Woman who stole 'Make America Great Again' cap from fellow student could be jailed for up to a year



A university student who allegedly stole a cap bearing the message "Make America great again" from a Donald Trump supporter faces up to a year in prison.

Riverside Country District Attorney's Office has filed a charge of theft against University of California student Edith Macias, after she was allegedly filmed brandishing the red hat and condemning racism.

Ms Macias said the message on the hat represented genocide.


A year in jail for a spat at uni - where the property was returned undamaged????? WTF????
