Native American elder Nathan Phillips, in his own words

Native American elder Nathan Phillips, who has made headlines everywhere after a video showed him in a face-off with a Catholic school student in front of the Lincoln Memorial, spoke at length with CNN the day after the incident. Phillips described what he felt was hatred coming from the young people in the crowd, who are pupils at Covington Catholic School in Kentucky and who had traveled to the nation's capital to attend the March for Life rally, also held Friday. The interview was conducted Saturday after the video went viral. Since the interview, the diocese in charge of the school has denounced the students' actions, a lawmaker has defended them and the boy in the video, Nick Sandmann, has denied characterizations of his and his classmates' behavior and said he was simply standing in front of Phillips to let him know he wouldn't be baited into an altercation.

Speechless, I'm absolutely speechless at the flat out blatant lying by this "Indian" and CNN promoting it as fact. How is this freedom of the press? This is blatant hardcore defamation on a world wide level of a kid who did absolutely NOTHING wrong. And this "Nathan Phillips" is a "Native American elder"?? Of what tribe? Why is all his teeth gone? Has he got a drug problem? For all we know this guy could be like Iron eyes Cody, a Sicilian making pretend he's Indian. And what real vet calls themselves a "Vietnam era vet"??

These presstittues are sick in the head. Very disturbing to read their propaganda. They are inciting violence without a doubt.

He’s a horrible human being. Threatening a young kid. That should be what the media went with. But it’s fake news.

Isn’t ‘Viet Nam Era Vet’ what they say when they didn’t see combat, and often weren’t even out of the US?

We live in a post-truth world.

Things are going to get very interesting.

Unfortunately.

He had another incident in 2015 that made the news.

My feelings on it...he’s a very big fabricator and attention seeker. For what purpose that benefits him personally? I do not know.

The guy is a leftist scam artist. He most likely is not a combat veteran, probably not a veteran of any service at all, and might not be a native American. I spent 25 years on the streets dealing with people who looked just like him. They were almost all drug abusers, alcoholics, and mental cases who hardly ever uttered a truthful word.

CNN is doubling down on their fake news. Lets hope, when the indisputable truth comes out, the retribution is twice as severe.

I’m surprised the left isn’t featuring Nathan Phillips in a commercial where he is wearing ceremonial headdress and shedding a tear. Oh, it’s coming.

I made a mistake, I watched it again and he called himself “A Vietnam time vet”. First time I ever heard any veteran use “time” in describing their service.

There is no way I see hatred in those kids. They are chanting their school chant, hopping up and down, laughing, and have smiles on their faces.

Contrast these kids to the ones who the MSM socialist liberal media always makes excuses for when they are rioting, stealing, and attacking innocent people, (ANTIFA).

U.S. law (38 USC § 101, Definitions, line 29), which for purposes of benefits defines the “Vietnam era” as being

(a) February 28, 1961 to May 7, 1975 (for veterans who served in the Republic of Vietnam during that period) or

(b) August 5, 1964 to May 7, 1975 (for veterans who served outside the Republic of Vietnam during that period).

How far down have we gone when a guy gets his feelings hurt and it is front page national news for a week?

And for getting his feelings hurt, well known adults want kids thrown through a woodchipper and to have the school shot up and any kid wearing a MAGA hat needs to be taken out.

Unbelievable.

Probably the truth may never come out in the media.

Here’s a Wikipedia page they wasted no time in putting up...Can anyone confirm this info?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_Phillips_(activist)

‘Phillips joined the Marine Corps, serving in the Vietnam War as a Recon Ranger and Infantryman.He served in the U.S. military from 1972 to 1976’

Weren’t the Marines pulled out of Vietnam in ‘71??
