| 2020-10-04 | |
| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A man believed to be a supporter of President Trump punched a man who was playing a rap song titled ‘F*** Donald Trump’ in a parking lot outside of Dallas on Saturday. The incident took place outside a Buc-ee’s convenience store in Denton. In the video, two maskless men, one of whom is seen wearing a Trump shirt, confront a man wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs hockey jersey while holding what appears to be a sign.

| #14 When are people going to learn to take the phone/camera they're being filmed with? Taking a phone is no doubt felony theft, with real jail time. Deleting the video, though... What if you just pulverize it? Theft/Destruction of Private Property. I understand the penalty for either, as far as I know, and of course varies by location, is based on a monetary value. Some of those phones/PEDs are valued at more than a couple dollars and the case could be made that the contents also have a value which could be translated into a dollar amount. And to paraphrase the cockroach theory, for every one person you see taking video, there are 2 taking video you don't see. This is the Fred Phelps technique, right? Set up a provocation, record it, hit the opponent with the law. Done right, the provocateurs have a second station videoing the scene. An interesting question I would have, is what is the statue of limitations in this age of video? Not sure how MagDude, or any similar situation, gets out of this, until it is recognized that noise above a certain decibel is actually assault (damaged hearing), or that such a demonstration creates a hazardous environment (not being able to properly navigate safely), or the corruption/abuse of a minor in a public setting (such as NC-17 movie at a movie theater or public rest area vs. a more private adult setting such as a bar or adult concert). Again, the Fred Phelps Chronicles would suggest that such defenses are not up to challenge. |

| #10 F**king up that clown's audio equipment (or car) a la the rioters would have been a nice gesture. |

| #9 I notice nobody was arrested. I seriously doubt anyone will be charged and good luck getting a conviction. |

| #7 Magpul Hat. Not MAGA. Poor mechanics on the punch despite it's effectiveness. Victim was something less than a soy boy... |

| #5 I too am tired of the F*U* , M*F* lyrics being played in public around families, me and my Grand children. To me it shows a total lack culture, civility, class and general thuggish Low IQ. If person wants to listen do such vulgar lyrics then so in their house or at a Night Club around similar thinking slime. |

| #4 Playing a rap song titled "Fuck Donald Trump" in a Texas convenience store parking lot is fighting words. Soy Boy protester is lucky it was just one punch, and that he's still got his teeth. |

| #3 Shocking? The only thing shocking is the restraint the populace has displayed up to this point. No guarantees moving forward. |
