San Francisco Tattoo Shop Owner Harassed After Being Mistakenly ID’d as Trump Supporter

[RandySF]

A Mission District tattoo shop owner says he is in the midst of a political firestorm after being mistakenly identified as a Donald Trump supporter.

Political views have turned dangerous for the San Francisco man, who requested to remain anonymous. He said that someone tossed a rock through his store’s window, smashing it.

The business owner has been struggling with vandalism for the month, but said he does not support Trump – his boyfriend does.

Other Bay Area voters are also frustrated. They say they're losing the right to have an opinion, in fear of retaliation.
It “really ticks me off,” said Sharon Fraetis, a Hillary Clinton supporter.

The Lafayette woman was targeted in just the latest in a series of troubling incidents during the final weeks of the 2016 election cycle.

Someone pulled down Clinton signs from her house.

I'd love if some guys from SF went to his shop and sang this to him! LOL And yes, I hope no one vandalizes anything else of his, that's wrong.

3. I'm sorry his business got vandalized.

I admit it would be far harder for me to muster up any sympathy for him had he actually been a Trump supporter. I can tolerate other people's beliefs, no matter how stupid I might think they are, just fine if they're not capable of hurting this country, everything it stands for, and the people who occupy it. Thinking Donald Trump should be POTUS is clearly not that kind of belief.

5. We are no better than them if we think this is somehow cool.

It's not.
