believe another poster linked a couple of articles about the damage they caused. You should read them.

I saw the video, with all the loud millennials with their Jeeps, trucks, beer and MAGA gear. Accidents happen when booze is involved. I saw that video, and first thing I thought was "thank god we dont allow that in Florida". You need to learn to accept reality. You can't just always deny everything. They used to allow cars on the beach in Daytona, FL, and accidents happened. It is practically unavoidable when you mix booze, large cars, and pedestrians.

Whatever floats their boat.

Personally, I'd've rather been on the other side of the South that day -- in the mountains of Asheville, NC.

Big drum circle going on at the very same time. But to each their own.

It's funny isn't it how the Trump supporting conservative will berate others for not taking responsibility and owning up to their actions yet refuse to do the same when it involves their own.
