Edith Macias might be charged with a felony for stealing someone’s Trump hat

Social justice warrior Edith Macias might be charged with a felony for stealing someone’s Trump hat

In the video below, which was recently filmed at UC Riverside, social justice warrior Edith Macias spends nine minutes explaining why she stole a Trump hat right off the head of a Trump supporter.

Macias takes the hat to campus authorities, under the belief that they will take her side.

But they don’t. Instead, they take the side of the hat owner, get him his hat back, and call the campus police.

Originally, the owner of the hat was not planning to press charges.

However, after Macias put a video online where she encouraged other people to steal people’s Trump hats, the owner of the hat changed his mind, and is pressing charges. Macias could be charged with a felony.

Meanwhile, Macias continues to claim that she is the victim. And her friends are demanding that the school pay for a safe place for her and her family to live, as well as pay for the cost of her current residence.

I’m no legal expert. At first, I thought that a felony charge seemed kind of severe for stealing someone’s hat. However, the fact that Macias has gone online and incited other people to steal people’s Trump hats makes me have no problem with her getting a felony charge. She still shows no remorse for what she has done, and, on the contrary, seems to be quite proud of it. That’s a shame. I think she just ruined any chance she had of living a decent life, or getting a college education.

If she is convicted, I hope her sentence is to write a 500 word essay on why it’s wrong to steal other people’s personal property. And then the essay should be put online for everyone to see. I think that would be a much more appropriate sentence than prison, especially for a first time, non-violent offender. Besides, it would be cruel and unusual punishment for the other prisoners if they were forced to live with her.

[ If she is convicted, I hope her sentence ]

I would prefer that she serve slop in the gray-bar hotel. There’s some social justice.

If she took the Hat off his person, it’s Assault.

Taking the Hat is Theft.

Inciting others to commit Assault and Theft is Conspiracy.

especially for a first time, non-violent offender

Sorry, but snatching the hat from him was assault; touching him was a battery; taking the hat was theft; and making threats and inciting to violence is a felony. This is not a "non-violent offender." Granted she didn't bash his head in with a spiked club like other fascist thugs have done, but these are still crimes. Lock her up.

You should show remorse for this blog.

That sounds like assault to me.

It’s not about the hat. It is about going up to a person and physically touching them. Never okay.

Sorry if this post makes no sense; working on a new laptop and running on five days of insomnia.

Stealing a hat is a misdemeanor unless it is worth over -it varies in states - $100, $500, $1,000, etc.

The “incitement” charge could be a felony.

Assault - simple assault and battery (illegal touching) - a spanking

Actually, taking property off a person using force or fear is robbery.

Macias takes the hat to campus authorities, under the belief that they will take her side. But they don’t. Instead, they take the side of the hat owner, get him his hat back, and call the campus police.

Actually the fact that the authorities took the side of the hat owner over the snowflake is the most surprising thing in this story.

Everything else is business as usual in California.

What can I say? I am pleasantly surprised at the actions of the unnamed authorities. I wish I knew who they were so I could send them an attaboy.
