Do not buy this boy's lawyered statement or his mama's excuses. Do not look desperately around for an excuse for this young man's or his classmates' behavior.

Watch. All. The. Videos.

[thread]
Here's one for you all to watch. Look at all the little mocking MAGAs. Do you see that white boy from the more notorious clip yet? No. At what point does he emerge from the crowd of his mocking MAGA friends to stand inches from the face of this elder?
Here's another. Watch the MAGAs bizarrely escalate instead of ignoring or moving their group a few extra yards away. See the elder w/his drum approach. Singling out no one. When does smirk boy decide to put himself within inches of this man with his drum? vimeo.com/312330750
Oh, here it is. The moment smirk boy appears on the scene. Notice how his friends have at this point backed up now. But he refuses to move. Chooses instead to stand there smirking his way into infamy. vimeo.com/312332730
And listen to the woman at 2:23 who points out these little punks are indeed acting like a f#@%ing mob. And listen to the boy at 3:31-32 say proudly "You can't move him." vimeo.com/312332730
Now tell me again how these weren't a pack of privileged MAGA white boys trying to exert their power over an indigenous man with a drum who was only trying to bring peace.
And listen to one of the chaperones. She's asked if she's responsible for these children. She responds that she's responsible for herself & her life & she's very happy in it. There's the selfishness right there. There's the privilege. There's the enabling. vimeo.com/312373236
There. Now I've posted video clip after video clip, from various cell phones and perspectives there in the crowd.
If any want to insist I've missed something that exonerates this little white boy & his friends, you may now take your white moderate bullshit elsewhere. I hope you didn't post anything MLK today. Clearly you've yet to grasp the concepts he was giving his all to try to teach us.
