Walt Disney World banned an ex-Marine from the Upper West Side from all its parks last week for waving a “Trump 2020” banner on Splash Mountain, he says.
“Forty Disney employees escorted me out,” recalled Dion Cini, 49.
“I held up the sign for two seconds so I can take a picture,” he told The Post.
“You’re allowed to hold up signs on Disney rides — cameras, cellphones, and other stuff like that. People have been doing it for years. They just kicked me out ’cause of the context of the sign.”
Cini, an annual pass-holder with over 1,000 days in the parks, shared the news of his banishment on Facebook — along with a note from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, outlining the requirements.
“Trespassed from all of Walt Disney World properties to include, but not limited to, Theme Parks, Water Parks, Resorts and Disney Springs,” the order says.
According to Disney rules, “unauthorized events, demonstrations or speeches, or the usage of any flag, banner or sign for commercial purposes, or to incite a crowd” is prohibited. ..."
“The first time might have been borderline inciting the crowd, and they called me back and said they’d let me in,” Cini explained. “The second time, I just help up a small sign…and I did not incite a crowd. So I actually proved my own theory. That they kicked me out ’cause of the context of the sign and not the policy.”
Cini has made headlines in the past for his support of Trump. The longtime New Yorker regularly rows up and down the Hudson River in an 18-foot scull — while flying his trademark “Trump 2020” flag.

They’re building concentration camps as we speak.
“Unauthorized events”
You mean like Gay Day?
“Cini, an annual pass-holder with over 1,000 days in the parks...”
That must be a world record.
He is the President.
To be fair, this wasn’t a free speech issue. It was a safety issue. You aren’t allowed to hold up loose items on rides. What if he had lost control of that sign and it hit the girl in the face behind him? Completely irresponsible on this guy’s part.
Looks like those leftys are triggered with just the sight of the man minding his business holding a Trump sign. I’m guessing that’s not Diamond and Silk shouting and glaring at the guy in the picture. Also guessing that’s not Disney hosting that Trump protest, right?
Lefty groups often endanger the public with their antics, and much more so than this.
I agree. Doesn’t discount the fact that this guy was irresponsible for doing this.
I was in the Orlando one for a business meeting for 2 days and wanted to take a flame thrower to the place.
“With the landslide election of President Kamela Harris and her vice President AO-C, the real action began: people known to have guns began to find that their credit was no good, their homes were foreclosed, and their work history was non-existent. Around that same time various out spoken Conservatives and Republican began to disappear or had fatal accidents.
“After the purges and consolidations, the real work began with the arrival of imams and clerics along with massive shipments of Korans destined for every American household.”
The history breaks off at this point with only partial pages mostly consumed by flames. Learned scholars believe that this once dominant species suffered some sort of catastrophe which brought about their extinction. Little else is known. But the hive leaders are hopeful that somewhere in the deep layers of rock answers will be found, but, since so many millions of years have passed, not many hold out any hope of further revelations.
“Forty Disney employees escorted me out.”
Wimps. Goes to show that even dumb Disney knows that ten people are not enough to escort a Marine.
You should write a novel.
But according to the article:
You’re allowed to hold up signs on Disney rides — cameras, cellphones, and other stuff like that. People have been doing it for years.
It’s private property.
It’s their rides.
It’s their rules.
He was being a jerk...............
He’s an agitator. He got what he wanted.
He was told not to do this again. He did it anyway. He’s on private property.
I agree with his sentiments. But if he was a liberal acting out in this manner, we would correctly applaud Disney World for kicking him out.
Assuming, of course, Disney would object and kick him out.
