All that remains for the left (including carpe) to say is well, um, er, uh, I don't like the look on the one kid's face. It was a look of befuddled confusion but they desperately want to twist it into something evil. Truly sad. I mean, there is reason to complain that our present society has lost a great deal of civility and yet these kids displayed it in spades and they get demonized for it.Geislerminian Antinomian Kenotic Charispneumaticostal Gender Mutualist-Egalitarian.

And then you have moved on and I am yet to see you provide examples.

I have some experience with what the Washington Post (in particular) reports regarding the march in question. Suffice it to say, if there IS a negative angle, they WILL cover it; if not, silence appears to be their chosen option.Veritas vos Liberabit<>< Learn Greek <>< Look here for an Orthodox Church in America<><Ancient Faith Radio

Did we catch that the fringe group the Black hebrew israelites were taunting the boys and possibly the native american guys too? It looks like the fringe group was there JUST TO CREATE this incident. And worse they succeeded. I'd like to throw the cult into a dumpster!A happy family is but an earlier heaven.

ABC is one of the few MSM outlets talking about a "rush to judgment" wrt to the teens whereas most of the others (especially NBC) are still pushing the now discredited narrative of evil white racists provoking a confrontation. Over on CNN we can hear how it was all the fault of the MAGA hats and interestingly Twitter has (so far) refused to delete the incredibly vile threats made against the teens.

If you watch the video in your Washington Post article, both of them (the teen and the Indian) say they are trying to diffuse the situation in their own way. It seem they both had problems with the black Israelites. The teen says they were doing school chants to counter the black Israelites hurling insults at them ("incest babies" etc) and were not chanting anything about a wall.Last edited by Sparko; 01-22-2019, 08:58 AM.

You might need to open the link in a new private window to view it since WaPo will block your access to it's articles after a few free ones per month.

if followed to the end, will make us into devils. You see, one is beginning to wish that black was a little blacker. If we give that wish its head, later on we shall wish to see grey as black, and then to see white itself as black.
