https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/416566-video-shows-mans-profanity-laced-rant-against-confederateA video this week shows a Texas man going on a profanity-laced tirade aimed at a couple who was protesting a Confederate monument.
The unidentified man can be seen and heard swearing at the protesters, saying what gives you the right to be f---ing protesting America.
The couple have been protesting the five-year-old Confederate Memorial periodically all year, according to the Beaumont Enterprise.
The man reportedly told the couple he would "feel better if you f---ing Democrats would go to hell."

The man first yelled at the couple while driving past, then circled back and parked his truck at a convenience store and then walked across the street to confront them.
As the man walked away following his rant, the woman told him that Jesus loves him, prompting a response of "Jesus f---ing hates you."

It took some effort to realize they were wire-rimmed yellow mirror sunglasses pushed back on his skull.
It would have been great if he had 2 fried eggs on his head while bellowing and cursing out "damned Democrats."
"Look what y'all did to our country!"
That was fun, thank you, highplainsdem.

which was at war with America......so. NOT protesting America.
