What if the hat had the so-called “peace sign” on it?

The betrayal of our nation associated with the Democrat Party

“I consulted with one of my contemporaries in another county,” Fulton said. They determined that the NRA hat “fell under the same sort of grey area” as a ruling that barred voters from wearing a “Don’t Tread on Me” t-shirt, Fulton said, citing apparel that is popular among tea party and other similar groups.

I really wasn't planning on voting this time around as I have nothing and nobody on the ballot to vote for. However it might be fun to wear my DTOM tee to the polls and see what happens.

Back in the day they made them remove Peace Signs too in VA. They were pretty, and equally, persnickety about anything that even smacked of a political statement.

Here in Pasadena I have yet to see anyone wear anything that is “politicking”.

That all being said, he should have taken his hat off indoors anyway. Courtesy n all.

I wonder if the objectors to the “Don’t Tread on Me” flag know that they were NOT worn by citizens of the United States. They were BRITISH SUBJECTS, one and all, who were fed up with the abuses of their government. At that time there was no such thing as an “AMERICAN”.
Not until July 4, 1776 did those people become what is called “AMERICANS”, and not for several heart-breaking years could they show the world, for all time, who they were.
Today, we see CITIZENS proclaiming to that world, that once again, we are fed up with governmental abuses.
It had nothing to do with Democrat or Republican, but the free speech statement of Americans.
