Legal Iranian immigrant wearing a Trump shirt is CONFRONTED by an old leftist at the gym:
I’m at the gym, minding my own business. This older white guy comes up to me, pointing to my shirt, and says, “Let me talk to you real quick.”
So, I’ll walk over there. I’m like, “What’s up, man?”
He said, “You shouldn’t be wearing that shirt right now. You’re gonna offend a lot of people.”
I was like, “Who? Who am I gonna offend?”
He said, “Immigrants.”
I started laughing, “I’m an immigrant. I support the President.”
He said, “No, you’re not.”
I replied, “Yeah, born and raised in Iran, man.”
He gets all confused and is like, “Well, how about the soldiers? The military is being deployed to target protesters.”
I said, “I like law and order too. I like stores that are not looted. I like taxis that are not burned. I don’t know about you. I support him on that.”
Old leftist: “Well, a lot of people in the military don’t. They’re speaking out. They’re walking away.”
“Well, guess what, man? I’m a veteran too, and the first thing they teach you in the military is that you obey the chain of command. And guess who’s at the top of that chain? It’s the Commander in Chief, the President of the United States.”
“So, I told him this: If you are talking about immigrants, you’re wrong. You’re talking about illegal immigrants. I spent three years in a refugee camp in Turkey, waited my turn with no source of education, no source of income because we knew what was on the other side. And when we got here, we didn’t raise the Iranian flag. We raised the American flag and the Texas flag. And we still do today.”
“So, you’re not talking about immigrants. You’re talking about illegal immigrants. Those people who invaded this country. And anybody in the military that has a problem with this, or like this guy, or those foreigners that are raising the foreign flag, you all are more than welcome to get the hell out and go fight in another place.”
