Whis rushing to judgement? Trying to figure out who kid representing truth isn’t a rush to judgement. It’s a search to find out who’s lying. If he isn’t a Vietnam veteran and says he is, that’s a big deal. If he never said that, and the WP just made it up that’s always a big deal.

You're now rushing to judgments about me being an extreme lefty based on what I said about a child and his shit-eating grin, then made a handful of baseless accusations like I'm pro Hillary, LOL.
I mean, just imagine if this had been a group of Black kids doing similar. “Thugs” would be heard round these parts from the usual suspects.

1) This story is blown way out of proportion2) Those White kids were indeed acting like intolerant racist by mocking the Native Americans there, but luckily no one was hurt so see 1) above
3) The PR spin that the kids and especially "Smirk Boy" are the innocent victims here is hilarious though, top-notch spinning there. "He was doing a silent prayer trying to deescalate the situation". Top Lolz.
The positive that came out of this: More and more Americans are starting to associate #MAGA and MAGA-Hats as being symbols synonymous with bigotry, oppression, racism and intolerance. As the Trumper's favorite son said it best: "I love it!".
edit: Apparently some wealthy parents hired a PR firm to spin the story in favor of the kid and kids in general, so that makes sense in regards to 3). World-Class spinning, that.

Do we have proof?
He legit on camera said the kids were saying build the wall. The video contradicts him. It's never heard. And we have video that starts over an hour before the confrontation so there can be no excuse of "well it just wasn't captured on video" . He said they yelled build the wall at him and it just wasn't true.
He also lied about being a Vietnam vet. He was a marine during the time the war was going on, but he was never deployed to vietnam.

Yea we are doomed to keep doing this because the nations disource has severely been damaged over the past 20-30 years.
If the US lasts another 50 years I would be suprised. Incidents like this will keep happening, we will all keep arguing about what someone else did and why it was so horrible. Meanwhile what’s going to happen is ithis scenario will keep being played out 100-1000 different ways.
Trump surely has responsibility for some civil discourse but for none to put equal blame on democrats who refuse to denounce this typos of crap is equally disgusting.

I wonder how folk would react if the native american guy was a white guy and the white kids were black youths. Still go after the kids for getting in an elderly white mans face, right?
I think people would react in the same way but the story would get a lot less coverage so less people would be exposed to it, leading to less outrage an a mass scale.

Just imagine if the elderly man was white and the youths were black. You still think they'd be attacked for disrespecting the elderly white man getting in their face and chanting?

Regardless of the situation or who’s doing what or what skin color or race it could have been. The point is it’s disgustinc where we are as a nation.
