Generally, you should be able to appreciate a post without being able to read.

The black and white stripe logo on his hat almost had me thinking it was a "thin blue line" symbol, which would have made this pretty ironic.

Anyone have more context for this image?

I’ve seen the video from someone in the crowd but not sure where. The rep was basically reading from a script and the veteran called him out for screwing them over and called him a liar and that they are betraying veterans. Then when the cops came he started yelling fuck you to the rep. Wish the other folks would have had his back

Not sure of the ‘thin blue line’ part (although it wouldn’t surprise me), but in a Republican Town Hall a bunch of Republican voters were yelling at their rep (who smiled like a cat in the cream) about all the job cuts and stuff. This guy got extra loud about it so the police dragged him out.

So just another leopards eating faces moment, really. For these knuckle-draggers, the fact that their ‘team’ won is more important than losing their jobs… right up until it happens.

Edit: another post, with more context
