There Is Nothing More Sweet Or Innocent Than A Child That Sets Up A Lemonade Stand Or In
This Case, A Hot Chocolate Stand.
But Now That Everything Is Politicized And Children Are Fair Game, The Left Will Stoop
To Harassing Even Children If They Step Out Of Line.
A Seven-Year-Old Boy Was Accosted And Called "Little Hitler" After Setting Up A Hot
Chocolate Stand To Raise Money For President Trump's Border Wall, His Parents Say.
The Child's Name Is Benton Stevens And He Lives In Austin, Texas.
After Watching President Trump's State Of The Union Address On February 5th, Benton
Was Moved To Raise Funds To Help Build The Border Wall Between The Us And Mexico.
His Parents Are Both Active Members With The Republican National Committee.
Benton Has Raised Almost $5,000 Between His Hot Chocolate Stand, A Matching Donor And
Venmo Receipts.
That's Quite An Accomplishment For A 7-Year-Old.
Unfortunately, According To His Parents, Benton Has Lost His Privacy After Videos And Photos
Of Their Son Were Posted To Facebook.
"People Think He's Brainwashed," His Mother, Jennifer, Said.
"Well, Of Course, He Supports Trump Because We Do, And He Hears How We Talk And This And
That.
Call That Brainwashing, But I Call It Parenting Because We Instill Our Values In Him."
Young Benton Set Up His Stand Over The Weekend At A Strip Mall Northeast Of Austin.
His Brothers And Parents Helped Him Set It Up.
They Made Signs And Brewed Hot Chocolate With Him.
Within An Hour, His Parents Say, He Made About $231.
Tragically, He Was Forced To Shut Down After Patrons Complained To The Store Owner Benton
Had Placed His Stand In Front Of.
What Kind Of Petty Monster Does Something Like That?
A Leftist One.
"I Guess Some Liberals – Or Whatever You Want To Call Them – They Were Griping At
The Owner (Of The Store) And Going In And Yelling At Him And Slamming Him On Facebook,"
His Mother, Jennifer, Said.
Extortion By Facebook…
Typical.
All Of This Did Not Stop Benton, Who Is Actually Fired Up By The Responses He Got From The
Public.
He Set His Stand Up Again The Next Day And Was Harassed In Person And Online.
"He Was Called A Little Hitler Yesterday," His Mother Said.
"A Guy Pointed At Him In His Car And Then He Said That We Didn't Like Brown People.
I Don't Understand That At All."
What A Jerk.
The Family Is Standing Strong On Principle Though And Vow That The Money Raised Will
Go Directly Towards Funding The Wall.
"There's A Gofundme Page And We're Also Part Of The Rnc And We're Pretty Connected
There So We Will 100 Percent Make Sure It Goes Towards The Wall," They Said.
"Gofundme Donations Can Be Funneled To The Trump Administration Through A Category Called
"Gifts To The United States" For "General Use By The Federal Government," But Donating
To Specific Government Projects Is A Much More Complicated And Unclear Process, According
To Business Insider.
"In Light Of All The Publicity Surrounding Benton's Border Wall Fundraiser, His Father
Told Fox News That It's Actually Inspired Some Reconciliation Across Party Lines In
Their Texas Town.
"People Who Were Originally Very Mean Have Started Apologizing For What They Said And
Sticking Up For Benton," Shane Said.
"He Is Close To $5,000 Raised Now And Is Thinking About Doing A Free Hot Chocolate
Stand For People From Both Sides Of The Debate Since There Are So Many From Both Sides Sticking
Up For Him."'
The Family Should Send Their Funds To Triple-Amputee Veteran Brian Kolfage For The "We Build
The Wall" Movement.
They Are Already On The Border And Working On The Wall.
And I Bet There Is A Visit To The White House In Benton's Future Somewhere.
