Indigenous Peoples' March Washington, DC

Post Reply New Topic

Here's some facts for you;
1. The march was organised to protest abortion yet the Covington boys were wearing MAGA hats
2. The teens had been filmed at basketball games being racist at opposition teams
3. They were filmed sexually harrasing girls along the march
4. There were hundreds of schoolboys but only four black Israelites. Therefore there was never any physical threat to the Covington schoolboys as falsely claimed by the mother and by Fox news
5. The boys and their adult minders crossed the street away from the main march in order to confront the 4 black Israelites
(the black Israelites were preoccupied with shouting obscenities at people on their side of the street (mainly aimed at African Americans who are actually their target audience). Fox news made it sound like the blacks were there to specifically target the march (another falsehood)
6. The black Israelites were known to the Covington school boys (i.e. no shock at their behaviour), the boys targeted them because they were bored of the antiabortion march and thought it would be more fun to chant pro-Trump slogans at the "blacks" and incite them
7. Nathan Phillips was concerned for the welfare of the 4 black men surrounded by the hundred or so youth (he never intended to accost the kids to cause trouble as his group was badly outnumbered) (another falsehood)
6. The teenagers behind the MAGA teen facing off with Phillips were i) shouting the n-word and ii) racially abusing native Americans. They apparently did not care what Phillip's intentions were as they assumed since he was not white he was lumped in with the blacks.
7. The MAGA teen's face off at 64 yr old Phillips was classic school boy intimidation knowing he had hundreds of thugs to back him up he was smugly daring the tiny group of native Americans to do something to provide a trigger to fight. There was absolutely nothing brave about the little coward's behavior
8. Somehow the adult minders with the school boys managed to avoid responsibility despite egging on the teens.

I saw one kid yell “It’s not rape if you enjoy it”.

So anyone who disagree's with your viewpoint of the situation is a nazi , racist , bigot. Is that what your saying ?

Let someone else tell you what to think.

Almost NO ONE is going to watch the news and then go fact check everything reported. Like WTF? It's reporters' jobs to present the facts, not just make s**t up.

Are we supposed to watch some news about war and then go fly to a conflict zone and see if it's accurate? Like get f*****g real.

No. Anyone with half a brain realizes full well that that's what that hat represents to those who see people wearing them, so to support someone's right to wear that hat is a nod to supporting those things. Full stop.

It has nothing to do with disagreeing with my viewpoint and everything to do with common public perception of what maga hats have come to symbolize. Pretending they're ignorant of what they are perceived as and they're just really really big fans of guys with orange spray tans is total BS.

That's your choice , but some of us don't believe the media as they can be corrupt and have an agenda that's not the truth.

I'm not sure that kid was from Covington , in a video I heard someone say he's not from Covington straight after his comment. Is he from Covington ? Not that changes anything , the kid was a dick.

Ah! So we are stupid. Thanks for your insight.

It's either that or pretending to be.

More than 50 media organizations, celebrities and politicians were sent letters from lawyers representing the Covington Catholic High School student seen in a controversial viral video -- the first step in a possible libel and defamation lawsuit -- and the teen's legal team also released a 15-minute video that they say shows "the truth" about his interactions at last month's March For Life.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., actors Alyssa Milano and Jim Carey, media organizations CNN, the New York Times and the Washington Post and the Diocese of Covington were among the dozens recently sent preservation letters, the text of which advised the parties not to destroy any documents in connection with the case. The Cincinnati Enquirer first reported on Friday the initial list of organizations, and attorney Todd McMurtry confirmed to Fox News on Monday that more organizations or individuals could also receive letters.

“It’s an enormous pool of possible defendants,” he said, adding only one party had responded to the letter, though he did not say which.

McMurtry, of the Hemmer DeFrank Wessels law firm in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, is part of the legal team representing Nick Sandmann

McMurtry told the Enquirer the aftermath of the incident “permanently stained [Nick’s reputation]” and that the organizations and individuals addressed in the letters may have defamed or libeled Nick with false reporting.

He told Fox News that not everyone who received the letter could be called to defend themselves in a court, but that they have basis to believe that they could be sued. He added the documents that should be preserved for any future litigation include any drafts of stories, emails between colleagues discussing the incident, and, for celebrities and individuals, any tweets or statements sent to the public.

In addition to the letters, Sandmann’s legal team – which includes L. Lin Wood, a nationally-recognized attorney in the fields of libel, defamation and the First Amendment – also released a 15-minute video they say show "the truth" of what happened at the March for Life event.

I read multiple news sources for different perspectives, but I don't spend much time fact checking any of them.. because it's impossible. Am I to travel around the world and interview their sources with a team of lie detecting experts?
