It was pretty angry - we will see

I saw yours and it is well done.

I will look forward to reading yours as well!

I've been exposed to kids like this. They're fucking assholes. Their helicopter parents are fucking assholes. All they are doing, is teaching their kids how to respond to public scorn for their asshole actions. Unfortunately, sometimes the PR works. Fuck every goddamn one of them. You better believe when they're home, out of the public eye...they are indeed smirking...

And kids like this learn very early on how to explain their actions in such a way as to create plausible deniability!

Way of their asshole kid.

They were there for the sole purpose of promoting male control of female bodies.
Teenagers bused in to demand adult women be subjected to forced child-bearing.
They weren't on a field trip to the Smithsonian."
(They were there to harass people they don't agree with).

I couldn't agree more. I watched ALL of the videos as well. This one really boiled my blood. The kid switching out his white hat for a MAGA hat gives it all away.

"I think there are a lot of very well-meaning people who have been hoodwinked by a clever right-wing spin machine!"

They are neither very well-meaning or hoodwinked.

. . . including even a friend of mine who is an ardent feminist.

They had MAGA hats and were having their lives turned upside down. Most on the right wanted to believe the media had it wrong so when their side produced some new videos and providing a new narrative, they ate it up b/c thats what they wanted the reality of the situation to be.

. . . and by falling all overthemselves to apologize for having run the original story, they are feeding into the right's ridiculous persecution complex.

... The boys were apparently provoked by four members of the Black Hebrew Israelites, who shouted racial slurs at them as they disembarked their bus.

The right is trying to claim that this somehow vindicates them in their harassment of the Native American man, because they boys were somehow "confused" as to who was whom. But watching the various videos, I see no confusion whatsoever. I see a group of rowdy boys who knew exactly what they were doing, and were enjoying every minute of it.

As I posted elsewhere, the extended video provides context but not a shred of exoneration — unless you share the particularly-white viewpoint that being harassed by members of one minority group entitles you to take it out on an uninvolved person from a completely-different minority group.

saying all media gets it wrong and tens of millions will believe him, calling the drum a "war drum" and mocking nathan phillips.....

in much of america limbaugh fills in the context

as in just now he praised the kids for doing nothing wrong and being model citizens, the kind of kids all americans should want their kids to be like - white

he says this with his mocking voice whenever he referred to nathan phillips - "ancient indian hero" etc

from a quick sonix.ai transcription

attacking 'liberal' media using a moking voice, pretending to be the 'liberal' media

: "Oh even if we got the original story wrong we can still see that this kid is a racist bigot white supremacist" ---- ----they've (media) got to do damage control somehow in the modern era. all this began with the Trayvon Martin story. That whole incident and it's just continued to descend.

everybody has seen the kid standing there and he's smiling as this scrawny aging an elderly Indian Vietnam War vet is pounding on his war drum and there were stories about how the kid was smirking and was a smart ass and was taunting and his real crime was that he was white and his second real crime was that he was wearing a Make America Great Again Red Cap

well these kids or models of composure they were models of restraint they were polite they were respectful they were everything that never Trumpers say Trump is, everything that we need in leadership and they're being thrown overboard and they're the ones who deserve the accolades and his whole encountered they're the ones who were well-mannered they're the ones we hope become future leaders in this country not this ragtag bunch of protesters surrounding him they were subjected I don't know how many people know this these teenagers were subjected to some of the most vile racist homophobic verbal abuse that you can imagine they were called the F word you know slang for homosexual they were called murderers they were clever it was said they are what's wrong with life you should have been aborted because they were on a pro-
and so on

These kids were the model of proper parenting. They behaved impeccably properly they were respectful.

: They were not confrontational. Everything they did was designed to lower the temperature of this entire thing. They didn't do one thing provocative and yet that's what the media is now trying to say oh that kid might not have done anything but look at his face.
