Every citizen in this country should take the time to read it, in my opinion. It absolutely places bold and clear highlights on example after example of the nonsense and race obsession that is being wildly spewed for political purposes. Zero ability to look at a particular event - any event - with balance and wisdom.
Page 12 of the thread and almost complete silence about the 800 pound elephant that has been in the room from word go............ The actual disgusting and vile actions of the real bigots and racists in the situation. (Hint for my friends on the radical left with severe vision impairment - It's not the high school kids wearing red hats)
Of course it is. You can't wear one of those hats and get away being anything other than a moron and/or bigot.
There was a very long thread that covered this issue. I don't take the extreme position EA does but it is dumb to say these kids are 100% innocent and victims. ARguing with natives, telling them they're not really indigenous during their demonstration is like going to a black pride parade and telling them they have nothing to be proud about. Saying "it isn't rape if you enjoy it" is about as disgusting a comment someone could make, and it makes it even more disgusting that a kid is saying it. But given the present company, hardly a surprise.
There’s not a lot of room to take a position less “extreme” than mine and not believe they are 100% innocent of all wrong-doing. My super-radical criticism involves stating people should feel bad for being jerks and commit to being better people in the future.
If you don’t think there was a passive agressive stare down or racial taunting, then it is pretty hard to argue they were doing anything wrong.

Yet once again reality disagrees with you...why bother with actual facts when "seems to you" is the sail of your ship.
If there were lies, it was by Phillips. I posted the lawsuit and it is filled with vague allegations of lies without really providing concrete examples where Washington Post said X was a definitive fact and then X turning out not to be a definitive fact. It was more along the lines of basically saying, the "gist" of what Washington Post said was X and in our investigation we concluded X is false.[/quote] A simple search of the articles in Washington Post seem to disagree with your interpretation of reality.

You sure do seem to be perpetually focused on a facecrime while ignoring adults hurling racist invective at kids who were told to stand there.
You're such a clown sometimes.

Unbelievable!
I sincerely hope that a silent majority exists in America and that the 2020 election will reject and dismiss this type of nonsensical thought.

We shall see.
There’s a lot of nonsensical thought these days needing rejection.

I have in no uncertain terms also said what they were doing was bad at least a half dozen times. The fact that everyone knows what they were doing was bad and they are insignificant in the big scheme of things doesn’t leave much room for continued commentary. This is about as classic whataboutism as exists.

Yes, the existence of people who think doing tomahawk chops and mock chanting to a Native American’s face is bad is a solid basis for wanting Donald Trump to be President. That’ll show em.
So, the kid was in flagrante delicto because MAGA hat and a face.
