title is fitting...


How We Destroy Lives Today

Quote:
In this one episode, you had a gentle, 64-year-old Native American man being swarmed by white (boo!), male (boo!), preppy (double boo!) Trump supporters (infinite boo!). If you are trying to rub the pleasure centers of a liberal audience, this is truly a story too good to check.

Saturday was a day of liberal vindication. See! This is what those people do! This is who they really are. Reza Aslan, the religious scholar, tweeted a photo of the main Covington boy and asked, “Have you ever seen a more punchable face than this kid’s?” The filmmaker Michael Green showed the same image and tweeted: “A face like that never changes. This image will define his life. No one need ever forgive him.”

I would consider it a verbal confrontation.

I get irked that progressives constantly use the word “attack” to describe any verbal criticism. I definitely wouldn’t turn around and make the same mistake. As you can see, they’ll get caught up in pedantry and ignore everything else if you mis-use any words. Doesn’t matter when they do it.

Why don’t you point exactly when, where & what the NA “screamed” at the high schooler. Also, point out exactly when & where in the video the NA walked right up to the high schooler & got in his face. This should be good.

How would I know what tribal song it is? Anyone with functioning ears knows he was singing a tribal song, not screaming in the high schoolers gave. Please.

I guess the next step for out of control hate fueled liberals is to murder young people who are Christian and support Trump. Unbelievable that their school had to shut down because of all the threats. I'm sorry but someone is SICK IN THE HEAD who makes threats like this
Quote:

I have received physical and death threats via social media, as well as hateful insults. One person threatened to harm me at school, and one person claims to live in my neighborhood. My parents are receiving death and professional threats because of the social media mob that has formed over this issue.

He also lied in one of his earlier interviews, saying the 15 year old boy got in front of him. That little group moved in on the kids with multiple cameras. They were there to provoke. The weasel next to Nathan Phillips was trying to antagonize and bait the kids into reacting but you can see the 15 year old advising his classmate not to react to the bait.

You’ve mistaken me for someone who you think would care what some random keyboard pounders think of me.

I personally don't react that strongly to the hats. But I understand why others do.

Default Should Twitter and Facebook Be Sued For Posting Threats to Covington Kids?

Covington kids should sue Twitter

You see, by censoring conservative tweets on Facebook and Twitter, these multi-national corporations became publishers and not impartial web platforms -- especially since death threats are against their rules but they allowed these tweets anyway.

You allow them, you own them.

...
"Twitter now owns every tweet on its site. That means if someone is libeled and bothers to sue, his lawyer is going after the publisher: Twitter."


The blogpost contains tweets suggesting that the kids should be put in a wood chipper... and the school should be burned down...

Consider this also... remember when Craigslist and other shadowy sites had to change because a law was put in place that made them liable for sexual assaults if advertisements linked to a crime were posted on their servers? Seems like the same should come into play here.

Maybe a lawsuit will put them on notice about their content.
