Why can’t some people wear pants that fit instead of sagging and showing their butts? What is the point?

Nah...what she needs is a deprogramming. And maybe even an exorcism.

You're trying too hard to make excuses and minimize her horrendous behavior and most of the posters aren't buying what you're selling.

Since Trump's election I believe we have seen a rise of violence and unwarranted verbal abuse by people, to complete strangers, who didn't get their way.

Look at all of the antifa violence and mayhem. They're the progressive's Brownshirts.

That older couple who got kicked off the plane, as one example, where the wife couldn't just keep her mouth shut and started berating another passenger. Check out her hapless husband. Poor schm**k.

That's the thing. People want to criticize the guy (who may or may not have been upset) because it's "just a hat" - but don't criticize the girl for being upset and for her outrageous reaction to something that is "just a hat." It's hypocritical, but telling.

Now we know why so many adults behave badly. It's because as children and teens enablers wrote their behavior off as understandable or normal - when it's neither.

You can't have it both ways, it is simply a fact that enough Americans supported Trump such that he won the election, and whether they wear red hats or not, they are here.
Yes we are !

I don’t even own a MAGA hat or Trump shirt. Where I live to wear items like that with the nuts running around I could be seriously injured or killed. Surrounded by TDS folks and not worth the confrontations. They overreact and are unbalanced.

Sad state of affairs.

Maybe it's time to put a minimum age limit of things like social media similar to a drinking age. These kids can't handle the onslaught of information they receive on a near endless basis. Much of it is false information and they don't have the mentality or the coping skills to decimate information properly. This is the result.
