Yep, that would have likely been the situation he would have found himself in. The "justice" system isn't exactly a nuanced or impartial arbiter, they would of course not take any of that into consideration. OP did the right thing for himself by not doing what he wanted to do.
I mean, I explained how it is though.
The shirt is absolutely meant to provoke people, going so far as to say they want to "make liberals cry".
You explained how the shirt represents hateful political stances. You didn't explain how someone wearing the t-shirt justifies someone violently attacking them.
The discussion had shifted though, people are arguing about whether or not violence would indeed be justified against that guy.
What I was trying to say is that the shirt is a deliberate provocation, not getting into whether any given response is justified or not.
Maybe I am misreading the exchange? I said wearing the t-shirt isn't a provocation that justifies violence. You replied by saying yes it is.
Violence is often the answer in the face of opposing violence, yes. Violence is not the answer in the face of a guy eating a burrito while wearing a t-shirt that makes you angry.
FWIW, it's a real shirt:
As you pointed out yourself, they said it was a last resort option. They also said they were not talking about it being justified or not. They were commenting on the provocation.
come on brah .. now you did it..I said it's a provocation and tried to present why the OP (or anyone) would feel how they felt, I'm not going to get into my personal and subjective feelings on what is justified or not, that's a whole other thing that has nothing to do with the OP.
FWIW, it's a real shirt:
UF_C Is this the shirt?
I don't think white supremacy is a joke, im mocking people that think someone wearing a trump t-shirt is a provacation to violence.
No. I knew it was wrong the moment I felt it. I understand the game. I've been in politics for over 20 years. This is the first time I've had a visceral reaction to it and I had to vent. I don't need anyone to validate my thoughts and actions. I'm an adult and know right from wrong. I just had enough for a moment in time that passed as quickly as it came.
What if we get together an make the world's biggest finger painting?
The troll was dude wearing the shirt IMO.
Its time to stop being the nice guys and wear just as nasty shit as they do, and make it worse. Trump supporters are White Supremacists. It's pure and simple. Anyone who supports Trump is a full-blown racist and a mouth-breathing blowhard.
Laugh at the mindless, clueless old racist fools willing to give up their health and savings to a conman?
I don't know if i would want an explicit t shirt, but maybe something more subtle would be more effective. Just enough for him to know you hate him, but not enough for the general public to consider offensive.
I grew up in Florida. Motherfuckers would try converting me to be a southern baptist once a week.
