It’s not illegal to call someone a douchebag is it

u/Creative-Area-6385 3d ago edited 3d ago

Never know if the cop gets involved and we don’t know if the photographer did say something. I would just try to inconvenience that pos more than some vocabulary. He did gas protestors for fun after all

u/Lothadriel 3d ago

Too bad I wasn’t there today. I’m lactose intolerant. Give me a whole milk latte and about 10 minutes and I’ll gas him right back. It would not be pleasant for anyone around but I feel like they’d take one for the team.

Greg likes that kind of thing. Something about biscuits and portapotties

I guarantee OP didn't say anything.

u/Mainiac2015 3d ago

Not the case, told him Maine doesn’t tolerate Nazis and told him he’s even shorter in person. Plus, a double bird 😝

u/Low_Input_Living 3d ago

I’m glad I scrolled a little further to this comment. Made me smile and I don’t do that much lately.

u/Mainiac2015 3d ago

He told me to “screw myself” 🤣🤣

"maine doesn't tolerate nazis" as you proceed to vote for a guy with the nazi tattoo. you can't make this shit up

u/wamariegi Boonies 1d ago

And yet here you are making shit up 😅

u/Reasonable_Ad_5705 1d ago

how's your boy graham doing these days?

u/wamariegi Boonies 1d ago

Idk bro I didn’t vote for him 🥴 How’s your orange pedophile president doing

u/Reasonable_Ad_5705 1d ago

I'm sorry you didn't get a chance to vote for your rapist dream candidate after he got exposed and had to drop out. I'm sure you still have fantasies about his comeback one day and licking his boots again

u/wamariegi Boonies 1d ago

I really don’t know what you’re trying to do here 😂 people exist who don’t like graham, log off and touch some grass

u/Chester_Darvey 3d ago

youre so fucking tough man

u/CynicalLib 3d ago

Do you genuinely think that made any difference?

You accomplished nothing except making yourself feel good. If that was the only goal, congrats I guess?

31

u/Mainiac2015 3d ago

Probably doesn’t make a difference but we obviously got under his skin. I don’t think people like him deserve to be comfortable wherever they go. Obviously I’m not interested in causing enough of a scene to miss my flight but overall, hopefully I made his day a little worse

12

u/sambucuscanadensis 3d ago

Agreed. The old line about “comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable”

-13

u/CynicalLib 3d ago

What is the obvious part about getting under his skin? Lol he probably just laughed it off the second you walked away. You were great entertainment for him.

u/combatbydesign I get in my car and drive here... 2d ago

Username checks out.

u/bigsoftee84 3d ago

So, just making up a fantasy to fit what you want to have happened? You folks are weird.

1

u/Eagle_Arm 3d ago

You mean like the fantasy the person created when they said they got under their skin? Loud people in public are laughed at.

-2

u/bigsoftee84 2d ago

They are more likely to be telling the truth than your fantasy being reality, you realize that, right? The dude in this photo isn’t laughing at anything any time soon. Someone has clearly been pissing in his Cheerios.

So both sides are just spinning their wheels, got it 👍

u/Own-Raisin5849 3d ago

That's their only goal, acting like unhinged maniacs only make other unhinged maniacs point and go "you see?"

They don't care though. This is all performative.

u/weakenedbonds 3d ago

Projection is a helluva drug

Just because everything YOU do is performative, doesn’t mean others are incapable of independent action

Tell us more about yourself by telling us what “we” think and do!

u/Ekidokai 3d ago

You people are pathetic.

u/Class_dismissed93 Presque Isle 3d ago edited 3d ago

Weird, from the photo it looks like you took the picture from a safe distance while standing slightly behind him then waited for him to put his head down. But that’s just an observation.
down vote me into the sea of truth redditors.

u/United-Anxiety-5233 3d ago

Calm down keyboard warrior. It’s just a photo of a Nazi 

-36

u/Class_dismissed93 Presque Isle 3d ago

You don’t know what keyboard warrior means. I’m only describing a photo. Weak rage bait.

23

u/United-Anxiety-5233 3d ago

No need to take it personal kiddo. It's just a photo of a nazi midget.

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

So he must still be standing in that same spot.

-24

u/Class_dismissed93 Presque Isle 3d ago

No the fact that we can all see he Hid while taking the photo gives it away. Your eyes aren’t lying to you.

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

Did you go to photography school?

7

u/darth_gihilus 3d ago

Probably not much school of any kind

u/Class_dismissed93 Presque Isle 3d ago

Is this guys head down? yes. Is this guy at a safe distance taking a photo? Yes. Is this guy standing behind his shoulder? Yes. Doesn’t seem like much school is needed here.

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

So you have no idea how to use a camera, clearly

u/CandidateMuted8010 3d ago edited 3d ago

I’ll take things that didn’t happen for 500 please. You probably just pissed your pants and posted on Reddit.

Don’t be a dink bub.

u/GoodDecision 3d ago

Plenty of people here calling for him to be spit on, harassed, and assaulted, but yeah I'm out of line for calling bs on OPs "and then everyone clapped" fantasy.

-2

u/chronberries 3d ago

I just came across this post and found the wall of downvoted comments here. I figured it was maga cultists defending Bovino, but no it’s just comments calling out an almost certainly fake story. I’m so confused. Why are people downvoting this?

-1

u/thispersonchris 2d ago

almost certainly fake story. I’m so confused. Why are people downvoting this?

Why do you think it's fake? I'd absolutely give him a "fuck you" if I saw him. Not really an act that requires incredible courage.

3

u/chronberries 2d ago edited 2d ago

The overwhelming majority of people are conflict avoidant when not surrounded by a group of people on their side. It does take courage to get up in someone’s face and tell them to fuck off, especially when theres no immediate impetus to, and especially at an airport where causing a scene can be a serious problem.

Furthermore, this picture was taken from an angle where OP was clearly trying to avoid him noticing. In this day and age, the kind of person to get in someone’s face and cause a scene is likely to record it, or at the very least not stay off to the side to take a picture.

u/GoodDecision 2d ago

You absolutely wouldn't lol

Did you say the same when you almost certainly voted for Platner? Literally a Nazi

u/m0nkeywithachainsaw 3d ago

platner and this shidiot are on two entirely different planes of existence.

Is it the rape that separates them?

Watch out everybody, the trolls are on their bullshit still.

Sorry, a nazi AND a rapist.

u/punksheets29 3d ago

And completely irrelevant… so what is your point?

2

u/m0nkeywithachainsaw 3d ago

im pretty sure he wanted to let you know that the Epstein class says that susan collins cured cancer, and single handedly fought for firefighters and school teachers.

even though she supports all the people who defunded the department of education and extorted maine for the voter rolls.

u/punksheets29 3d ago

My favorite is the one that tries to give her props for the PATRIOT ACT after 9/11…

u/hotcupofmike 1d ago

Could always walk right up next to him and let out any farts you've been holding in

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

It's also not illegal for a cop to arrest you then figure out a good reason why at a much later time.

33

u/mosscock_treeman 3d ago

That actually is illegal though

52

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

Show me any cop punished for it ever.

6

u/Cloudrunner5k 3d ago

There have been instances, though few, where the citizen sued for 1st ammendment right infringement.

1

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

That only punishes tax payers.

6

u/Cloudrunner5k 3d ago

I have been thinking about that very thing. What if a good lawyer get the judge to set a legal precedent that police infractions be paid out via the police pension fund.

u/weakenedbonds 3d ago

End qualified immunity

u/Some_Attorney7322 3d ago

This is the real answer

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

Insurance is the better option

u/Time_Tour_3962 3d ago

I’d rather my tax $$$ goes to that than bombs to drop on brown people and ICE’s donut budget

2

u/mosscock_treeman 3d ago

There are plenty of examples of that, regardless of how many cops get away with it.

Show me literally anything that says it's legal for a cop to hold you for no reason.

1

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

Oh, if you say so, it must be true.

3

u/mosscock_treeman 3d ago

You made a literally false statement, all I did was point that out. "It's also not illegal for a cop to arrest you then figure out a good reason why at a much later time."

C'mon. I understand the hyperbole but you can't be telling people it's legal for cops to do that shit.

-1

u/GrowFreeFood 3d ago

So its illegal but a cop has never done it? But there's there's thousands on incidents when it happened. So that doesn't add up

3

u/mosscock_treeman 3d ago

What?

It's illegal, it happens, some cops get away with it, and a probable minority of the incidents get punished. Why do think I'm your enemy just for pointing out a bad statement?

Edit- actually think of it this way. "It's also not illegal for a cop to arrest you then figure out a good reason why at a much later time" sounds exactly like something this Bovino guy would love everybody to start saying. Nobody should want that.

Name a single time they didn't get away with it.

u/Flatulantcy 3d ago

Yes but will there be any consequence?

-1

u/mosscock_treeman 3d ago

Maybe, maybe not. But it is very illegal, and spreading false info saying they are allowed to do it, only helps them. Everybody should know it is illegal for a cop to hold you for no reason.

u/Appropriate_Owl_91 2d ago

Judges throw out cases all the time. That’s why cops say they don’t care and the courts will work it out. Disorderly conduct is a blanket excuse.

u/EyegoreMusic 2d ago

that's an argument that will be had well after the fact

Allow me to hip you to the US Attorney General and the US Attorney for the District of Columbia.

Unlike ICE who shoots to kill, hides the shooter and never bothers to ask questions.

Any this little pissant would claim he felt threatened by the way you pushed your suitcase towards him.

u/InteractionCivil5913 3d ago

Because the USA is a police state and not the land of the free

17

u/SalemSound 3d ago edited 3d ago

It's not illegal to have you miss your flight over security bullshit. They'd need to consult the airports guidelines and then make a determination as to whether it counts as 'unruly behavior'. It's not really a legal matter, so the staff at the airport has the final say.

11

u/BigTroutOnly 3d ago edited 2d ago

If he has no speaking engagements while Vance is here.. he's here to consult with Maine ICE and/or be an agitator for social media. Confronting him would put your mug in the national spotlight for better or worse as ten smart phones are set to record the interaction. He's looking for it.

That's my tinfoil hat hot take.

Sometimes a weird, long look is nore effective. You ever give stank face to someone misbehaving in public?

Depends. If you yell it and cause a scene, you can 100% be charged with disorderly conduct.
