I've been searching for one news item, tweet or post condemning the group who harassed the kids with some terrible stuff, but can't seem to find it. Everybody is zeroing on the white kids who weren't nearly as bad. And then there's the American Indian who said the kids surrounded him when he actually approached them. Where's the uproar about them? I guess they're all nice people because they weren't wearing MAGA hats.
The MAGA hat has now replaced the Klu Klux Klan outfit as the most reliable identifier of an awful person in the US.
Imagining that things must be true just because we imagine them is a lot of fun. But the truth is that a lot of teenagers are wearing MAGA hats just because it is a trend. Vox did an article about this. You can read it here:

I am a liberal who is outraged that the Covington kids are receiving death threats, and people have actually threatened to do terrorist attacks on the whole school. The kid just wore a hat that you don't like and smiled in an awkward situation, dumbasses!
I'm a liberal. I supported Bernie Sanders in 2016. After he dropped out, I supported Hillary Clinton. I have never voted Republican in my life, and I am certainly not going to start now. But I have decided that I am going to start wearing a MAGA hat (one of the cheap walmart ones, not an official Trump campaign hat), simply to support liberal values.
Illiberal elements on the left are completely out of control.
