Woman told she cannot vote at a polling station in New Hampshire because she was wearing a t-shirt that said "McCain Hero, Trump Zero".
So she took it off and voted topless.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

That election official was likely a right wing nut job trying to stop a citizen voting because she wasn't going to vote for his groppenfuhrer.
I would say that was a gross misuse of election law and if I were the citizen involved, I'd complain him.

These people are completely conned and are a walking irony, like when “Fortunate Son” played recently as Trump was getting off his plane.

Trump nominated for second Nobel Peace Prize
How?
Quote:President Trump has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for a second time this week — this time for brokering a historic peace deal between Serbia and breakaway republic Kosovo.
Hopefully, the judges are smart enough to not award it to him.

I think (but I could be wrong) that the US has laws prohibiting electioneering at or near a polling station.

Edit: I looked it up and found this:
Quote:If you are planning to wear a hat, t-shirt, button, or anything else in support of your favorite candidate, please remember to cover or remove those items before entering the polls. Due to a recent change in law, these items are also not allowed inside the "No Electioneering Zone." This is in accordance with New Hampshire State Law (RSA) 659:43 relative to "Distributing Campaign Materials at Polling Place."
So, it seems as if the moderator was simply doing what he’s supposed to do, and there doesn’t seem to be any reason to tag him as ‘a right wing nut job’. In any case, the woman was allowed to vote.

It's easy to get nominated. For instance, Hitler, Stalin, Milosevic, W. Bush were all nominated for it.
I guess it would be fun to watch Trump as he reacts to Greta Thunberg getting one this year (although it will probably not happen), or, even better, Colin Kaepernick!

Stupid fucking law then. And I bet if the woman was wearing a maga hat nothing would be said.

That may be correct, as a MAGA hat doesn't mention a candidate. Also, this was a state Republican primary election, so the woman couldn't have voted for or against Trump in any case (he wasn't on the ballot).
