Silent protester at Trump rally + unknowingly was captured in a photo that sums up the 2016 election

Absolutely I'll share. As the title says, I went to a Trump rally in that shirt. I thought it would be funny and was kind of a form of protest. After all, I wasn't actively chanting or waving a banner or anything like that. I was booed immediately when I walked in, and after a cop approached me this guy came up to me and asked me to turn the shirt inside out. I thought it was an unreasonable request so I denied it, and then he said something to the effect of "if you try anything funny I'll kick your ass." Obviously a scare tactic, I wasn't worried at all about a grown man trying to beat up an 18 year old kid. There were many instances like this, but some supporters were kind and considerate.
