Source: Fox 5 San Diego

SAN DIEGO -- A vocal Donald Trump supporter whose business was vandalized last month for his political views allegedly pointed a gun at a group of people who were caught damaging his Trump campaign sign.
“I have the right to put up any sign supporting my candidate of choice, as well as anyone else does,” said Trump supporter Taren Meacham.

Meacham was involved in an incident Wednesday night with a group of people who were damaging his property because of his support for Trump.

In surveillance video shot Wednesday night, a group of people were seen in front of Meacham’s tattoo shop. They take notice of his Trump campaign sign, knock it down and begin to jump on top of it.
