A Tennessee man is charged with first-degree wanton endangerment after witnesses told police he pulled a gun on a man who was wearing Make America Great Again hat inside Sams Club.
The hat is associated with President Donald Trumps campaign for office.
James Phillips, 57, of Cottontown, Tenn., is accused of pulling a gun on the man inside the store Saturday after making an obscene gesture with his finger, according to his arrest citation.
Phillips, who was wearing a veterans cap, told police he made the gesture at the man and a woman with him because of the MAGA hats they were wearing, according to his citation. The man then confronted Phillips inside the store and an argument began.
That man then made the same obscene gesture to Phillips, according to the citation. At that point, witnesses told police Phillips pointed a gun at the man. That portion of the incident could not be seen on video surveillance.
Police encountered Phillips and the couple after being called to the Sams Club parking lot where multiple witnesses had called the police to report a man pulling a gun on a couple, according to his citation.
Callers told police the man, later identified as Phillips, told the woman, its a good day to die b ..
In his rear right pocket, Phillips was carrying a concealed .40 caliber Glock with a bullet chambered. He had two extra magazines in his left cargo pocket, according to his arrest citation.
He holds a concealed carry permit from Tennessee which has a reciprocal agreement with Kentucky for concealed carry licenses.
Phillips is lodged in the Warren County Regional Jail.
I wear an infidel cap also on occasion. People seem a bit more distant once they notice it. Either they don’t know what an infidel is (which they themselves are also) or they see the Arabic script and think I’m some sort of jihadist.

Until the Vast Middle is truly threatened, with blood in the streets that THEY can see, the Final Solution to the Communist Problem will not be realized.
We are looking at 23,000,000 dead Leftists, in the US.
Whole cities depopulated, as in newspapers blowing down empty streets.
Hollywood will have coyotes eating bodies at Sunset and Vine.
The Left somehow believes that some mythical UN force will protect them when they go for a true socialist Utopia.
It's an all or nothing, and until the only reference to Marx is a dust covered, half charred book under the rubble of the Harvard Library, they will be a threat to the Constitution.
I get the SAME reaction to it! Amazing that people are so uninformed or ignorant.
I need one of these.
How about this hat?

I would not need a gun to break chicken neck leftard.
Trumps fault...again. If Pres.Trump had not invented the MAGA cap, this fine specimen of a man would not have pulled a gun on the couple. ( I shouldnt have to use the sarcasm tag.)
Typical violent Democrat.
I want to know if hes really a vet. Anyone can buy a hat. I wear a browning hat but sold my BAR for a Benilli R1. I got CZ hats but carry a H&K. Maybe hes a vet and maybe he aint. Im waiting for the left to get all wet over Crimson Trace lasers or the many others available. I wonder if George Soros hires and pays these Azzholes
Media is an instigator to be sure but the mentally ill leftists make the conscious decision to pull guns on people over a simple hat, shoot at republican pols on a DC baseball field, or lie about being beat up and have a noose strung over their heads.
Just like the cult known as Islam that directs its followers to kill infidels; leftism directs its followers to turn into mentally jacked idiots. True, they have to be 90% crazy to be a leftist in the first place, but their ideology eggs them into action. We need to be prepared to put them down like the rabid curs they are. (No offense to real curs which are just fine)
Maybe one of those Marine Green Berets from Vietnam with some Air Force medals on his shirt. He'll probably claim PTSD.
It always baffles me to see a veteran who is a crazed far leftist. One would think their time in the service would cure anyone of that dangerous disease of the mind.
It would be like a leftist police officer. That would be like dirty oil (the leftist part) and sparkling spring water. It just creates a mess of the mind.
True, just that the annexation of Canada will
come after the repatriation of Mexicans and Central Americans
It’s a small, unincorporated village about 40 miles NE of Nashville. Not even a post office or convenience store there.
Don’t rule out the possibility that they don’t want to get hit by a stray bullet that was meant for you :<)
Good point. He may be of the stolen valor persuasion. He’s a leftist so he’s a known nut case. It’s possible.
Lol!
Shhhh! Trey likely would not appreciate his black sheep inbreds being linked to him in public. Everybody’s got one of those crazy whacked cousins that they don’t want anyone to know about.
Everytime I read a post about some libtard that either had voiced physical harm or did something like this guy did, I look for a picture that someone posts or the article sometimes includes. And everytime it’s a person with wild eyes. It never fails. What is it with these idiots and their expressions? It’s as if every one of them has hyperthyroid disease or maybe its the start of the “strong delusion” that God sends upon people in the last days. Does cocaine give people wild eyes? Just thinking out loud here.
