The mother of a boy filmed harassing a Native American man along with his friends at a rally in Washington DC has blamed black Muslims for the confrontation, without providing any evidence for the claim.
The teenager was among a group of students wearing Make America Great Again (Maga) hats who were criticised for taunting the musician Nathan Phillips, surrounding him and jeering and chanting build the wall, build the wall.
But his mother claimed black Muslims had been harassing the group of Donald Trump supporters from the private, all-male Covington Catholic High School in Kentucky.
In an email to the news website heavy.com the mother of a Covington Catholic student, believed to be the boy prominently featured in footage of the incident, wrote: Did you hear the names of the people were calling these boys? It was shameful. Did you witness the black Muslims yelling profanities and video taping to get something to further your narrative of hatred??
Did you know that this man came up to this one boy and drummed in his face?

(86,045 posts)from way back in my childhood who lived in our cul de sac. Her boys were brats and always screwing with the neighbors, we were not friends and my mom wouldn't let us play together. This is early sixties for time frame.
I remember I was on my way over to their next door neighbor's to get something for my mom and one of the boys was riding his bike on the sidewalk. In fact he rode right up and ran me over, the asshole! He was a few years older so it wasn't a little kid not in control of the bike. He did it on purpose because some of the neighbors considered me to be black due to my slight olive complexion.
And so the asshole drops his bike and runs in the house yelling for his mom, we were right out front of his house, and she calls the fucking cops! On me! And my mom had to argue with the cops about why I wasn't to blame, even after the kid said he ran me down and all of that. Those people weren't well liked on our street. We moved before they did.

(9,291 posts)he was recorded and he did none of these racists stuff.
I wouldn't have back him if he ever did something like what baby Maga did. He should be worried to come home if he did. Might put up the recording, but in today's world, I don't know if it's safe.
