Maybe you should do some research. Those Native Americans were yelling at the kids and telling them to "go back to Europe."

Imagine a white guy saying "go back to Africa" to a black man. That person would get called out by the media for sure.

But here we have some high school kids in MAGA hats minding their own business. Some Indian comes up banging a drum and chanting at them. Somehow it's the kids' fault.

The MSM are clearly liars.

I bet that kid can run a play in football, there's no excuse for standing there smiling like an idiot, trying to show off your bigotry to your friends.


No excuse for standing where you were already standing?

Oh he had the audacity to smile did he what a f*****g monster.

It seem that peoples generally consider him having a smug smile, and on that NTs are better than us to see such things. (I do see his smile as "smug")

I understand that you're making a comment, but it doesn't answer my question about whether my application of the logic is correct or incorrect. My question remains unanswered.

We need to stop focusing on that one kid. Young people can't always be held responsible for their actions. Where were the Catholic school adults here? It seems like it would be a learning opportunity, and became a failure of leadership.

Yes, the people that wear a Che t-shirt advocate murderous rage in the context of certain extreme political upheavals.

I disagree. It's not possible to know exactly why every person who wears a Che t shirt wears the shirt. Che means more and different things to different people than just to "advocate murderous rage in the context of certain extreme political upheavals."

I don't have a side. But often there's more to a story then what's first presented. And yes I do tend to question things rather than just accept something at face value.

Why am I always having to talk about myself instead of the topic?

Assaulting people is free speech now?

Totally irrelevant. Wearing a Hitler shirt means you advocate genocide and it doesn't matter if you just say he had a cool mustache.

Seems pretty congruent with the footage posted.

Thanks. I was interested in hearing that student's description of what took place.

I think he is being wrongfully vilified.

Which makes that old man kind of like Jesus.

WOW


He's saying that now he has been caught out.

Mob VS native elder, and now they are the victim.

Just go to hell.


Not a mob. A bunch of teenage boys waiting for a bus. The adult man may have been elderly but he was an adult. An adult who violated the personal space of a boy to intimidate him. The only Mob here is the online Mob attempting to ruin the life of a child.

I agree his smile looks smug but that doesn't mean he is smug. People are judging him for how he looks which is very prejudice.

"The protestor everyone has seen in the video began playing his drum as he waded into the crowd, which parted for him. I did not see anyone try to block his path. He locked eyes with me and approached me, coming within inches of my face. He played his drum the entire time he was in my face.

I never interacted with this protestor. I did not speak to him. I did not make any hand gestures or other aggressive moves. To be honest, I was startled and confused as to why he had approached me. We had already been yelled at by another group of protestors, and when the second group approached I was worried that a situation was getting out of control where adults were attempting to provoke teenagers.

I believed that by remaining motionless and calm, I was helping to diffuse the situation. I realized everyone had cameras and that perhaps a group of adults was trying to provoke a group of teenagers into a larger conflict. I said a silent prayer that the situation would not get out of hand."

We all know if it was an old white man behaving like this towards native American children, all these people attacking the white kid would be attacking the old white man in that scenario.

I agree that if you switch around the age, ethnicity and gender of the two involved, the scenario would be viewed differently. Really I think just removing the maga hat, would change the scenario.
