Another day, yet another instance of unhinged liberals getting physical with peaceful MAGA hat wearers.
Boston’s WHDH reports:
A woman has been charged with disorderly conduct and assault and battery after she was seen yelling at and attacking a man wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat at a Falmouth restaurant.
[…]
Police say [Bryton] Turner was eating dinner at the Casa Vallarta Mexican restaurant with friends when [Rosiane Santos, 41] began yelling at him and pulling the hat with the Trump slogan off his head.
“They weren’t really saying anything to her. All of a sudden, she got up and tried taking the hat off,” said bartender Geo Macario.
Macario says he tried calming the woman down, but she kept going.
Boston 25 News quotes the inebriated woman as saying she was the victim, not Turner:
Santos, a Brazilian immigrant, said while she regrets her actions, she claims she was provoked.
“I had a little bit to drink maybe that’s the reason that I couldn’t walk away but being discriminated for so many times in my life, I just had to stand up for myself,” she said. “He’s not a victim. I am the victim. I have been bullied, OK?”
The bartender told local news outlets that the man was minding his own business, but that the woman allegedly became upset because he was wearing the hat inside of a Mexican restaurant.

This incident follows a number of disturbing instances over the last several weeks of Trump supporters being harassed, threatened, or otherwise targeted while just going about their business.
– In Kentucky, a Tennessee man was carted off to jail after pulling a gun on a MAGA hat wearer shopping at a Sam’s Club.
– A Vans store employee in Overland Park, Kansas was fired after cursing out a teenage customer who was wearing a MAGA hat.
— At a music store in Ohio, a sign on the door urged “Trump sympathizers” to do business elsewhere.
– Fresno, CA high school senior Maddie Mueller was told by her school district that she couldn’t wear her MAGA hat to school because students were only allowed to wear apparel that “promotes a safe and welcoming environment on campus.”
– A celebrity chef in San Mateo, CA reversed course earlier this month over the backlash he received for tweets declaring that his restaurant would not serve MAGA hat wearers.
But it is Republicans who are the intolerant ones … or so I’ve heard.
