A man was taken into custody Saturday after he stabbed a "Baby Trump" protest balloon on display near the University of Alabama, where the president was attending the Crimson Tide's football game against LSU.

Hoyt Hutchinson, 32, was charged with felony first-degree criminal mischief, according to the Tuscaloosa News. The paper reported that Hutchinson posted a Facebook Live video saying he planned to deflate the balloon depicting Trump as a crying baby wearing a diaper and holding a cell phone.

I had a good friend that served on Trepang, and one on the Pargo. Me it was 640 gold. The guy deserves a new MAGA ballon and visit to the WH. :)

Commendable activism. This is how democracy works. Direct action, or performance art to start a conversation, etc. His art should not be silenced.

I stand with this artist in his effort to invigorate our democracy.

felony first-degree criminal mischief


Them’s fightin’ words! Felony mischief, OK. First-degree criminal mischief, OK. But felony first-degree criminal mischief? They’ve gone too far! Too many darn adjectives!

“I wonder if they would allow a Pro-Trump balloon at their venue”.

No, they wouldn’t. They’d pop it.

Our guys should get some of those balloons and put MAGA signs on them. That would really rile them up.

If he were to “identify” as ANTIFA, all would be forgiven.

********************

His defense can be that he self identifies as WW1 anti aircraft cannon and that baby trump triggered his anti-Zeppelin reflexes.

Put a patch on it and it’s fine. It’s not damaged beyond repair. The silly thing gets taken out at every protest.

He should buy them one of those kits to fix bike tires.

Mischief, maybe. If he pleads to a felony, his guns go away. Or at least the ones he hasn’t hidden by now.

Plenty of activist communist judges around to gleefully throw the book at him, all the way up the appellate level. I might suggest a scoped, high powered pellet rifle from a concealed position at 100+ yards away. If you're at risk for going down for a major felony anyway, may as well do it first class.
