He expresses no remorse and indicates that he mwant to do it again. He had his day in court. The judge should give him the max sentence of 90 days and $500. Additionally, the judge should order the thug to stay some minimum distance from any future Trump rallies.

Could the order also include sending a SWAT team to his house to confiscate all of his balloons? Should he be on a list that denies him the ability to purchase balloons?

Can you imagine if this had been done at an Obama rally during his presidency?

Water is a chemical compound...perhaps he could have been charged with terrorism. :rolleyes:
There is no doubt that some of the people who were at the time hit with an unknown liquid felt terrorized, this should have not been a mideamener. What if next time he goes off his meds he uses something more dangerous. He belongs in a mental hospital.

Alas water bottles are considered “weapons” in some areas why not water balloons...

Just another LWW venting his anger and frustration.
There is a link in the article to the profanity-laced video on YouTube that he posted. Considering that it was an attack on Trump supporters, I am NOT surprised that YouTube has apparently decided to leave this hate-filled rant up for viewing.
Any bet on how fast they would have reacted to somebody doing the same thing but to a group of Obama or Hillary supporters?

this country has lost its sense of humor

You think it's humorous to hurl half-quart sizes of substances at people that remain unknown until after they're analyzed?

Tell that to my friend Mike who was hit by a water balloon in 1983 and lost part of his eyesight because the bastard who threw it did so through a windows.

And yes, it was just water, too.

Since9, so great you chastise someone with a 33 year olde storyline without one iota of background...e.g., young adults or familial entities engaged in an afternoon of summer fun on a hot afternoon playfully wetting one an all down when a singular bit of exuberance took over and tragically an unintentional accident occurred? Or do you mean while at a public venue, park, someone purposely and spitefully targeted an your dear friend Mike with a water ballon which penetrated a glass window?

So accident or purposely ~ makes a tremendous difference huh!
