By their ignorance ye shall know wingnuts. He says he didnt vote for DRUMPF, yet the flags of his ignorance all point that way. Wingnuts, whose antipathy to Anybody-Different will keep shrinking their numbers, dont realize that their best bet for recruitment are Documented immigrants, who are GUNG HO over their becoming textbook Americans. So, first, this a-hole slaps the new U.S. Citizens. Second, he has zero grasp of Civil Disobedience, but for sure he regards big cash in politics as Free Speech.

[font size=5]Texas judge tells brand-new U.S. citizens to leave country if they dont like Donald Trump[/font]
.... Primomo also used the off-the-rails speech to lash out at people who protest during the National Anthem, such as NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, known for kneeling on the field during the song.
I detest that, because you can protest things that happen in this country; you have every right to, Primomo said. You don't do that by offending national symbols like the national anthem and the flag of the United States.
The judge later clarified his bizarre statements.
He had hoped the speech be a message of unity, he told the news channel. He claimed he did not vote for Donald Trump, and said he was simply encouraging the new citizens to have respect for the presidency and not taking a political stance.
Despite the comments, the new American citizens did not waver in their passion for their new country.
It is exciting to be an American. I believe that America is bigger than whoever is in office, Iraqi native Mohammed Al Farradh said.

(100,068 posts)Freedom of speech means you have the absolute fundamental right to protest whoever is in office, and they forget they've been doing this since Obama was in office. We do it to them for one fucking week and they run with their tail between their legs and accuse of us of being hateful and intolerant. Bullshit. Going to be a long 4 years.
