(602 posts)Assholes or not, they are minors and should not be doxxed.
Dox and shame their parents instead, they are the ones responsible for these monsters' behavior.

(16,162 posts)Identifying the main perpetrator in this case is understandable, but the whole roster of all of them at the event is wrong if they are minors.
Maybe it would create peer pressure and community self reflection. I doubt it.
But I do think it could reflect badly on DU.

(6,543 posts)Dean of Discipline and Current Event Issues, Sociology, Dean of Academics and Assistant Principal, AND Dean of Students and Assistant Principle? Looks like the sensitivity training needs to start at the top of the employee list at CovCath. "Sensitivity training is the process of developing emotional intelligence, which means "the mental ability an individual possesses enabling him or her to be sensitive and understanding to the emotions of others as well as being able to manage their own emotions and impulses"."

The kids shouldnt be accused indiscriminately.

(3,622 posts)That their silence constituted tacit agreement.
They should have walked away and refused to be associated with the activity.
Just my $.02
Blue_true
(31,261 posts)Look at their reactions and compare that to the lone kid that refused to do a Nazi salute a few months back, the latter showed real morality, the Kentucky kids showed unthinking mob mentality when facing someone they perceived as being weaker.

And the corporate sponsors of the school:
Link to tweet
Let's tread carefully when talking about minors, shitheels though they definitely are. But the adults and the school are fair game. Make sure they lose their sponsors. Make sure their reputation is destroyed, and all the teachers encounter problems if they apply for new jobs with Covington on their resumes. Make sure the diocese gets their deserved shit hitting the fan and spraying all over them.
pazzyanne
(6,543 posts)My questions are: Where were the adult chaperones when this was going on, and why were they allowed to insert themselves into the Indigenous Peoples March? Most school field trips I have been involved in have some pretty cut and dried rules for the chaperones and for the students on these field trips.
I rarely think about the financial aspect of these types of events, but, yes, corporate sponsers need to get involved as well.

(32,641 posts)Just like the high school, they share the blame.
Focus on the Family
American Bishops
and others share the blame for THEIR march. Lets look at a Boycott of all involved with organizing the March and hold them responsible.

(4,835 posts)DC Has lots of these Marches - And - I'd be more interested in how these groups came to think this was a great idea.
I find it pretty odd that a Boys Catholic School would attend a "March for Life" - not saying they can't - but seems a bit off.
Seems certain there were groups with disparate beliefs on the mall this day - how did they all come to be there.
Like - looking at this with 20/20 hindsight - "What could go wrong...!?"

Squinch
(50,918 posts)Apparently these 5 guys identify themselves as the "black israelites."
The usual suspects here are "whatabouting" all over themselves, saying the 5 guys exercising their right to free speech, however ignorant and hateful that speech may have been, drove the 50 Hitler Youth to surround Mr. Phillips, block his escape, taunt and mock and torment him.
The usual bullshit.
ismnotwasm
(41,967 posts)Saw the videos, gave the kids as much leeway as I thought appropriate, and they still come racist little shits just ecstatic to cause some trouble. March for Life is disgusting misogynistic bullshit straight from the beginning. Pretending to be triggered by less than a handful of half crazy black men, and then turning mob rule on Native Americans is peak whiteness.
