Wonder how he handles a real like court room

I doubt he's ever seen the inside of a courtroom as a lawyer. He's probably never seen the inside of a law office as a lawyer

I wonder if these liberals realize a lot of people wear the hats just to get a rise, which ends up proving their point about TDS and snowflakeism running rampant through this country.

A lot of them claim America never was great, so to Make America Great Again is code for "let's return to Jim Crow's America."


It's weird that no one jumped all over Bill Clinton for actually using that term long before Trump when he announced he was running for President. Then fast forward 25 years, and Hillary is now saying MAGA is a racist slogan like no one can look up the video of Bill's speech. I don't know why Trump doesn't tweet video of that speech every time someone claims MAGA represents white supremacy

I think it’s interesting that if you’re 6’4” tall and weigh 240 pounds, the probability of being harassed while wearing a Maga hat decreases appreciably. Ever notice that?

I think it's funny that he originally acknowledges that the tension is 100% made up in his own head.

quote:

Omari wrote that initially he was "unsure whether the student was directing a hateful message toward me or if he merely lacked decorum and was oblivious to how his hat might be interpreted by his black law professor."

Omari determined that the student's MAGA hat — the iconic symbol of President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign — was a hateful message toward him.


So rather than have an open discussion with someone that has a different opinion that yours, we'll just assume the smirking white kid with the red hat is racist.

Yes. BamaPOS straight up called the ky high school kid a racist. None of the facts mattered.

It's the radical leftists' way. They get to lie without repercussions.

It would take me less than ten minutes to provide a plethora of YouTube links of African-American Trump supporters who would deny that. This guy is intellectually dishonest. Of course, in his profession that is an asset.

It isn't unusual to see kids wearing CCCP gear or a shirt with Che Guevara or a hammer and sickle.

Those things have been kosher for decades.

Those clothing items represent actual murderous regimes that brutally slaughtered innocents.

frick Leftists and their feigned outrage and special feelings.

I think this is it in a nutshell. An old friend who has gone radical once said during one of our political discussions "everything is about race". To look at the stories he follows and the stances he takes you would swear Emancipation happened only yesterday.

I think the hyper-partisan nature of today's politics exacerbates this effect (or vice-versa, or both).

He needs a sitdown with Candace Owens, Larry Elder, JC Watts, etc..

"As the student sat there directly in front of me, his shiny red MAGA hat was like a siren spewing derogatory racial obscenities at me for the duration of the one hour and fifteen-minute class," he wrote.

Omari did note that "in an effort to assuage the perceived tension, I jokingly told the student, 'I like your hat,' when he raised his hand to participate in class discussion. Without missing a beat, the student mockingly grinned from ear to ear and said, 'Thank you.'"

He also said that "an informal survey of my colleagues revealed that no other law faculty had experienced any students wearing such propaganda in their classes, which furthered my contention that this student was indeed trying to intimidate and/or racially antagonize me."
Listening to that guy is like listening to the ramblings of a 12 year old girl.

Omari added that he "was one of an exceedingly small number of students, faculty and staff of color in the law school. From my (progressive) perspective as a black man living in the increasingly polarized political climate that is America, MAGA is an undeniable symbol of white supremacy and hatred toward certain nonwhite groups."


My apologies, professor. paranoia must be a terrible burden to bear.

So Bill created "make America great again" and Hillary coined the term "fake news." Trump screwed them both!

The wedding I was just at in Newport was full of people like this - I hung out with this "highly educated" type for 2 days and 2 nights.


We actually chose not to attend a months-after-the-fact wedding reception for some friends because we knew it would be crawling with the same type of intellectual elite.

He has serious mental problems.
Why are unstable people like this teaching anything to anyone before getting mental help??

Why does everyone on the left want to be a victim?

It's a hat, pussy. The world doesn't revolve around your feelings.
