I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of teenagers wearing MAGA hats until we can figure out what is going on. They seem to be poisoning young minds. [1/2] https://t.co/yq5bLd4kE2— Rep. John Yarmuth (@RepJohnYarmuth) January 20, 2019
Sorry I just can't seem to embede the Tweet Properly. :(
Before you laugh! Before you call him an Idiot. Before you dismiss this as typical lefty totalitarian nuttiness.
He is serious.
Deathly serious.
Before Donald Trump's Presidency is up, there WILL be a serious and concerted effort to openly and unapologetically suppress these sorts of ideas, slogans, merchandise and apparel.
These people are going to take every last opportunity to create the Casus belli.
Make it or Fake it is the playbook.
The assumption the Freepers make is that the left would object to First Amendment violations.
Untrue. They would, with a sinister smile, applaud it.
There is not a single Amendment in the first 10, in our Bill of Rights, that they agree with.
This is real. This man wants to outlaw a hat just because it has a so-called offensive message that triggers leftists.
What else might they ban for the same reason? I’m sure the list is endless. As usual, freedom loses.
Certain groups of people in this country do not have freedom of speech.
In the pre-1776 days you could freely say all the nice, positive things you wanted about the British and King George.
Negative, harsh things about them often meant imprisonment or hanging.
How is it different today when males are so chilled by
intimidation that they cannot express opinions, say words,go to restaurants if you are seen as supporter of President Trump,or wear garments that leftists don’t agree with?
Ask the founder of Papa John, Curt Schilling, Jimmy the Greek Snyder,Rep. Steve King, or many others not as famous.
I realize employees, public officials and so on are different than average people, but free speech is lavishly used by the Left but suppressed on the Right. TV hosts or comics can make anti-Trump slander or threats and get pats on the back. Talk radio conservatives lose sponsors or their stations or their jobs over a slip of the tongue.
I just read Can You Be Fired for Hate Speech? Doesn’t the First Amendment Protect Speech? by Tom Spiggle.-—I am not promoting him or his firm and don’t know anything about him. It was just interesting.

On the other hand, how about forbidding “native americans” taking their drums off the reservation? Or would that be racist?
If they did, ConservaTeen, his siblings and their friends will wear them and if they get stopped we will sue the Federal Government for supporting a Criminal organization - the Dems.
An incident staged by leftist Natives, now blown out of importance and twisted back on the kids. Typical reservation wonder tactics
BAN Maga Hats for teens?
Go ahead and try it... you’ll see MILLIONS of Maga Hats on teens’ heads in open defiance.
And on adults too.
John Yarmuth (D-KY) needs to be seriously ripped for supporting a racist AIM terrorist. It’d be great if some Kentuckians showed up in his office to bang drums and sing the sacred songs of the people.
He’s welcome to come and TRY to remove my hat (or my gun).
Another statist goon who’s only solution to problems is to use government power to strip individuals of their rights.
No, what Rep. John Yarmuth called for is Civil War 2.
He should be toward the front of the line of military tribunal executions.
Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) is an idiot, to be polite. The liberal Native American activist saw the youth in their MAGA caps, made a turn, entered their space as they stood on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, and confronted them. He is the guilty party, but since he is a liberal activist morons like Yarmuth excuse him.
The easiest solution is to simply ban dumblecrats.
It is just like the democrats to call for suppression of the First Amendment by calling for a ban on hats with a simple expression on it. They are sleezeballs!
OK, my “MAGA” hat is white with red letters. The message is still the same!
Libtards shouldn’t be lecturing anybody about tolerance.
Hopefully it will only strengthen our resolve.
Then they came for your free speech.
And finally when they come for your guns, you'll ask, "How did that happen?"
