A portion will go on. 30 of the statements still kicked out. They are looking into 3 statements.

First amendment will win out.

He's now saying that WaPo's reporting that he blocked Phillip's way was defamatory.  Does that make any sense?  [/quote]

Yes, it does. A major newspaper lied about what they could clearly see on video.[/quote]

The video clearly shows that the boy stood in front of Phillips. Truth is a defense to defamation.  [/quote]

BS.  Phillips approaches the boy and stood in HIS way.  And the video shows exactly that.  Stop lying.

Phillips approached the group. The boy went to meet him. They stood in front of each other. Blocking each other's way would be one way to describe it.

What lie are you referring to? [/quote]

What a liar you are.  Here’s the video where it can plainly be seen that Phillips approaches the group of students, makes his way to the middle, winds up face yo face with Sandman where he loudly sings and bangs his drum in Sandman’s face.  Sandman doesn’t “walk to meet him”.  He merely stands exactly where he had been, the entire time.  And after about ten minutes of this, Sandman walks away.

The video is clearly narrated and the source is the NYT, so it will be interesting to see how you continue to try and spin it to suit your partisan narrative.

Watch this video - you can see that those boys were actively interacting with the NAs and that Sandmann chose to continue to stand there because he was mocking Phillips (especially after 2:00 mark)
