The Parkland kids were the victims of a massive tragedy. EHy should they have been attacked.

I’m so concerned by the numbers acting like those Covington kids were innocent. They behaved atrociously and should have consequences from their school, their church and their parents. Instead they get interviews, crisis management firms and white people claiming they are angels.


So, approaching someone and playing a drum right into your face is not an insult? You are totally OK if someone invade your space that way and keep drumming into your face?


Just move aside when people are marching your way. It's not complicated, don't play chicken with protesters.

Do you want them acting aggressive toward the homeless who often walk your way and say crazy shit?

They don't own the steps of the Lincoln memorial. If other groups approach make room. It's not complicated.


Why should the Covington students move out of the way for Nathan Phillips. Watch the video. If he wanted to march up the steps there was plenty of space for him to easily have walked around the kids waiting for the bus. Just like the Covington students don't own the steps neither does Nathan Phillips. It's public space. He chose to walk into the crowd when he easily could have walked around them if he wasn't looking for an altercation.

The Covington students are under no obligation to disperse from a public area to accommodate a handful of professional dissidents when there is plenty of space available for them to go around. Besides, let's be honest for 1 second, that's not what Phillips wanted to begin with anyway.


It's thenlincoln memorial. It's not a stand your ground state.

People are walking through, be polite.

Nobody is obligated to have manners, you are right about that.

Didn't they tell the Covington teens to go back to Europe where they belong and also something about being white?
All the adults were rude.

Any video (that actually contains the audio) evidence of that? I didn't think so. Has this fiasco not taught you anything about the need to verify claims instead of just simply running with whatever story pushes the narrative that you want to believe?

Thank you. That is what was said. I hate gaslighting that is going on.

I agree.

My believe this forum reflects the PR push by the firm and classic trolling. Again, the still of Sandmann smirking really does tell the actual full truth. The rest of these 140 pages are noise and obfuscation.


You’re a nut job. A teenager smirked, and for that he was doxxed and got death threats. The reaction to the video is absolutely insane. It was appalling when the right went after the Parkland kids, and it’s appalling to see the left doing it to the Covington kids. You guys are flip sides of the same coin. Both are disgusting, and no one has to pay me to come here and say that.


Nobody supports death threats.

But the boys were being rude, racist and aggressive and there should be consequences.

Like I do for my kids, if you can't just admit it and apologize ... the punishment is doubled.


Lots on the left supported the death threats and threats of violence.


Both side have lunatic extremists, both of those groups are wrong.

The Covington community needs a reboot. The need to stop acting like Animal House. Their chant is embarrassing and aggressive. They need to learn not to make fun of other religions, other's prays, the tomahawk chop, the black face, cat calling girls.

They need a little more preparation for protesters that have the freedom to speak even when the speech is ugly... black isrealites, white supremists, West borough baptisms. Yes they have the freedom to speak too. As much as we all hate it:

All of it needs education and correction.


It’s not going to happen unless colleges start banning kids from these schools. They are privately funded after all.

It’s not what anyone involved wanted.

But here’s the big question- was it worth it? Was it worth the death threats and exposure?

There should be a huge lawsuit against the school for allowing this to happen. Field trip waiver or not.

Yep agree there. I don't know who gave the kids permission to do the chants but holy bad judgement, batman.

The problem is that once again the media took the narrative they wanted and ran with it, without researching even a little bit further. That is not journalism. That is editorializing.

Then the radical left took it another step further by doxing the kids, issuing death threats and threats of violence, calling for these kids lives to be ruined, their school to be shot up and more.

Had the media practiced even a little bit of high school level journalism, it never would have gotten to this point.

And as soon as they realized the original narrative was untrue, or shaped, they should have swiftly, repeatedly and boldly issued retractions and apologies.

But as Joy Behard so honestly stated, this is about the left using whatever means necessary to take down Trump, even if it means inflaming our country through false pretenses, even if it means ruining these kids lives over at best a misunderstanding or at worst, a set up and hoax. They are so eager to take down Trump that they do not care if a byproduct is one of their crazy fringe actually deciding to follow up with their violent threats and harming or killing one of these kids or their entire school.

That is vile.

Liberals, true liberals, need to start standing up forcefully to these leftist internet vipers. They are unleashing a level of crazy that they are soon not going to be able to control, and which will turn on them soon at the drop of a hat. You are already starting to see it happen on a small scale with liberals Chris Rock and Ellen. It will happen more and more, the more powerful the left allows their fringe element to become.


They are turning on Savannah Guthrie for simply being a journalist and doing her job.

You liberals are going to look back on the voice and power you gave to your fringe, and deeply regret it someday.


The fact that you only see this happening on the behalf of liberals and leftists shows how biased you are.

The right is just as culpable in this nonsense IF NOT MORE as the left. The right-wing crazy propaganda machine has been at it MUCH longer. When you start to answer for Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones and all the right-wing nutjobs who have made life hell for people like the parents of the children killed in Sandy Hook Elementary and the like, then we'll talk. Hell, when you take responsibility for Fox News and the constant spread of disinformation to push the right-wing agenda, then get back to me.

Until then, you can stuff your righteous anger, because you are JUST AS BAD.

Yes I agree it is vile to demonize children. All children. So spare us your faux outrage. You've never spoken up for the demonization of Michael Brown. For the demonization of Trayvon Martin. For the demonization of children torn from their parents' arms at the border and painted as MS-13 gang members. For the demonization of the Central Park 5 by none other than your president who wanted the state to kill them and then never apologized or changed his mind when their innocence was proven. Do you believe in sending children to adult prisons for the rest of their life? Do you speak out against such cases? I would wager you've never given it a thought, or don't really care to learn about such cases.

This is one of the reasons this story has gotten so many people riled up. Because people see how white kids get painted as choir boys despite being loud and obnoxious while black kids and immigrant kids get called adult thugs. White boys get put on the Supreme Court after a childhood of being obnoxious a-holes who have harrassed girls, because their childhood is protected in a way that the childhoods of black and brown children are not. You are blind if you deny that, no better than that guy in the post story living in his bubble where racial killings never happened in his hometown because he never heard about them.

It's telling that you refuse to admit these boys were not very good representatives of their Catholic faith when they acted so unruly at a National Memorial to a slain president. That doesn't demonize them to say that. It's not demonizing to say please don't look the other way with a blithe "boys will be boys" and give them a pass for their unruliness. It's not demonizing to say take a look at another group of white kids who stood in a circle and prayed quietly while being yelled at and then told the group of black Israelites they loved them before calmly walking away, and then advise those Convington boys "this is the ideal way to behave to show your Christian faith." That's not demonizing. That's teaching. You can't say these boys were in town because their religious faith and concern for the sanctity of all human life compelled them to demonstrate against abortion and then give them a pass for acting completely contrary to that faith with their obnoxiousness.

And no one will ever convince me that boy was praying when he stood unmoving with a smirk. So he lied about it. I believe that's a confessable sin.

Death threats are terrible and should be condemned, just as there should have been no death threats against Christine Blasey Ford or death threats against the Central Park 5 by Trump. I condemn the death threats against these boys. Did you condemn the death threats against Ford, who as of late fall still had a security detail because she still was receiving them?

You cannot look at this through anything but the racial and gendered issues that plague our nation. There is no ground zero on which to judge what's going on. Yes people are mad, because they are mad at the inequitable system that always gives such privileged boys a break while striking down boys of a different, less privileged racial-socio-economic status.



This is it in a nutshell. Everyone needs to stand down.

+100

A lot of us liberals are Christians too. And parents. And appalled.

These kids should have been protected. But they were allowed to go Lord of the Flies crazy in DC. It’s unacceptable.

But also- for all of the excuses that they are just kids- their lack of judgement is telling of the education that they are getting at this school. And a lack of parental responsibility.

Or lack thereof.

The kids will suffer for the stupidity of the parents. Let’s see how admissions look next year.

I wonder how many parents will take their kids out of this school. Should be interesting to see the fallout.

There was one kid arguing with the indian guy telling them to go back to europe. He said something about africa which I didn't pick up clearly. I think he meant we should all go back to africa because thats where we all originated from. Thats when sandman signaled for him to stop arguing.
