    When did the young man taunt the old man? I missed that part of this. What did he say? What did you think about the Black Israelites calling the black youth the N-word?

    Well it's being reported that he's a Vietnam vet although it's looking like he never served in Vietnam. If true than it's just another thing the media got wrong. And people wonder why we don't trust them.

    yes, the dems should not of compromised with conservatives, agree - but that is another topic

    "Obama, GOP's Snowe work on health care compromise"

    http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/02/health.care.compromise/

    "The compromise plan would lack a government-run public health insurance option favored by Obama, but would leave the door open to adding that provision down the road under an idea proposed by Snowe, the sources said."

    How many Republicans voted for Obama's healthcare law?

    that is my point, Obama comprised with conservatives and none voted for it, he should of just went with what he wanted from the get go, not even tried to work with conservatives as it was pointless

    He didn't compromise with the GOP...the GOP did not support Obamacare at all...they saw it's massive flaws and attempted to warn the American people....the left just lied repeatedly about it...."if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor" "you'll save $2500" etc etc....

    Some posters are dumber than rocks so it is a waste of time interacting with them. They have access to the full video showing what happened and they still want to believe the lie that the lying reporters and Phillips told. Phillips did confess when the truth came out but they like the lie better because it fits into their agenda. They would make good members of a lynch mob.

    For example, tommyhawk chops. There was some whooping, too.

    I think it's reasonable to acknowledge what we can see with our own eyes, but it's fair to say there was very little of it and most students expressed no racism or even hostility. In short, the kids acted like kids, not hostile bigots ganging up on minorities.

    For the record: Please note that I never said it has happened. I said it is happening.

    The subject of this thread provides some evidence.

    I went and did some research. As it turns out, there is no agreed upon fixed date for when discrimination against "white" people became legal and institutionalized.

    It's probably an extreme view to propose The Civil Rights Act of 1964 as the actual beginning of discrimination against "whites", but that is when the idea of "affirmative action" first appeared in law.

    At that time, however, it was only to be used as a remedy against those found in violation of the act.

    As the idea became more entrenched, we gradually arrived where we are today. It is now accepted that "white" males are to be placed at the bottom of any pecking order.

    Why don't you watch the entire video and then you will get your answers?

    I don’t know. I don’t think standing in front of someone and looking at them alone is considered racist. The student didn’t approach the elder. The elder approached the student and drummed directly in front of him did several minutes. That shows quite a significant level of restraint.

    Too much uncollaborated evidence coming from all sides to know who’s in the fault, of anybody. Was there a group of African American men mocking the students before the video was shot? I don’t know, but from Phillip’s story, that seems to be the case.

    I think the students are being unfairly targeted in a situation in which the Internet has allowed misinformed individuals to post comments before the full story has emerged, leading to vast amounts of misinformation to be spread around quickly.

    Fair enough, but the point is to challenge them. It would be a huge step for some folks to admit, to themselves at least, that some leftwing protests are an attempt to provoke otherwise peaceful people.

    Where was the busy-body when the obnoxious Black Hebrew Israelites were attacking the Indians?

    You need to get caught up on what actually happened, maybe you have by the time I've posted this. The only bigotry displayed was by the middle aged Indians and young adult Black Hebrew Israelites. The MAGA kids displayed exactly -0- bigotry in dozens of videos and angles on this.

    @thread Again, as posted prior, LW Complex, if you are so vapid, so world-historically stupid, to try to gin up a fake outrage based on edited video... in front of THE LINCOLN MEMORIAL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY... in 2019 where everyone in the world has a camera in their hands, you deserve exactly what you get.

    No more Goldwater-Daisy manipulation for you, that's turning counterproductive in a hurry. Find new ways to lie to the public, you are practiced experts at it, so am sure you will.

    I am always confused by this sort of post.

    Is it an example of flamebaiting, or trolling?

    Riiiiight. The racist remarks were coming from the handful of black Israelites and so Pocahontas marches into the crowd of white kids beating his drum in their face to defuse the situation. Nonsense

    BINGO. Period. Who the hell attacks high school students behaving themselves as we hope they will?

    As a long time high school teacher, I'm upset with the educators who put those kids in a situation where they should have been given the skills to deal with being provoked. When you put kids out front for causes you support without street proofing them, you're exploiting them and violating the trust their parents put in you.

    FAKE NEWS BY LEFTISTS..... AGAIN!

    1. The kids approached and surrounded the native man - TRUTH: He walked between all of them
    2. The natives in the story were completely innocent actors - TRUTH: A native man walking with the elder was throwing racial abuse at the high school students.
    3. The black Israelite element was ignored or de-emphasized in the initial report. In some reports the kids were actually in the wrong and were the ones harassing the black Israelite's - TRUTH: The high school kids had full-grown adults shouting racial abuse at them for 30 minutes before the event in the video unfolded. The kids tried to defend their classmates from homophobic and racial slurs by drowning out the language with their school chant
    4. The kids trapped and threatened the native elder - TRUTH: The elder voluntarily positioned himself between them. The kids made no attempts to trap him. He was free to leave at any time.
    5. The kids were yelling racial abuse and chanting "build that wall" TRUTH: No evidence of this despite the full video being released as well as numerous other videos of the incident.
    6. The smiling kid approached and mocked the native Truth: The smiling kid was standing in the same spot the whole time and the native approached him, invaded his personal body space, and banged a drum in his face. He smiled awkwardly at the situation.
    7. The kids had no legitimate reason to be there Truth: They were waiting for their bus after a school trip.
