A Montana man has been charged with assault of a minor for allegedly slamming a 13-year-old boy to the ground for not removing his hat during the national anthem, according to reports.
Charles James Brockway, 39, was arrested Saturday evening at the Mineral County Fair and Rodeo in Superior, a small town in northwestern Montana, the Missoulian reported.
Taylor Hennick, a witness cited by the paper, said the national anthem had begun at the fairgrounds when she saw a boy, “lying on the ground.”
“He was bleeding out of his ears, seizing on the ground, just not coherent,” Hennick said.

People overreact and do dumb stuff every day. Most of the time, it’s not national news.
But if some redneck gets stupid and violent over the national anthem? Oh, stop the presses! Big story! Big, big story!
[spit]
Hope he whooped him good!
I might be inclined to grab his hat and hand it to him, but assault is out of the question.
Rethinking that...if someone grabs my MAGA hat and hands it to me, would I consider that an assault?
Read the article.
I suspect we’re going to hear a different version of this report.
Something doesn’t sound right here.
I may be wrong, but this doesn’t make a whole lot of sense as reported.
There isn’t any excuse for doing that to a kid, especially over a failed hat removal.
It seems a real stretch to think that was solely what was going on here.
Terrible! So sorry for the child and his family. There is no excuse for this criminal assault and battery on a child.
Brockway is acting exactly like an antifa.
High probability you’re right, given the source is mainstream media.
Now, the kid will not even stand for the anthem.
I sure hope you’re not being serious in celebrating the report of a grown man seriously beating up a child.
Already the lawyer for the dude said this morning that “he was only obeying an order from our commander in chief and felt he was ordered to assault the kid”.
Dude is a vet who suffered brain injury from a car accident.
So now anything and everything is going to be this sorry excuse “obeying an order from President”

Are you for real??? I’m the most anti-child out there but what this guy did was just insane!
If the “reported” injuries are correct, and if the boy recovers completely, Brockaway should get about 1 full year in jail to think about what an idiot he was/is. If it had been my 13year old boy, I would be in jail and Brockaway would likely be in the ground. Where was the boys dad?
I did but I just got is a hefty debate with some emotional bat about a pic of two sheriff’s on horses in Galveston walking a cuffed black guy on a leash. I’m waiting for the dust to settle as I have with that photo. There’s always some background agenda that makes these stories go viral. I’ll wait and see.
I think you forgot the sarcasm tag-or at least I hope you did.
Probably insane. And probably a killer sooner or later
[Probably insane. And probably a killer sooner or later]
No dount. THIS guy deserves to be red flagged!
Yes I did not add a sarc tag. *sigh* I thought my post was so inane people would catch it. Guess not
Oh yeah, well it is sounding more and more like a false flag Antifa event isn’t it.
