The Black Hebrew Israelites are well-known for provoking people with racist slurs, not engaging in real dialogue. This is a group to be ignored not engaged.
Yet one of the students asked permission to get the group all worked up -- loud & boisterous w/their aggressive school chants in retaliation to the slurs, & the chaperone condoned the engagement.
There was no "adult in the room" when the sandman chose to grandstand for his buddies. Either. Was the "chaperone" too afraid of the old Indian playing an indigenous prayer song on his drum to "protect" the young self-appointed hero -- standing there all alone against the mean old indigenous man?
It wasn't difficult to read the boys faces in the crowd. The 'face off' was all about control & who's got it. The students had the numbers & the decibels. It must have been very heady for the covcath youngsters. Sure looked like it to me. Maybe that's why the parent$ had to hire a PR firm & plot their fancy footwork. Teaching the children well.

It doesn’t matter that these kids and their families were receiving death threats from bat chit crazy leftist loons. The nerve of these boys, standing there, like they live in a free country. You probably think death threats were not enough.

Which is why i posted
Phillips’ claim to the role of peacemaker doesn’t align with his going into the crowd of young people or his banging the drum and chanting in Sandmann’s face for several minutes. A tribal elder should be more mature than that.
And the media need to return to the standard of understanding, reporting and applying news judgment to events before deciding that it’s enough just to be viral.
You chose to ignore the rest of my post? Why is that?
Plus, like it or not, there will be a reaction with every action. Whoever started carried the most blame.
No one in this thread has ever claimed the students were saints, or angels. Saying, "They didn't do anything wrong" =/= saying they are American heroes. Even the student himself has said, "I wish I could have handled the situation differently" They (we) are only saying they (the students) do the normal things protesters normally do. Protesters (all kinds) deserve safety and be treated fairly by the media, we don't have it right now.
emoji leads me to believe that your above post is based mostly on your emotion.
Your bold, what are you talking about? The student is 15 years old, he is a teenager. At least he and his fellow students are not "adults". Are you saying he should have handled every situation perfectly every single time? sheesh, I don't expect adults to do the things I cannot do, I certainly won't expect that from a teenager who is 18 years younger than me.
Plus, you can judge a teenager based on perfect 20/20 hindsight, it is your right. But I won't, I am not perfect myself, maybe you are. In this situation, I know who is the liar (Phillips), who is the drama queen (Phillips), who started the mess (black hebrew or whatever they call themselves), who is to blame and who is real evil. (The media which has lost integrity a long time ago)

No attorney can (ethically) guarantee a particular result, because there are too many variables, and every case is different and so on, but here you are, claim you can guarantee a result.
Plus, the author of your article posted the above as a view point, I have said it to you pages ago and I am going to say it again. It looks like you do not know the differences between a view point and a fact.
Last but not the least, you don't seem to understand why the students might have a case. They can threaten lawsuits against media unless they (the media) retract false stories. It has nothing to do with the stupid article you posted.

Most of the wrong was done by the media after the event.editing tapes and spinning a false story.
