Even MSN has jumped onboard with the updated information and videos. Their new article on it is pretty damning as well to the Black Israelite group, whom an attendant claims was mocking the Indians and then teed off on the Covington kids the moment they walked into the area.
I watched the longer video, and from what I saw, those kids are definitely in the wrong, especially the one who stood in the NAs face, the condescending, pure hatred look on his face was undeniable imo!.
A twisted agenda will see that. Granted if the teenager wasn't white it wouldnt matter to you. Understood.

It's not a claim, when it's the truth. But lets protect the minority because they are children and need our help, right?
I don't see why, this wasn't an Antifa protest. The kids were gathering to wait for a bus not looking for trouble. Tired of the first thing considered provocative to be the red hat, what about the crazy things some other groups do - from black clothes and masks to threatening signs and words and carrying weapons. In this case no one was more inflammatory than those black Israelites. Then the native guys. Kids did nothing wrong. And no one was violent here, just words and gestures but STILL something was created out of nothing.
It's always the white conservative's fault...he/she always has to be the one to back down or defer. Why is that? We should really ask. Other groups allowed to run wild but a conservative man or woman, even a kid, can't make their statement or show their support for their beliefs. Why put it on them?
"Yelling 'Fire!' in a crowded theater" ring any bells? Wearing Trump regalia in such a heated situation exacerbated things, though I grant you if the boys arrived there wearing it already, as it seems that they came straight from participating in the March for Life, taking it off might not have helped.
The chaperones certainly failed to do their jobs, however. Why not just take the kids to the other side of the Lincoln Memorial, which has steps on all four sides, and have one chaperone remain behind to watch for the bus to arrive? I doubt if the kids would have been followed by either of the other two groups. Where was the good judgment of the chaperones and school personnel??
Why even bring up Antifa, since they had nothing to do with this situation? Aren't the three groups which actually WERE involved enough? Don't muddy the waters by interjecting a fourth which had no presence or involvement in the incident.
Knowing more about this situation these were fine young men who handled this situation well. Compare that to the Democrat teens in Baltimore who were looting and rioting in protest during the Freddie Gray case.
These kids behaved in a far classier manner than the people you see at an Antifa or Occupy Wall Street or Black Lies rally.

The first problem with your post is that Covington isn’t a suburb.
It looks like a suburb of any major city. Plus its depressing.
