    Default (Speakers corner) MAGA hats!

    We all saw the video of the kids and the Native American. Yes I saw parts of the Black Hebrews hate filled speech. But what's with the kid getting in the face of the gentlemen wearing a MAGA hat. (let's forget that point for a minute) How many of you people in your everyday life, go out in public in California and see people wearing a Red MAGA hat? I haven't seen anybody in over a year plus wearing one in CA.

    Let me tell you a little story about myself.

    In my 20's and 30's (I'm almost 60 now) I was an inner continental sportsmen. In the West my home range was from Alaska to Mainland Mexico and everything in between. In the East my range was from Newfoundland to Florida and everything North and South to East and West in North America. (basically I was every where there was something interesting to do as a sportsman) My Mountain Lion story in Colorado is legendary on here. But my most unusual adventure was probably an Alligator hunt in Louisiana. In doing these unusual adventures I came to a conclusion 30 years ago by accident. I wasn't political then, I was a registered Republican and voted a straight Republican ticket till 2000. But my conclusion was, if you weren't from the West coast or New England you had some funny ideas about everything. (I wanted to say they were a bunch of hicks but that might offend people) lol

    What I didn't find in other states, was an open minded attitude to other people who didn't look like them! In CA my friends are my friends and they don't all have to look like me. As I became more interested in politics, I noticed the same states that had those funny idea's are all Red states! 30 years ago I would not have connected those dot's.

    So now here is the question.

    Is the MAGA hat a sign of racism?

    Does it mean the same thing in every state?

    This is just my opinion, but if I saw someone wearing a MAGA hat in California. That might as well be wearing an KKK hood and robs. I think it means the same thing because they live in California and know we get along very nicely with our neighbors. I can't say what it means to other people in other states. But most people by now should realize Trump wasn't an economic messiah to most people!
