CNN Commentator Condones Attack On Boy Wearing MAGA Hat
Democrats are the party of intolerance, racism, bigotry, violence, and outright hatred.
The victim is a 16-year-old minor while his attacker is a 30-year-old grown man. The fact anyone would condone this is completely shocking.
But I’m sure his job will be secure…
Wish I could take the high road. But your MAGA hat reads like a swastika to me. So ummm … hmmm. Yeah. Maybe I’m no longer a decent person. https://t.co/OWYodBRtxB

CNN commentator Marc Lamont Hill condoned an attack on a 16-year-old boy wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat in a Thursday tweet.
On Tuesday night, a man in a San Antonio, Texas Whataburger stole a boy’s MAGA hat and then tossed his drink on the group of Trump-supporting teens.
“You ain’t supporting s*it, n******,” the man told the teens after he threw his drink on them.
TMZ staffer Van Lathan seemed to defend the man’s behavior in a Thursday tweet, writing, “Wish I could take the high road. But your MAGA hat reads like a swastika to me.” More

I actually don’t advocate throwing drinks on people. Not at all. But yes, i think MAGA hats (deliberately) reflect a movement that conjures racism, homophobia, xenophobia, etc. So yes, it’s a little harder to feel sympathy when someone gets Coca Cola thrown on him. https://t.co/ASlATau2PF

Extremely disappointing comment. I know you won’t care, but I’m unfollowing. I think it’s important to accept a diversity of perspectives and opinions, but your disregard for decency in that comment is outweighed only by your mockery of the true horrors of the history of Nazis.

Wow. A bully pulls that shit and your discussing swastikas. Why? No one has that right even if they dislike the symbol or speech. That’s physical violence. Grow up. Oh and that guy is lucky I wasn’t around in many levels. He’s a weakling. #Disgusting

Who is the Nazi? You’re saying it’s OK to violently attack people you disagree with politically. Keep it up. You’re showing your hatred and your intolerance. “decent” people can see that

And your Socialism (no tolerance for others opinions, lack of respect for religion, violence against your political opponents) shouts Hitler to us. Why don’t you actually go back and read a book about Hitler. I recommend Winston Churchill’s work.
