(6,045 posts)It disgust me how profitable Right Wing Hate, Christian Hate & Conspiratorial Hate has become in America! If a Right Wing Christian Conservative Conspiracy NUT JOB POS is not making 10's of millions of dollar$ selling their brand HATE on the TV/Radio/Books then they're suing someone for hurting they're feelings!!!

(915 posts)That asshole and his smirk don't deserve any lawsuit winnings at all, imo.
He did not have to step right up into that Native American's face, after all, all the protester wanted to do was get by the asshole in order to go up the steps; but the smirking punk stood in his way!

(307 posts)I think we're going to hear more about this kid. He's emboldened now, and definitely has an attitude problem. On the bright side, he's going to screw with the wrong person at the wrong time soon and get his teeth kicked in -- or worse. (Think of the path that George Zimmerman has forged.) Then we can all cheer.
