Owners of Mexican restaurant north of Tucson targeted on social media after Trump rally

Cathalena E. Burch Feb 29, 2020

The owners of a Mexican restaurant in Catalina are fending off social media attacks after appearing in the VIP area at Donald Trump's Phoenix campaign rally last week.

A member of the Grupo de Palfeis Facebook group on Wednesday posted a screengrab image from the Feb. 19 rally that showed Sammy's Mexican Grill owner Betty Rivas standing behind Trump, donning a red cowboy hat emblazoned with "Latinos Love Trump."

“Very ugly stuff. They are saying nasty stuff about the restaurant," owner Jorge Rivas said Friday, a day after he and his wife posted a video on Facebook defending their rights as "naturalized American citizens" to vote, support and meet whomever they please.

Some “Latinos” have left the “liberals” political plantation (built under the “Liberal” banner by the Left), and that is why the Rivas are being attacked. They didn’t keep their minds pinned up where the Left wanted them.

How dare they leave the plantation!!!! /s

Trump has now tweeted to support Sammy’s.
I bet they’ll have plenty of new business.

I have yet to be able to have a reasonable conversation with a leftist. I don’t try anymore. Unfortunately, it is getting more and more evident that we cannot coexist. The increasing frequency of these attacks reminds me of the Terminator movie when Reese is laying it out for Sarah:
“Listen, and understand! That Terminator is out there! It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop... ever, until you are dead!”
