    That's why the left loves both Obama and Hollywood.

    Make the case that the school getting bomb threats, the kids getting death threats, their parents getting death threats, threats of violence, calls for firings, threats of boycotts, threats to random people who weren't even there is not the result of nutjobs getting triggered by such endorsements of violence.

    Would you make the case that all of those threats, to that specific community, is just some sort of bizarre coincidence and has nithing to do with the barrage of hateful messaging posted by influentual people?

    Livestock do not but Alyssa Milano is a beautiful woman so she might :0

    I could not disagree with her more on this issue as a general rule. She is correct that the extreme right wears those hats to get a reaction from the left, the left empowered them to do so.

    But red hat does not equal a KKK hood. Nobody wore a KKK hood for any other reason other than to support the KKK and it’s ideals. That’s not the case with the red hats.

    Anybody, who truly thinks that MAGA hats are a symbol of violent racism, is a victim of propaganda.

    They should be helped out of, not encouraged in their distorted view of reality.

    You are not helping them.

    But that is how we BECAME great. All cultures up until now have been mainly products of their unique environments and historys. They have adapted to these outside shaping forces in an ad hoc manner, so that none is the best for all places and all times; but in America we have taken the best they all have to offer and adapt what no longer works so that it does. We are a DESIGNED culture, a product of the same cultural revolution that produced the science that has transformed our lives and altered our very humanity, and you want to throw that all away for narrow prejudice?

    They might have started by not making so much noise. Somebody might have tried to actually TALK to the old guy then. Admittedly, he was beating the drum but those drums aren't that loud, you can talk over them. That's not the case when 50/60 people are all shouting.

    Merely spewing hate at other Americans - assumimg you are an American - is not an answer to the question of why we want to add inferior cultures to change America

    It's alarming and dismaying that the people on the left take a political slogan and a baseball hat promoted by the president of the United States to be the equivalent of a political movement that has at most a few thousand supporters nationwide. It is not the people wearing MAGA hats who are the extremists and potentially violent criminals but those who demonize people wearing MAGA hats who are.

    Because they realize MAGA is over - slain by the sociopathic smirker - and there is NOTHING they can do about it but bleat.

    Uh, no

    The Euro Christian-Judeo culture we founded America with was the best in the world

    Changing it to an arabic-mayan-african culture will only undermine the qualities that make Ameticca great

    They don't symbolize animosity to everyone but Americans in America?
    What we don't need to do is act like we're Somalia ourselves, or Saudi or China or Iran or any other country or culture that is convinced they're better than anyone else on Earth and no-one anywhere has anything to offer them. That is the express line to BECOME a shithole country, History proves nothing if it doesn't prove that.

    The United States did not become the strongest nation in the world by "welcoming everyone and freely adapting all cultures [] to our own, we did it by being the freest, most capitalistic nation on earth, based on Anglo-Saxon law and tradition. Everyone who came here until the Hispanics and now the Muslims adopted our culture, they didn't ask us to adopt theirs.

    If the people you want to immigrate here to make it "better" actually were capable of making a positive contribution, they'd come from successful countries.

    Putting Somalians in our government doesn't make it stronger, it just makes it more like Somalia.
