A man who received a spoiled burrito from a coffee stand in Fairbanks simply because he was wearing a MAGA hat wants to remain private and has chosen to forgive and forget the poor treatment he received at the Fairbanks Espresso stand.
The coffee stand owner publicized the man’s name on social media, however. It appears she scraped his name from his credit card receipt to “dox” him on Facebook. She also called him a fascist on social media because of his support for President Donald Trump.

The young man who received the defiled burrito has been approached by the mainstream media for interviews, but he says he just wants to forgive the woman and move on. He doesn’t think he can get fair treatment from the reporters.
Here, in his own words, is his decision:
“After careful consideration I believe that in this time of national pain, the appropriate thing for me to do is forgive. I have great confidence that the residents of the Golden Heart City, the GreatLand, and the home of the Brave know that bigoted discrimination is wrong. There is no where else I would rather live.
“I am choosing to put aside the lies that have been spread about me, my actions, my beliefs, and the beliefs of millions of Americans. This unprovoked and cowardly act has been widely criticized in the court of public opinion. I see no need to press this issue any further. I hope someday that this young lady will seek healing and when that day comes the good people of this nation will be willing to listen and care for her.
“I am choosing to remain anonymous as this issue has never been about me nor was it of my choosing to be in the spotlight. This was about her intolerance and internal struggles. I am choosing to write to you because the other media outlets have lost my trust that they will be fair journalists.”
End or story? Or will the State Department of Law look into the misuse of credit card information?
Meanwhile, a Black Lives Matter encampment has developed around the coffee stand, complete with food tent and several portable toilets, for supporters to stay on site ostensibly to protect the food stand from Trump supporters.
The clientele has sorted itself out, with liberals bringing their business to Fairbanks Espresso, while Trump supporters are taking their business elsewhere, honoring the Fairbanks Espresso owner’s request.
