So the article she posted is "opinion piece", the article you posted earlier is a fact?

You sound like a person who is in the habit of blaming the victims.

"What kind of parents allow their daughter to dress like that?"
"Which store sells teen girls this kind of short skirt?"
"I don't blame the girl for getting raped, but the parents are to blame."

rolleyes indeed.

The notion of “victim-blaming” was studied back in 1966, when two behavioral scientists at the University of Kentucky named Melvin Lerner and Carolyn H. Simmons published groundbreaking research on the need for humans to live in a “just world” by rationalizing that victims, even their own, were somehow deserving of their circumstances.

In short, When it comes to sex crimes, “clothing just doesn’t matter.”

when it comes to media pushing political agenda, how the child behaved just doesn't matter. Blame their parents, blame the Catholic school, blame Trump, blame the hat they wore, blame this blame that, just don't blame the Native American Recon ranger, just don't blame the media.

No ,if you try to read you will see as I have stated the the Catholic Church , Parents ,School administrators and Chaperones put the kids in a spot they never should have been in .However I can see how you would try to spin since your argument is nonexistent.

He made a valid point. It was not about a smirk, come on, you know what he said is true. It is about the MAGA hat and the assumptions/judgments associated with that hat.

In case it is really about a smirk for you, it is not worth it to hold on to such outrage over a teeanger you probably will never meet in the future. Plus, Unless a person has significant narcissistic features to his/her personalities, the person won't be bothered by a smirk, especially a smirk from a teenager.

Assuming the worst in others is not healthy or wise. Many people (adults included) "smirk" because they are nervous. They don't know how to act in an unknown situation. Most people know judging a child (or anyone) using 20/20 perfect hindsight is at the very least, unfair.
my post is not primarily about the smirk

it is about what the responsibility of adults who mentor or chaperone teens should be as teens look to adults for behavioral tutoring and need to be shown how to positively respond to negative or anxiety producing situations


as to smirking it does produce negative responses so it should be addressed whether it is done by an adult or a teen


the"outrage"seems to be forthcoming by those who feel behaviors are always innocent and should never be looked at for correction.I MO

the things that have been posted as to my reasons for my responses are so totally off the wall but explains clearly why instability is so prevalent in this country today

So you're okay with adults assaulting these teens, making vile and racist comments against them, beating drums in their faces and making numerous death threats against these children and their families but what riles you up is a child smiling at an adult who is trying to intimidate and harass them.

Of course, the underlying racial tensions being irritated are for the instigation of a conflagration to 'thin the herd.'
The Elite who own the media, are adding all the fuel they can, in hopes that the sheeple will kill off 94%.
That's their stated goal, pursuant to the Georgia Guidestones.

It would be ironic for the agitated parties to make peace and take out the Elites instead.
Did I just write that?
OOPS. Mea culpa.
That would be unChristian.
Of course, the Elite diminished Christianity to the point that there are too few Christians to stop the unChristians.

what exactly did they do that was "out of hand"? The chaperone allowed them to do those "cheers'...…….at the time probably a good idea to try and drown out the hate from the Black racists...…..
