Here's an important lesson to take away from all this. If you are going to wear any MAGA gear in public, expect that leftists will try to set you up in staged situations where you come out looking racist as hell. They can't just walk up and punch you in the face like they used to do. This makes them look bad so they've had to change tactics. These "racist Trump supporter" events will be filmed and put on the internet where they'll immediately go viral. Your career, reputation, friendships, and the safety of your family will be at risk. If you are young, your opportunity to attend college will be in jeopardy.

This event was totally staged to provoke the exact outrage it did and these kids had no idea they were being played. It was defused only because additional footage surfaced that showed the whole story.

A MAGA ball cap and vigilant situational awareness need to go hand in hand.

Sigh. All the things I hate about being in Washington DC.

Freedom of speech means we have to put up with racist pieces of crap like those in the linked video.

A very dignified , controlled and respectful statement. After watching even just the shortened, anti-student video which has been shown, I could tell that the narrative that these students were somehow at fault was a lie. This boy’s account is much more in line with what I have seen, and puts the incident in perspective of the entire event. Bravo for this young man!

It is called “bird-dogging” by the Left. I got ‘bird dogged” at a rally for Sarah Palin back in 2008 in Boston.

I had a guy in my face, literally inches away, trying to provoke me. I just kept saying calmly “I am not interested in talking to you. Get out of my way.” And there were a whole bunch of his friends standing off the side recording.

Finally, everyone around me told the guy to bug off because it was clear I didn’t want to engage with him.

I so would have enjoyed pummeling the jackass, but... I was carrying, so...you have to swallow your emotion and be the responsible one.

Anyway, these kids shouldn’t have been involved in this kind of thing...there should have been an adult somewhere. I know they were there for a right to life thing, which I admire, but interacting with these people takes a degree of maturity to keep from having it be violent or embarrassing.

While I appreciate they were mature enough to be at a right to life rally, 16 year old boys can be remarkably unconnected to the nuances of the situation at hand, and are vulnerable to people who would have no qualms about setting them up or hitting them below the belt.

I watched the whole video. The black Israelites were racist. The called the boys incest babies and crackers.they referred to the black students as Nigg#rs.Used the words faggots, dykes. Told boys Jesus was black and one of the boys said it does matter.

“This event was staged to provoke the exact outrage it did...”

The outrage was there to begin with. This incident was staged to express it, and to give others who felt that way an excuse to over-react and misbehave. The students from the Catholic school were being hated and confronted because they dared to be pro-life, pro-Trump, pro-USA, and to show their feelings in public. Their reaction to being targeted in this way is a model of public political behavior: keep your cool; don’t be intimidated into shutting up, nor provoked into saying or doing anything you had not originally intended to express. They acted more like adults that the American Indian ‘elder’ who invaded their space, confronted them physically, and misbehaved in a quite childish manner.

The boys were remarkably well behaved. I have seen these black Israelites before and avoid them. Very angry bunch. I also think the leader thought boys were oldercollege age as talked about losing their scholarships. where were the chaperones?should have gotten kids out of there.

Thank you!
I just sent this to the Nashville mews station I blasted earlier this evening for their BS report on this. They demonized those kids.

They owe them an apology - publicly - but I don’t expect them to do it.

The teens were completely innocent.

Innocent of what? Smiling? What were they being charged with? Hurting someone's feelings? I feel like I'm in Bizarro World where leftists are applauded for smashing people's heads in with bike locks and conservatives get death threats for smiling. I am tired of this game.

OK, I have a question: if Nathan Phillips is a "Vietnam Veteran", how can he 64 years old? By my math, he would have been born in 1955, which would have made him 10 when the war got going and 17 when our troops were being taken out of the war.

He was also a Marine, according to the press, yet I can't find an proof that he was - and we weren't taking 17 year olds.

I think this guy is a phony - in more ways than one.

Good point. Can someone check up on this? The whole drama was a polished fraud.

A MAGA ball cap and vigilant situational awareness need to go hand in hand.
_______________
Yet, we are told not to be judgemental when young women wear provocative clothing and some male gets the sexually available message.

The left seems to be able to wear politically inflammatory messages on their shirts with no consequence.

It was, in this instance, the leftist provocateur who violated the young man’s personal space, drummed loudly in his ears, risking damage to the boy’s hearing, while a group of politically privileged blacks provided a flanking action with personal, derogatory, incendiary comments aimed at both white and black students.

I won’t hold my breath until these actions are called out for the attempts to incite that they clearly are. However,this taunting over a simple political statement to make our nation great as it once was was all a D legislator thought he needed to demand a law suppressing the passive political free speech of teens.

Where does this stand on the intersectional spectrum?

Can we make #NoVictimShaming trend?
