takhar_ Sounds like strategic intimidation. Will Trump followers do the same on voting day?

WTF is a 'Rambo style' truck? Stop making stuff up.

Newsweek keeps fanning the fuel of hate and fear!! They are pathetic

And the Police in most cities can do nothing when they see something like this. Seems we have different standards.

Of course they did. They need more room for the innocent children ICE has kidnapped.

See how your rights have been diminished. This is oppression. Most of you would feel more safe with a tyrannical Government as Lord over you. Wake up, You aren't even living

Wow this is crazy .... Stopped, detained and questioned because he was white with a legal gun and supporting trump 🧐

Rambo didn't drive a pickup..

Translation: Illegal immigrants tried to get a US citizen jailed for no reason.

The poison spreads. And white Evangelicals keep on whistling.

Nice rifle.
