EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Polish lawmaker invites ‘wrongfully accused’ Covington students to Parliament

POLAND, January 21, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – A Polish lawmaker has invited U.S. Catholic students from Covington Catholic High School in Kentucky to speak at the Polish Parliament after they were falsely accused by mainstream media over the weekend of mocking Native Americans outside the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.

“Dear Covington Catholic students, I’d like to invite You to the Polish Parliament. After watching this video, I Am now standing up for these wrongfully accused young men and all of You!,” wrote Dominik Tarczyński, Conservative member of the Polish Parliament, and newly elected Vice President of the European Conservatives in Council of Europe, in a Jan. 20 Twitter post.

“You are very welcome to come and speak out what You believe in,” he added.
How completely unpredictable.

Corruption and factionism is truly rampant among the rich and the Catholics.
Polish lawmakers didn't invite falsely accused African Americans, they didn't invite falsely accused Jews, they didn't invite Obama when he was falsely accused of not being American.

That escalated quickly.

Covington Catholic School Remix - Won't Back Down
Satan doesn't back down either. At least that is how the dogma and mythology go.
I think that is even what Satanists teach. But WWJD? Probably let his enemies do what they must, and quickly backing down given that his group only had two swords that they bought at his orders.

If that Indian had started drumming in my face when I was 15 I’d probably have stated something like. Back off, Geronimo. The kid was pretty restrained.

Two thoughts.

No, not all liberals support the Black Hebrew Israelites. In fact, I had never heard of the organization before this incident became such a thing.

The second, and perhaps more important point is this: nobody got hurt. This was a situation where there were at least three groups with conflicting agendas, some ugly words and looks were exchanged, and still, nobody got hurt.

This conflict could easily have become violent, but it didn't. Honestly, I am not sure why people have become so obsessed with this story. It has gotten a lot more attention from both the left and the right than it deserves.

Have you really done the math, though? False equivalency is a really lazy thing. At least the first instance I heard of this story was here in city-data in this thread pushed by zealous conservatives.

They came for Covington Catholic; next will they come for you?

You should talk to some students from various schools that were allowed to do that in the past - you think you "got them" but you didn't, at all.

It's called: "A Blackout Theme" and has absolutely nothing to do with race.

Venture out and seek information so you have a clue what's going on.

Let me help you with that:

It’s hilarious seeing all these hot takes from people who have clearly never been to a highschool sports game
It is, indeed.

The Covington kids are NOT in “black face.”

LOL, they are getting desperate now to find anything.
