“Would you like me to provide more examples”

Then refuses to provide more examples

No bootlicker, that's what I call him his official name now. Like a Boxer is called "Hurricane" your idol is "grab'em by the pussy". #hole countries The judge Animals Those we're the racist remarks, must be hard with that kind of attention span to navigate through life, bootlicker.

The only thing racist about those remarks is your insinuation that people with different skin colors shouldn't be criticized by Trump.

A Canadian saying mean things about Trump IS racist.

LOL.

Okay I call all Americans morrons than. Because you have proven they are and it's okay, because you say it's not racist. How stupid are you, bootlicker?

“Morrons than”

Ok.

a reply to: TerryMcGuire

It is a #ING hat. It is not a political movement. It is not a statement of hate. Racism. BIgotry. Xenophobia.Homophobia. Mysogyny. This is a dumb as after football games an visiting team fan wearing a jerseys is accosted by the home team fans. An excuse to try to make a statement.

That is made up by the media, the TRUMP resistance and is espoused by folks like you.

It is a kid. It is a hat. Let's switch it up.

Let's say a kid wears a Che hat to school. Does that mean people have the right to kick his ass because the person he is supporting shot and killed 100's?

Ok.

It is "folloy" to argue with a lefty, the lefty will not understand, and it's a waste of the lefty's time away from bashing someone wearing a hat because, feelz.

As a staunch libertarian socialist, I tend to agree with the Trump supporters here.
The right of freedom of expression, freedom of speech, is way more important than anyone's feelings about the subject.

So cudos to the maga-wearing teen

I'm extremely worried to see the "progressive left" trying to outlaw speech and symbols they don't agree with.

Those who seek to end injustice, should start with their own!

Ya know, it's funny...
You never seem to hear about full grown, able bodied men getting accosted.
Only children and smaller dudes.

They don't want to have actual debates or confront people who may fight back. Typical behavior of any bully, one punch to the face usually sets them straight. I am not advocating violence btw.

I am. These mf'rs need to be punched back. I get tired of people turning the other cheek just to get hit again. The longer patriots hold back, the worse it'll be if or when shart hits the fan.

I bet you waited for evidence with Jussie Smollett, too, right?

The role of a teacher is one of a role model....of a leader and shaper of minds. But, political shaping should NOT be poart of that class agenda, unless it is part of the approved curriculum of the school....PERIOD.

I agree with you here. Completely. If, and I say ''if'' this episode is as described, the teacher was out of line for ridiculing the ''child'' in front of the class and should have been seriously reprimanded if not docked. However, in my earlier reply I attempted to suggest that possibly this whole thing was concocted by the persecution fantasies of the father and the son. As I said, I don' t know.

Dealing with this event as a hypothetical situation to check our own morality plays, discussing them back and forth can lead to evaluations of other possible standpoints, but claiming the event as factual as presented by what is likely biased players in the event only serves to bolster ones already assumed perception of that and related type stories. You know?

And I agree as well about political trolling or expression in schools with children of that age is inappropriate. Liberal and conservative. But my over all stance on this is the simple perception that this child did not wear that hat just because it was a hat, but rather as a symbol of discontent with established norms and hence a political middle finger in the middle of an academic setting. And ''if'' the teacher was antagonized as reported he was out of line. But to say that he threatened the student when what was said was that ''that is a face I would like to punch'' though verging on a direct threat is not really that by an expression of disapproval and not the threat it was made out to be, and once again recognizing that even that is out of line for the teacher to be saying.

Fear, division and hate, from my experience, is pretty much what US partisans of either stripe do. Probably because that's what most US voters, (citizens and otherwise), understand.

It is at least.............entertaining. The outcomes are generally useless, but the "show" is entertaining.

It's not "just a hat" and you know that, it's been designed and sold as symbol of support for a political figure.
Was the teacher out of line, sure. Yet this little Canadian is holding up politically controversial regalia of a sexist and racist "leader" who did promote violence in his rallies with the exact same sentence the teacher used.
If you want to be outraged about this you should start at the root and look at the facts.

And don't go "why is Trump (grab 'em by the pussy) racist boohoo..." he is. He called people crossing the border "animals", or Judge Gonzalo Curiel he said something like "he is mexican I'm building a wall!" about a judge of the United States of America because of his heritage that's very unamerican and racist...
"#hole countries", Obama and the birther movement... do you want me to name some more?

Lol, too funny.

I'd LOVE for you to name some more so you can continue to expose your thin skin and hypocrisy. Please don't let me down, keep em coming.

Thank you for understanding my points. That is really the crux of the issue here. And if you notice the title, it does say, "alleged"....intentionally since it has not been proven. However, given the actual confirmed examples of this type of TDS behavior, it is worth discussion. Albeit, more level headed and civil than it has degraded to here so far. Even I am not immune at times. And for that, I apologize as I was wrong to let it get personal.

But, I am still searching out for confirmation from another source. And if true, as you stated, the teacher was not only wrong, but in violation of the schools administrative procedures on treatment of students (I provided details and a link to that procedure in an earlier post).

It’s a great hat with an even greater message.
What is symbolises is great and noble.
Those opposing it are oppressive, hateful and bigoted racists.

It's only a hat. Everything you want to assign to it is completely up to you.

a reply to: BelowLowAnnouncement

No, my opinion is not wrong, rather yours is either myopic or willfully ignorant of anything other than the simplist of notions.

I am not saying that the hat is racist, it is not. And I am not saying it is transphobic, it is not. But what I am saying is that it has been turned into a symbol of all things Trumpian and hence a symbol that stands for the core of the Trump agenda. It was his campaign slogan for crying out loud and it is worn proudly by thousands of Trump voters. It was turned into a symbol not by the left but by the right. Attempting to claim that wearing that hat as only a hat is one more little ploy to promote the image of Trump people as ''victims''. Are you a victim? If not then quit whining about ''it's just a hat''.

You sound like one of those dirty leftists. You must be proud.

“The core of the Trump agenda” is a good thing.

Assigning hate and bigotry to the “core of the Trump agenda” is a media-manipulation exercise that trapped the low-iq media followers, and no one else.
