| You guys keep mentioning respecting Phillips but I think he doesn’t deserve that much respect with all the racist drivel the people in his group were spouting as they stood behind him and recorded the video. The kids behaved well overall compared to them. |
STOP CALLOMG THOSE BLACK HATERS "JEWS." They are anti-Jews! |
lol nice try |
So if some antisemite yells a disgusting slur and I don't sit back quietly and take it, it's MY fault? You people are crazy. Forgiveness and excuses for everyone except white kids. |
The racist drivel was from an entirely different group, you twit. |
No base command has a leg to stand on if a dependent is accused of a crime and not convicted. Accusations don’t matter, you can’t send a dependent back if they are accused of a crime because they need to stay in country to face trial/charges/ sentencing depending on jurisdiction. It’s way more complicated than some kid shoplifting or fighting and then being frogmarched to a plane and banished from a base. You were a kid and saw things and drew conclusions from memory. That’s ok, but reality is different. |
Winner winner chicken dinner. |
Because they think they are more Jewish than other Jewish people? |
Here's a video where you can watch a longer interaction. The black Hebrews are definitely obnoxious and looking for an argument. But if you go to the 21:43 mark and watch for the next ten minutes you see some Non-Covington students conducting themselves much differently in their own interaction with this group - though I will point out that the boy who shouted out that rape comment is with this group (see around the 26 mark), which goes to show that an idiot boy can behave himself when properly chaperoned. I suggest that Covington school officials show this video to their studen for them to reflect on their behavior. And also to their chaperones -because you can clearly see a Covington chaperone in this video who does nothing to get the kids away. Really poor judgment. |
I know. This thread makes is so obvious, doesn't it? |
The Lincoln Memorial is a huge place. When there are crazy people yelling horrible things you don't engage with them. You move. Jesus never said go hate on people even if they are hating on you. These kids are from a school that seeks to instill Jesus's teachings in them. Hence the suggestion they turn the other cheek and walk away. Their chaperones should have moved them all along. A different group of youth came up and told the black Hebrews that they loved them. Then they walked away. |
My understanding as a kid was that the local government and the base command basically gave the families the options of facing local prosecution or leaving the country. No one was snuck out of the country, but the kids I knew who got in trouble (not talking about shoplifting or fighting) left really fast. I don't know anyone who stayed. Not having access to base housing was a big deal at the time/location where we were, so it would have been difficult for a family to keep a family member overseas who wasn't allowed to live on base. it sounds like all of this is very different now. (And I agree that this misbehavior is no where near the level of what it took to get someone sent back. ) |

Somehow the boys are being held to a higher standard of behavior than all the adults around them.
I still haven’t seen a single video with those boys cursing or using racial slurs. Phillips used racist language and is being held as the peacemakers. I lived in DC and saw kids of all colors and religions and socioeconomic tiers act worse than the kids on the video. I don’t know where all these parents posting on here are when their kids are in public in DC. being awful. Sitting home in dcum probably, typing about crap they are so smug and sure if while their kids are doing what those kids did or worse. |
That’s correct. Nothing those boys did on the video would get them sent back, banned from base, or have their mom or dad’s command called. |
According to DCUM, if people are yelling and calling your classmate/buddy the N word, you should NOT speak up. It’s hard to believe, but I guess liberals are saying you should NOT stand up to racist and hateful remarks unless you’re a liberal. |
