efore he encountered Omaha elder Nathan Phillips at the Lincoln Memorial, Covington High School student Nick Sandmann had already taken steps to provoke and insult people of color. He'd put on a MAGA hat.
Sandmann’s face went viral over the weekend when footage began circulating of him and his classmates at the Lincoln Memorial. The moment has become something of a political Rorschach test that also raises thorny questions about the way various perspectives become amplified and even weaponized on social media, sometimes without the benefit of important facts. Context is key; this is something both conservatives and liberals can agree on. But in this case, that context must include what the teens were wearing — and what that apparel has come to represent.

Your post hit it spot on.
What a bunch of leftist scumbags.
Lefties are still fighting this battle.
They just don’t know enough to put down the shovel.
I’ve got news for POCs, if you are provoked or insulted by someone wearing a MAGA hat, then you just well get used to being provoked or insulted.
Only an America-hating, racist anarchist could take exception to the phrase, “Make America Great Again.”
Don’t they know yet that Trump won the election?
How does a MAGA hat insult people of color. Why?
“How does a MAGA hat insult people of color. Why?”

It doesn’t-—never has,never will.
ANYTHING that the left doesn’t like is racist-——anything.
This was my favorite “racism” accusation
They have gone NUTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
The Left is trying to set the narrative that anyone standing up for America is a racist, after having spent decades to establish the narrative that white America is racist and that the only possible way to prove you are not racist is to call for the eradication of America.
Americans have been shoehorned into believing that professing “I am not racist” is the highest value and the only value.
It remains to be seen if Americans are stupid enough to believe and accept that.
As George W Bush famously said, racism is the worst thing in the world.
Anti-PDJT indoctrination by the swamp, especially the MSM.
After seeing the video of Nathan Phillips beating that drum in a child’s face then as I can say is that if I ever see Nathan Phillips on the street he’d better run or find someplace to hide. I would definitely give him a piece of my mind.
He is a brute, plain and simple.

Dec 20, 2018 ... Omaha. Tribal flag. Total population. 6,000.
I saw a post on Facebook that showed “symbols of oppression” by century: 19th, the rebel flag, 20th, the swastika, and 21st, the MAGA hat. I didn’t copy it as I was too disgusted but I suppose I should have for future reference.
MAGA hats, before they were cool.
I ordered 2 yesterday.
