Danish tourist mugged over MAGA hat in NYC

[Trotsky]

Well, at least "mugged" is the word media outlets are using. In actuality, he just had his MAGA hat stolen from him, after he relinquished it after the robber informed him he had a knife. I personally reserve the term for when you are beaten up or at least robbed of your wallet, but reasonable minds could differ.

“He asked if I knew what it symbolized, and said I couldn’t leave with the hat,” Andersen told the Post. “He was clearly offended.”

“I tried to walk away, and then he followed me and grabbed it again, and we just [stood] there both holding the hat,” he added. “Then one of my friends told me one of the [robber’s] friends had a knife.”

“I began to shake, and as I heard the word 'knife' I let the hat go,” he said.

“I bought it for my dad as a joke,” he said. “I don’t know why I decided to wear it. I didn’t think some people would take it so far to [try to] stab a tourist over a hat."

He adds that he plans to return to New York City in the future, “but not with that kind of headwear ever again.”

I guess it turns out that, just like you wouldn't go to UK and wear a "Britain First" hat, to France and wear a "National Front" hat, or to Germany and wear a National Socialist hat, you probably shouldn't go to a US city and arbitrarily wear merchandise of the most embarrassing piece of shit in our country's history.

Someone stole a hat and you made a thread?

Solid critique, but I figured I'd preempt what was going to be a thread eventually, probably in a much more melodramatic and circle jerkish form.

I remember when this slogan used to be on hats.

Hopefully they find him and send his ass to Rikers Island. People like this need to start being made example of. It's a free country. You are not entitled to steel somebody else's shit or assault them, because of political differences.

He wasn't mugged guys, he simply "relinquished the hat" after being threatened with a knife.

 

[Seano]

No, no,no. Not stole. "Relinquished."

It’s really a shame democrats are in control of all the most violent cities in America...

Not violent. How about you leave the hate speech at the door?

Those cities are pacifically challenged, probably because of Trump and white people.

He should have put a confederate shirt on with the hat.

I bet you're the type of guy who brags about getting into a bar fight after calling the bartender a bitch for forgetting the olive in your martini.

Sounds like an example of that Trump derangement syndrome people have mentioned.

Like a cryp seeing someone wearing red.

Please, you actually tried to say a guy held up at knife point and had things stolen wasn't mugged. And why? Because of the hat he wore, am I right? I am.

I only maintained that I reserve "mugged" for situations in which actual violence, not a guy getting spooked by a word, takes place.

But, like I said, I'm open to the fact that pussies like yourself would consider that horrifying enough to soil yourself and would qualify that as mugging.

 

[IndyCovaHart]

Liberate NYC immediately.

If you get your stuff stolen under threat of violence, thats being mugged in my book.

And don't try to use this as some opportunity to say you're not a pussy too. Is that what this was, a Walhbergian attempt to show how hardcore you are?

So when do you official sign up as a Trump supporter? The way you are mischaracterizing and complaining about how you perceive the media to be mischaracterizing yet accurately reporting something you'd fit right in?
