Nathan Phillips: Native American Activist Accuses Nicholas Sandmann of Being 'Coached' for Today Sit-Down

A day after Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann sat down with Savannah Guthrie to defend that smirk-seen-’round-the-world, Native American activist Nathan Phillips appeared on NBC’s Today to share his version of what went down at that now-infamous March for Life event. . . .

. . . . On Thursday, Phillips was given equal time and alleged that he couldn’t have walked away — even if he wanted to — because he was blocked.

“That’s what I was trying to do. I was trying to walk away,” Phillips said. “We were surrounded. We couldn’t go right, we couldn’t go left… I took that first step and that crowd backed up; I took a second step and that crowd started scattering and breaking apart there; and I took a third [step] and saw a clear space and I said, ‘that’s the space,’ and we started going that way… [but] a person was there… I was blocked.”

When asked if he had a chance to see Guthrie’s sit-down with Sandmann, Phillips admitted that he didn’t watch it in full. “I was upset that I was made to sit down and watch it,” he said. “Someone tried to show it to me… and I got into the first 30-40 seconds of it, and I said that’s all I needed to hear.”

Phillips went on to accuse Sandmann of being “coached” for his interview and said that the student’s words lacked sincerity and a sense of responsibility.

That lying dog. He’ll soon be facing the judgment. You would think he would prepare for that accounting.

Ask his tribal elders in the Navaho Nation about this activist—they know his whole story and do not back up his actions.

Imagine a guy reading a paper 20 years ago at breakfast and saying "honey, you're not gonna believe this. Apparently a kid was sarcastic to an old Indian fake Vietnam vet!

It's crazy what the media considers news today.

It does seem as if the mainstream media doesn’t care about that.

Exactly, No media source has stumbled upon the idea that this young man was targeted and therefore the victim of a possible Hate Crime. I’d like to see Big Chief Nathan Phillips walk up into my face like that.

This Nathan Philips character has used up his 15 minutes and needs to go away.

He said that when discharged he was told to never wear his uniform again because he wouldn’t be liked. Stopped watching at that.

= = = = = = = = = = = = =

That sounds like a BCD or DD after having ALL his gear confiscated and being warned about trying to represent USMC in official gear...

Former Marines tend to (or at least used to) get upset when non-Marines wear their gear and once one gets ‘bad paper’ they tend to be shunned by the ‘community’.

He was also targeting Catholics during this March for Life weekend. He took his drum and tried to disrupt a Catholic mass.

That wasn’t allowed, so he faked a hate crime with Catholic high school students instead.

He’s a professional activist, and he needs events like this to stay relevant. That’s why he was at the pipeline protests two years ago.

He’s a political activist. He needs to be in the spotlight.

So, according to Chief Running Fridge, the kid’s big crimes are smiling and getting advice.
