Video? Haven’t seen that. |
| Wow, the boy grinned. What a monster. Good Lord. |
DP. Watch the TMZ video. It's very clear they were mocking and being a-holes. |
Oh please. He was not grinning because he was happy to see Phillips. |
I have watched a ton of videos and haven’t seen any chopping motions. It’d be great if you posted a video and put at what time the chops occurred. |
+1 So, we've gone from them being accused of yelling "build that wall" and making racist comments, to basically just standing and smirking. All the while, the real abuse and insults being hurled at Native Americans from the Black Hebrew Israelites was ignored. Why do you suppose that is? Because it doesn't fit the narrative. |
You understand grinning isn’t a hate crime, right? Or illegal. And sometimes is due to nervousness? If the extent of the horror perpetrated by this teenager is grinning it’s quite an overblown issue. |
Exactly. No one can post a single video of anything these boys are being accused of. |
He likely was uncomfortable when the guy walked right up to him. Most adults don't walk up to a teen and beat a drum in his face. You need to watch the full video--not the short clips. ABC ran a story on it tonight---how it may have been misrepresented. Jake Tapper has also walked it back on twitter. Sorry, it doesn't fit your narrative. |
+ 1 the tide of public opinion is turning. Except for those who count grinning occasionally as a hate crime and the ultimate disrespect one can show to some guy who gets in your face and beats a drum. |

Rightwing propaganda summed up in a sentence in this post.
“Forget about the indoctrinated white Christian kid spewing hate— it wasn’t his fault. It was the black people!!!!!”
|
Then he should've left. That was certainly not a kid who was uncomfortable. |
Tapper keeps posting different takes from others. He hasn't walked anything back. |
|
Jake Tapper has tweeted a response from the kid who has been, IMO, wrongly condemned. I will not post it here because he is identified.
Frankly, he sounds more mature than the media, celebrities, and posters here who have slandered and defamed this kid. |
Yes, I am sure he wrote that.
