HORRIBLE: NYC man was beaten by group of teens for wearing MAGA hat

A NYC man says he was attacked by a group of teens because he was wearing a MAGA hat, which he’d purchased earlier that day from Trump tower:

Watch the video of Jahangir “John” Turan, 42, in which he describes what happened. You can clearly see the damage to his face – it’s just horrible.

Here’s more from Fox 5:

A New York City art gallery owner says he was viciously beaten in Manhattan by a large group of teens for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat.

Jahangir “John” Turan, 42, says it happened Tuesday evening on Canal Street. He was wearing the MAGA hat that he had purchased earlier in the day at Trump Tower.

“I love President Trump. I think he’s doing a great job,” Turan said.

He says the group of about 15 “kids” yelled “F*** Trump” and stomped on him. One of them smashed his head into a scaffold. Turan says he suffered a fracture in his cheek and a badly swollen eye. He’s awaiting an eye specialist to determine if there is any permanent damage to his sight.

He held a Thursday afternoon news conference to demand that the NYPD find those responsible for the attack.

As for wearing the hat again in New York City, he says he’ll think twice before doing it again.

“It’s sad to get beat up for wearing this hat. This is America,” Turan said.

This is what happens when a very liberal media attacks Trump day in and day out for one thing or another, calling him a racist and suggesting he’s a white supremacist. People like John Turan who support Trump have to suffer the consequences.

Unfortunately Turan joins a litany of other people who’ve also been attacked for wearing a MAGA hat, albeit I think his attack was worse than most.
