Gblock wants to take the word of one side, instead of actually watching the video evidence that proves the narrative to be false.  

Imagine being so desperate, where you legitimately hope these kids to are racist LOL.  

Try watching the actual videos http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=59696&fbclid=IwAR2UPwjpy_hyMqlDiSikislEd3JBMvbXxqFiQghANBxCaTFFuvaqr8pYtg4.

Lol wut? I didn’t say a word about those kids. As a teacher this would have never happened on my watch. No adult would get close to my students and my students would have been herded away. End of story. I’m just saying this Indian guy isn’t hired by soros or walking around looking

You have CC who always says stupid shit (nobody else is banging the soros drum) and the rest of us who are referring to actual video evidence.  You choose to ignore everything and provide us quotes from the guy trying to be a victim.  Either you don't want to know the truth, or you can't comprehend it.

My wife watched a large portion of an hour long video today. Claiming that the kids were harassing the Black Israelites is an absolute joke. Those guys were clearly harassing the kids, attempting to instigate some shit. I heard them calling out the few black kids in the group, claiming the white kids were going to kill them. I heard a few gay slurs, as well as claims that the white kids were gonna be school shooters. The media handling of this has been absolutely ridiculous, and the calls for billing l violence against and doxing of these kids are pathetic.

People and groups still trying to dox these kids:

Even if the kids were 100% to blame, this is disgusting.

Good article on the whole thing. If nothing else the Phillips fellow is full of shit. Wonder when the media will apologize or when they call out the black people that were using racist and homophobic slurs? Won’t hold my breath. So in two days we have buzzfeed straight making stuff up and now this debacle that was completely wrong. And people like Boogie just call it “bias” when in fact it is either complete ignorance or blatant lying to the public. Either way, they have Trump this shit on a silver platter and deserve all the ridicule they get.

I watched the same video.  Those black dudes are racists that have perverted Judaism to suit their hatred for whitey.  I did learn a new term "Uncle Tomahawk".  I don't often take the time to watch such a long video.  But I continued to watch because I found it fascinating how the media can totally twist an incident.  All you need is a short video of a shitty smirk from a 16yr old kid and a native American Vietnam war veteran and the real racist are never known.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of teenagers wearing MAGA hats until we can figure out what is going on. They seem to be poisoning young minds. [1/2]

The conduct we saw in this video is beyond appalling, but it didn’t happen in a vacuum. This is a direct result of the racist hatred displayed daily by the President of the United States who, sadly, some mistake for a role model. [2/2]

Which is more sad?  The fact an elected public servant wants to take away first amendment rights or the fact people responding to this think it is a good idea?

As a teacher this would have never happened on my watch. No adult would get close to my students and my students would have been herded away. End of story. 

And as a former teacher who has chaperoned many field trips........this is exactly what I would say about the situation.

I'm having a problem with the time mentioned by the kid in his statement to the media.  They were to meet the buses at 5:30.  The videos show daylight.  At first I was thinking AM?  No, DC sunrise is around 7:30.  Sunset is around 5:15.  So these kids arrived early and were unchaperoned?  I'm trying to wrap my head around no adult supervision for the students. Does anyone have an explanation for this? 

It is unacceptable to me that as long as that video runs, I see no adult in charge.  A chaperone would have saved those kids from becoming headlines for the national media to rip into.

And also: Phillips was walking from there to Arlington in the dark?

edit: I just read iclfan2's link and here's what I like about it:

"Unless other information emerges, the school's best move would be to have a conversation with the boys about the incident, perhaps discuss some strategies for remaining on perfect behavior at highly charged political rallies—where everybody is recording everything on a cell phone—and let that be the end of it.

The boys are undoubtedly owed an apology from the numerous people who joined this social media pile-on. This is shaping up to be one of the biggest major media misfires in quite some time."

He said the group of boys were taunting some black Israelites that were part of another group and he intervened to stop potential violen

that is BS from the hour long video from those black guys that stood there all day agitating.

And yet they can't provide video of taunting.

They also can't provide video of them chanting "build the wall."

I also highly doubt they were walking to Arlington from Lincoln memorial.  

 

 

this.  They were technically walking in the wrong direction.  the bridge across the river was in the opposite direction.  Besides, the walk between the Vietnam memorial and Arlington doesnt require the steps of the Lincoln Memorial

I think you missed my poin about media bias. I don’t equate lying to bias. My point had nothing to do with that anyway. I was saying that people tend to see the media being biased against whatever side they inhabit.

Perhaps, but what's important that in two days, they got two stories completely wrong.

I missed this whole thing over the weekend. I just saw the initial video and the smug look, but thought, ok the kid looks like a jerk so what? 

I'm not surprised how it quickly became the typical arguments and scapegoats for some people. I just hope if this kid is correct, his life is not ruined by it.

I wasn't going to touch that game.  Even without Kupp, the Rams had too much firepower for me to be confident.

I did, however, pick the Pats to win.
