The media didn’t go far enough in smearing that Trumper if you ask me.
What exactly did this kid do? Wear a hat in front of someone and smile? Don't mistake your political tribalism for genuine moral virtue. Remove the trappings of the situation, and what are you left with. You want a kid to be further smeared by the media for doing what exactly?
Well, for one, the kid is a Trump supporter, and we shouldn’t be coddling that treason.
It’s bad enough people here want to defend them, but the media has a duty to hold them responsible.
The kid willfully displayed his hate of America, he reaped what he sowed. It was his choice, he’s old enough to form his own opinions and the teen chose incorrectly. Public shame absolutely is legitimate.
Besides, they gotta learn young.
You're a sociopath if you think that the public shaming of a child on a national scale is an appropriate response to said child supporting a particular political candidate. Get well.
Supporting a wannabe Stalin is not the same thing as supporting just another political candidate.
We should not be coddling the insurgency simply because of “morality”. This teen is old and mature enough to make his choices, and he reaped what he sowed.
He got repeatedly doxxed and people on Twitter were offering money for people to attack him in public. Not doxxing and and not taking contracts out on people who have different opinions than you isn't "coddling". It's like you're trying to do a parody of some kind of conservative "personal responsibility" talk and doing a really bad job.
If the millennial left doesn't grow the hell up all that's going to be left when the last boomer liberals die is a dumb mob.
