I'm guessing (maybe incorrectly) that since the NATIONAL GUARD was escorting these kids into school, many parents warned their kids to steer clear of that protest. Don't get involved, don't get hurt, it's the national guard and a bunch of hot headed kids protesting with national media gearing up.

And yet . .. and yet ... there's Jones. Right there, front and center.

Be interesting to hear an honest conversation with him, where he might say what his parents told him to expect, and what they instructed him to do that day at school. It was obviously a HUGE big day, with the guard and national news coverage.

Honestly. Be interesting to hear his take.

Look at the picture. Moving to his right, he'd ONLY HAVE TO STEP OVER ONE PERSON to get to the black students.

You might be unaware we can all see the picture.

Just stop, yourself. No one has proven that wrong.

The crowd isn't deep, sorry you have trouble seeing that. It's wide but not deep.

The reason he was recognized by the WaPo is because he was front and center. A face in the back of the crowd wouldn't be recognizable.

One media outlet even went so far as to retrace his possible steps in getting to that position in the photograph, insinuating that to get to that particular spot would have taken effort and could only have meant he was willing to participate in blocking the students from entering. Ludicrous.

Ya wanna see REAL racism & prejudice?
Here...try this...people running the Country, in the mid 90s:

The most racist legislation in the last 50 years is the 1994 Crime Bill...authored by Joe Biden & signed into law by Bill Clinton.
It killed and stripped the freedom, liberty, and possessions from hundreds of thousands of Blacks & minorities.
Most of the problems that BLM & the Social Justice Protesters marched against can be traced back to that legislation and Joe Biden & Bill Clinton.

Clinton also signed the Defense of Marriage Act...stating that "marriage is between one man and one woman" and blocked Federal recognition of Gay Marriage.

THESE are the real racist & prejudiced people.

Lotta nothing burgers these days. I'm sure Jerry Jones is not the same guy he was at 15 years old. That's how it was back then. I'm sure Boss man isn't interested in blocking anyone from going to school now. BUT! The photo is relevant!

He wasn't in the back of the crowd.

And now, this has become a parody of the Monty Python argument skit, which is really funny, so I'll leave you with that. I'm done with the yes he is, no he's not yes he is argument. The photo is in this thread. Anyone looking at the pic can see he's in the second row of white people protesting the Arkansas 9.

So if he steps between the two kids in front of him he would only have to climb over the grimacing kid and the reporter.

Correct, we can all see the picture yet you are the only one making this ridiculous argument.
