Captain America says that MAGA isn't cool... Gotta love the irony there.... Too bad the MAGA crowd is too stupid to realize this...

That video will stay. Everyone of those boys with the MAGA hats should be rejected for every college application they fill out. If that was my kid I would be severely disgusted.

I mean those smirks and all the laughing really convey fear! Just some good ole boys wearing MAGA hats to protest women having rights over their body.

Full video is now out there...funny, media running with a narrative that doesn't show the whole picture. Won't defend the snot-kids, but there are others to blame here, also. And they ain't white conservatives.

There are bad people on both sides of Charlottesville.

There are bad people on both sides of Charlottesville.

This would be a correct assessment. CNN (!!) showed the full video, and while the response of the snot-kids was the wrong response, they were not the instigators.
 
Statement from the teen in the video. And now there are rumors of lawsuits:

Oh, I'm convinced then.

Come on. It is true that this kid didn't do anything. He stood there. But to buy into the whole "We're the victims" crap is just ludicrous. The man, Nathan Phillips, even said in an interview that he approached them. It was in response to the crap they were spewing about the national mall.

Just waiting for a bus. Just singing school songs. I can smell the bull**** from here.

I am not defending the kid. Actually doing nothing was the wrong approach on his part. Offer a handshake to the drummer, or something. Just standing there smiling is too ambiguous.

So, their understanding of the Gospel is concrete then.

I think the whole video makes the kids look worse. Taking their shirts off, etc.
good thing their daddies hired a PR firm

Hey whatever happened to "take responsibility for your own actions?" Maybe these MAGA idiots should accept it and own it.

*edit* Apparently he has. Good for him.

*edit2* Has this kid never seen the movie "Get Out?"
They also taunted an African American student from my school by telling him that we would "harvest his organs." I have no idea what that insult means, but it was startling to hear.

Re: Nice Planet 15: I Knew It, I'm Surrounded By...

Those kids made bad choices. IMO
1. Walk away from the instigators.
2. Stand BY the Native Americans. Don't stand in front of him without performing any action, like an offering of a handshake, or saying, "hey, we're WITH you, not against you."
3. Actively rail against the instigators.

They chose option 3, the worst choice. So even IF they were "innocent" they made choices that did not reflect that. They are not necessarily the devils that the media gleamed from the short video, but they are FAR from the angels they claim to be.

Supposedly women are now publishing videos of those boys harassing them. If true, I’ll just quote Denny Green- “they are who we thought they were.”

Trump is now defending the boys, they’ll be at the White House within the week

I don't buy the "school's songs" take at all. Not one bit. I don't think they were out to harass, but they certainly weren't out to de-escalate.

They had what, an hour?, according to the statement before they left? Let. It. Go. Don't get involved.
 
Re: Nice Planet 15: I Knew It, I'm Surrounded By...

I think the MAGA hats already confirmed that part.
