Indigenous Marchers, Covington Catholic HS, and Black Israelites preachers = a buffet of media mess

I'm leaning toward mocking the Indian dude.
Not me. If you listen close the chant starts like the FSU war chant that they use. Then a couple of the kids start that tomahawk motion like they do at FSU. When moves away from the FSU chant, they quit doing it. Regardless, the activist was trying to provoke a reaction, primarily because of the MAGA hats. He was begging for something to use against them. He didn't get what he wanted so he made up something. The media hitched their horses to this dude and as it turns out he's nothing but a worthless fraud.
 
VinBham's take:

1. Black Israelites were by far the worst offenders. No defense for their behavior but in the end they were just shouting racist crap. No crime, just a-hole behavior.
2. Phillips and crew much less offensive than #1. Instigating the situation is on them - they didn't need to go get in the kids' faces and all but that happens at protests. Have a problem with Phillips claims that have been proven untrue so negative points for that.
3. Kids, the chanting and tomahawk were mocking otherwise I'm not seeing the problem.

Big pictures - Group 1 should receive virtually all of the condemnation for bad behavior.
Group 2; 2 minutes for instigating and thumbs down for running to the press with a false story.
Group 3; mocking uncalled for.

group 1: mostly adults
group 2: adults
group 3: kids

I still hold kids to a lesser standard than adults, and they were the best behaved. Props to them for even being politically involved.

I'm not very patient, if someone had come up to me and beat that drum in my face I would have shoved it up his ass.

Good post, 100% agree
 
When is the press no longer the press? The First Amendment guarantees a free press, but the press itself has a responsibility to use that privilege responsibly. When does agenda driven media cross the threshold from being actual press and become something different? Reporting like this is like screaming "fire" in a crowded theater. It's irresponsible and potentially dangerous. It doesn't represent the facts or portray the truth. It goes against the principles of journalistic integrity. The responsibility of the press is to provide the public with facts, not opinions. Somewhere that seems to have escaped us.

I'll shut up after this but NO group should be allowed to be near the White House, Lincoln Memorial, National Monument, etc. and able to yell this garbage. No little 6 year old needs to hear it when the parents are just wanting to show them these National icons.

They should move them to a certain place in the city so that families can enjoy their days touring. That hate church is moved a mile back from funerals at churches and gravesites, move these aholes so people can enjoy DC.
