..........all I could think of was Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's testimony about how all she could remember from when Kavanaugh was assaulting her was the laughing she heard in the background.
What makes it even worse is NOT the idea that these entitled shits were chanting, "Build that wall" at an indigenous person (someone whose ancestors were here BEFORE they were), which pretty much tells you the intelligence level you're dealing with, but they were on a SCHOOL TRIP to attend the Anti-Choice March (which means their hate was school-sponsored--the school superintendent was on the trip with them). You wonder where these hate-filled RWers come from? They're being indoctrinated by their parents, and now it appears, by their schools too. All emboldened by a cult leader who tells them hatred is not only OK, but is virtue.

(20,572 posts)the school will probably not do much. I would love to see that little shit be required to apologize publicly - all news channels - with his parents by his side. The rest of them should line up and apologize one by one.
But that is still not enough.

"It's terrible that our march calling for the subjugation of women was marred by this racism thing. We don't know how that happened!"

Listening to that ancient and wise elder made me want to weep, I'm so disgusted at what our society has become.
My son must rise amidst this filth.

What if there hadn't been a camera? Well actually think about the days before we had cameras. Stuff like this happened every day. There were no cameras. Nor 24 hour news cycle. Nor internet outrage via social media.
But as for apologies, no way it should be accepted. That kid and everyone else in the video knew exactly what they were doing.
People like this kid feel emboldened because the person in the White is not only a racist, but surrounds himself with racists. Furthermore he never has to answer for any of the stuff he does. Nor do they thing they should have to answer for it. Because they don't think there is anything to answer for. They are certain that this type of behavior is normal and are validated every day by the president.
