Hat Ban

For John, BLUF:  Maybe the Good People of Kentucky will decide Representative Yarmuth has served long enough, come 2020.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

‘POISONING YOUNG MINDS’: DEMOCRATIC REP WANTS TO BAN TEENS FROM WEARING MAGA HATS, SAYS HE WAS JOKING

From The Daily Caller, by Education and Politics Reporter, Ms Neetu Chandak, 20 January 2019.

Here is the lede plus three:

House Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth called for banning teens from wearing Make America Great Again (MAGA) hats after a video circulated on social media of an encounter between some Kentucky high school boys and an American Indian group after the March for Life rally Friday.

After facing criticism on Twitter, he mentioned it was an “obvious joke.”

“I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of teenagers wearing MAGA hats until we can figure out what is going on,” Yarmuth posted Sunday on Twitter. “They seem to be poisoning young minds.”

Yarmuth, a Democratic representative from Kentucky, also blamed President Donald Trump for the allegedly negative behavior displayed in a separate tweet.

People have lost their minds.  How else to explain this?

And, no, this was not a joke at the time it was uttered.  There is no space for humor left in any space overviewed by the Social Justice Warriors and AntiFa troops.

Would Representative Yarmuth include banning young Baron Trump from wearing a MAGA hat?
