16 year old MAGA bro gets soda thrown at him at Whataburger

[Deleted member 4274]

To NightMarcher and cosmicblizzard

Let some racist call me a nigger to my face. Or coon. Or ape. That person will get the TASTE slapped out of his mouth. Like DigitalOp said, we're our grandparents. By the way, not all black people during the civil rights movement, hell, even during slavery, where with that "kumbaya" fuck shit. A LOT of blacks fought back in that era.

If that fuck boy said that bullshit some witnesses are quoting, then that dude (notice I didn't say kid, we dont get to be kids and are perceived older... so will this douche) deserves that soda splash. Hell, I wish it was dog piss. If that story is a fabrication, then he should have fell back and yelled at him. I read some saying the hate reps nazism. It DOES, but it's not to that point yet. Sorry y'all know it's not. the hat definitely is all those things you've mentioned, but it's NOT on the level of a Nazi Swastika.

Edit: just wanted to say, IF the kid threw the water simply because of the MAGA hat I don't give a shit, and half support it. It just wouldn't be a smart and he loses a Smidge of sympathy from me. Literally microscopic.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like something a kid with a MAGA cap would say.

Well I am interested. I looked around a bunch of news articles but the ones that showed the 2017 mugshot didn't offer an explanation for it.

I'm not going to tell a black* person how to use racial verbiage that pertains to them. You do whatever you want.

*person of color, perhaps I got it wrong

Apparently this is his mug shot:

Come on guys, it's no use getting angry at the forum. I can understand that people are angry, but you can't expect resetera to allow people to encourage illegal actions. If you want to partake in that, don't do it here. And just because someone disagrees with how best to handle nazis and MAGAites doesn't mean they should automatically get banned from here.

Sweet Christmas this thread is a mess, I'll never understand how people can come into these sorts of topics with the " Just talk to them" angle. We're waaaay past that with some of these people living in this country and that's a fact. Admitting as such doesn't mean youre advocating straight up blunt violence. The least some of you could do is not be so naive to think finger waging to everyone else being ok with this particular situation is going to accomplish anything in these types of discussions.

- KTSA: UPDATE: Arrest Made In San Antonio Whataburger Splash And Grab Of 'MAGA' Hat.

A witness tells a local television station that the video posted on social media doesn't tell the full story.

An anonymous witness told KENS 5 Thursday that the spat at the Whataburger may have been instigated by racial comments by the teens.
The TV station reports the witness was eating with his family at the Whataburger and says the three teens involved in the video mention the film "The Purge", wishing it was real, but only against African-Americans and Latinos.

He also said the teens were joking about 'hanging blacks' and killing off minorities.

"They said they wanted it to be legal for white people to kill any other race for the Fourth of July," the witness told KENS.

He said another man in the restaurant asked the teens to stop making such comments.

The witness said he and his family cut their dinner short after that before things escalated.

San Antonio police are investigating the case and Whataburger has told KTSA it is supporting the police department's work.

I really, really doubt most prosecutors would seek something larger than a misdemeanor in that case. Prosecutors are supposed to take cases they know have a chance of winning. This will get argued down in court to a much lesser charge. This feels like a misappropriation of the justice system. I.E. using the system to fuck someone over.

It's not clear what happened before what is on the video though. According to the teens it was completely unprovoked. There was one place reporting the teens were making racist remarks from an anonymous source but they have since retracted that part from their story because they question it's legitimacy and are unable to verify it.
