I think hat banning and gun banning have not resolved their problems
Perhaps redirected the BLM demonstrations from dc to Chicago would be helpful
Note of the 3300 annual shootings 40 involved cops
Solution less hats?
Is it really all about Archie bunker?

We are sick and, we are tired of the double standard.

A business owner is allowed to repel MAGA logos from his bar, which is fine.

However, if a business owner makes even the slightest suggestiom to repel BLM logos from his bar, that business owner will in a matter of weeks lose their business, be socially dismembered and, cast into likely irreversible financial ruin.

Democrats and their ceaseless hypocrisy is just going to fuel a Trump 2020 victory. Even liberal icon Bill Maher largely touched on this sentiment saying, "We can't be the party of hypocritical party poopers and expect to win."

If I owned an establishment I'd ban any and all forms of political attire or promotion. People cant be civil on either side of the aisle, so much like small children who fight over a toy, the toy just needs to be taken away since nobody can behave properly.

Given how unreasonable both sides have been, your solution is actually relatively reasonable.

EMPHASIS on ASKING.


Your ignorance is not justification for an accusation of hypocrisy.
I was trying to be tactful. You were asked to not return to the business. No one who was asked wanted to go back in the first place. Why go somewhere you aren’t wanted?

Clearly my point went right over your head.

A guy who lives a couple of blocks from The Woodlands Country Club Tournament Course clubhouse, on a corner, put a "FIRE OBAMA" sign in one of his front windows during the 2012 election cycle. After Romney lost, he left the sign there until a few days after the 2016 election.

I wonder if they would allow a hat with the isis symbol on it? they probably wouldn't know what it was.

A couple of places in Kansas City banned the showing of underwear, trying to keep gangs out.

Nope. Make sure it is a red hat. The whole point is that people jump to assumptions and don't really read or pay attention anymore.

Honestly I would do it just to watch people's reactions....because people watching is so much fun!

Me thinks the bar owner is afraid that Trump might try to make 'Chicago Great Again' and that would be bad for the liberals.
