A Colorado man is facing possible bias-motivated charges for allegedly attacking a television news reporter after demanding to know whether he was a citizen, saying “This is Trump’s America now,” according to court documents.

      He’s gunna have a problem, he yelled about being a marine so they’re probably going to slap his ass in a uniform throw him before tribunal and hit him with conduct unbecoming and if they want they can hit him again with whatever he gets convicted of.

        Article also says he’s 39 and was driving a taxi so in this instance, “I’m a Marine,” probably indicates that he was formerly in the Marine corps. Once a Marine, always a Marine, or so they say.

        You’re forgetting who’s America this is. I would not be surprised in the least if he gets off pretty much scot-free because he had “good intentions” and was just “defending his country”.
