@heelmanwilm any new thoughts about the video? Thought you might want to revise your official position
I can see lots of things inappropriate in this video. But I will start with the obvious, the kids are quite literally mocking this NATIVE AMERICAN. You guys know the people who actually should have the right to say whether or not we build the wall (the wall arguement is for another day) second as you pan around students begin cracking their knuckles in a fist like motion, stretching their necks as if they are loosening up for a fight. This is an intimidation tactic. Any cop worth his/her salt recognizes tensed up muscles, knuckle cracking, and neck loosening as signs that it's getting ready to go down. Lastly notice the kid standing squarely in front of the elderly man, pretty much challenging him... that's so sad, to me the saddest part; no matter what an oeder person does they are elderly and at the least the age should be respected not taunted
The great wall debate. As some one of latino/black ethnicity I say build the wall with permission from the indigenous natives of this land. I say this because in my state NC illegal aliens have DL they get Medicaid, foodstamps, welfare checks, grants for business we do not qualify for, because we were born in America.... say what now? A lot of them speak English yet refuse to instead talking Spanish often times about you, or I. When caught (I speak fluent spanish) they sheepishly turn the convo to English. At my kids schools they are made to learn Spanish; from the time they are in school until the time they leave it's all Spanish. In my house they were already leaning Spanish, but shouldn't that be a choice? I dont go to Mexico and demand everyone speak English to me; nor do I visit my family in PR and demand English of them... Illegal immigrants work cheaper (they do work hard) but so do americans... because they work so much cheaper Americans often times dont get the job they should get instead the construction job or farm hand job goes to the illegal who is sending the money home to his native country;it's not even being spent here. If you can stop just 60,000 a yr from crossing illegally it would tremendously aid the job market and in the long term.make for a healthier more sustainable country. I do think that some of the immigrant laws need to change it is way to hard, to get s green card here or become a citizen here once you are here. But nothing is perfect anyway that's my stance.
Same video that is already on here just try and watch with a cops eye look at body language not just here voices... look at facial expressions, check how tense some of these students get, check how they taunt him by mocking his native songs then comes the knuckle cracking, and neck stretching... lastly the check the arrogant kid who absolutely refuses to move and just stands there trying to intimidate the poor old man into quitting, or maybe even physically attacking so he can feel justifed when he hits and elderly person. Not sure he even realizes no matter if the old man hits first or not it won't end well for him if he strikes someone that old.
As i said I feel the entire video is an accurate representation of the political climate today. So no. Nothing in the entire video justifies the taunting. If the students were taunted by another group earlier as claimed by them that wasnt justified either and would also be an accurate representation of the political climate today. Nothing in the video justifies the behavior of the students towards the veteran. Its despicable.
What behavior are you talking about? Give me the link to the video and the time which it occurs.
Because all I saw was the native american guy walk up and start beating a drum in the kid's face while people behind the native american taunted the kids.
I’ll also say that i’ve been a chaperone on church youth groups to attend pro life rallies in DC twice. We would have never allowed the kids to be in the situation to begin with (and we were taunted severa times and did perfectly fine ignoring it) and if for some reason the kids did get into a “face off” we, the adults, would have defused it. I would have pulled the kid back, told everyone to stfu and move on.

That's not helpful. You got a link and a time on the video or have you just been trolling?
Theres no helping you. Lol. But fwiw @truetarheelraider0806 ‘s take is accurate. And If want to troll i’ll dress up rich christian white kids in maga gear and cruise the national mall.
This is the video I watched. From the beginning thebtaunting is going from the beginning the mockery of another persons ethnicity is going. At the about the 2:07 mark you see the knuckle popping and neck stretching starting. The kids are feeding off each other looking for one person to make a move and it was sad
Great. So no video and link then. Other than the video you claim to have watched where something nefarious supposedly happened. But that video can't actually be linked.
Seems legit.
Interesting. Now watch this one, which starts at the beginning, and tell me if your opinion is the same and if so, why.
Actually multiple videos exist. I'm just trying to figure out if you got hooked by the libs with the partial video or if you watched the whole thing. After our recent exchange, I'm pretty sure that not only did you get hooked, but also gaffed and pulled onto the boat.
It's clear to me after watching both videos the adults from the group that approached the kids attempted to escalate a non-situation. I hold voting age adults to a higher standard than high school children.
I said numerous the “entire video”. Which to me would imply the whole thing. But thats just me. And also as already stated @truetarheelraider0806 has accurately portrayed the bwhavior i have a prob with.
So we got a bunch of kids hanging out on the sidewalk waiting for their bus and singing their school song and this guy comes over and gets in their face and its the kids fault.
TDS is causing you to lose your mind. Please seek help.
So you thought it was perfectly acceptable for him to walk over to the kids and start a confrontation?
TDS has already sucked your brain dry of any objectivity and reason. Dont bother seeking help. Too late.
Once again i defer to truetarheels take on the kids reaction to the red devil walking up to them and threatening them with his war drum.
Sorry but when u posted “all i saw was an indian banging his drum....” i immediately detached from attempting any reasonable discourse.
that's really not what I said but again, congrats on taking over for BillyL.
Red devils, heathens, they need jesus and god put those missionaries in his path to save his soul. So sad to see him reject their love and the gospel. But they are savages.
Well if you’re confused over what i was referring to it was this:
“Because all I saw was the native american guy walk up and start beating a drum in the kid's face while people behind the native american taunted the kids.”
Thats when i knew any objective reason was worthless. You billy just as much as billy ever billied.
Actually based off what you said I see nothing wrong. I saw an old man walk up not threateningly now the guy doing the commentary is an idiot and needs to shut up. It is what happened after he walked up PEACEFULLY... So my opinion hasn't changed. Now I'd you have a different angle that shows his side acting like the other my opinion will change. Do you have video angle?

Here's the link from CNN of all places pretty much confirming what I have said. https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/21/us/maga-hat-teens-native-american-second-video/index.html
I wouldn't expect y'all to read this though. That would get in the way of the narrative.

You aren't up to having a serious conversation. At first I didn't detect your sarcasm. I get it now. Nice troll.
That was rude how about allow us to see it first before you make snide remarks
Listen, I know we want to keep this a place where we can say what we want but that's just over the line.
So the adults running commentary in the video; they get a pass for getting the mob formed? They weren't really a part of it or what? The one kid cracking his knuckles is the real aggressor? The adult raising his drum and mallet up within a few inches of a kid standing with his hands behind his back; he's all good too?
Clearly the adults escalated this one. We can debate whether or not some kids acted disrespectfully to a confrontational mob of adults, but there's no debate how it got started and how it continued.
Here's a guy who tried to objectively summarize the story, and has more footage compiled than I had seen before. He has a lot of different angles and some interesting footage of one of the Native Americans saying some pretty hateful, prejudiced stuff.
I did let you see it. I gave you the video link. Twice. Y'all said nothing to see here and that MAGA was wrong again, when in fact, its the same story of outrage over made up bullshit and then 48 hours later having to walk back the bullshit allegations.
