A video on TikTok and Twitter has gone viral, showing a man about to be arrested for the great crime of wearing a Make America Great Again hat.
In the video, an unidentified man is told by a police officer that if he continues to wear a MAGA hat, he would be arrested and finger printed.
The man then asked if he would be arrested for wearing his MAGA hat, to which the police officer swiftly replied, “yes.”
What kind of insanity are we living under now? Have we turned in to Communist China? How is there any justification for a man being threatened with arrest for simply wearing a hat supporting a former President? The man appeared to be simply expressing his right under the First Amendment to make symbolic statements.
But this is Biden’s America.

Mom told Me when I was a kid in school the easy way to keep Capital and Capitol in the right context was easy.
Capital- the “a” near the end stands for cAsh as in Wall Street.
Capitol- the “o” near the end stands for pOlitical as in the building occupied by the politicians.

Sure, if you enjoy being tasered at the polling place.
Does that not violate first, fourth and fifth amendments?
I am aware of the restriction regarding polling places, but which is the higher law of the land? The Constitution or Legislation?
Yup.
Oh, ya! In Kanadahar (Canada), we have ‘universal health care’, as in equal pain and suffering for all. Now, basic health care services are covered, but in each Province that coverage differs. Advanced coverage is VERY limited and takes lots of TIME.
Last week, I heard an Alberta lefty come out with, “No vax, no coverage”. As much as I loathe Overlord Kenney, I don’t THINK he would do that. AFA former ‘Dear Leader’ Rachel Nuttley of the New Democratic Party (read: socialist/communist), I could see such a rule brought in. In fact, I could see forced vaccinations, regardless of ANY objection.
Maranatha.
I would, if in this guy’s situation, keep wearing it and let the Gestapo-wannabee arrest me. It would make for a beautiful lawsuit against the officer, his department, the government lawyers and anyone else involved - PERSONALLY - for violation of 18 U.S.C. Section 1983 (violation of civil rights under color of law).
Heck, I have DREAMED of being arrested under such clear circumstances - I’d be retired within a few months at most.
And 100s, if not 1000s, would still show up at a Back The Badge/Blue rally in that town, when they should be letting the government and police know that they’re planning on taking a good hard look at the police budget and who is in leadership positions in that place.
And I would quickly reply to that "I can't wait to see the judge's reaction!"
Context. It’s Election Day.
Where was this? Please tell us.
Where was this? Please tell us.
No.
tazed and brought in for refusing an unjust or illegal order ? ... A hat ?
I'll see you in court.
WE ARE LOSING OUR COUNTRY BECAUSE Y'ALL THINK FREEDOM ISN'T FREE IS FOR THE MILITARY .....
Y'all don't know history .... it's for the civilian ....
The military is for open warfare, not unelecting or slapping your local constable.
Freedom Isn't Free
Trump should pivot now to just wearing a plain RED hat. What would they do then?
Stop complaining and Stop complying.
Well at least I got a straight answer. Probably a wrong answer, but it was short and sweet.
This cop is a domestic enemy of the Constitution and whatever happens to him from here on out is fine by me.
The article was written to evoke emotion, which it did. I also dislike commercial political writers...
