    Absolutely you do and I can prove it.

    Your second post in this thread: for what? not being white enough? why do you think this native American elder deserved to get his ass kicked?

    You assumed racism where none existed from a man who lied about being intimidated because you didn't research the subject carefully letting your own racism fill in the gaps.

    You condonmened these kids of racism without being able to point to a single thing they did other than stand there and you don't think that's racist?

    Unimportant and not to the point anyway. Ones a poor misunderstood child the other a thug. Over and over the names aren't important.

    With the Buzzfeed fake news, and then this story over the weekend...one has to start wondering if the left really just wants to destroy the free press?

    Considering that the interaction of the Native American Elder and the young man happened inside the beltway, I thought it was rather friendly -- smiles, no scowls, no fist shaking, no sabre rattling, no violence.

    The above is of course, confined only to the interaction of those two people.

    There were, for example, some tomahawk chop gestures.
    I said the kids were baited and I see no reason to change my assessment. The teachers who led the kids to the pro-life rally were in way over their heads. It wasn't a trip to the museum.

    In my years of teaching, I sponsored student government many times and took hundreds of students on school-wide field trips. Any time you take kids to the seat of government--and I did because I believe seeing their government encourages kids to be active citizens as adults--you put them in a position where they can run into people who are protesting.

    One of the teachers was reported by the kids to have told them to start a school chant. If that's true (I believe the kids), it was a bad idea. If the kids had reacted by sitting down and chanting, "The world is watching!" the jokers provoking them would likely have been made to look like the aggressors they were.

    I prepared kids before taking them on field trips--to be safe, first of all, and to act like adults. I figure I owed as much to the kids, their parents, taxpayers, and younger kids coming along in future years who would like to go on a similar field trip. I may have been lucky, but I never had a student injured, arrested, or reported to us in three decades of teaching. I never even had a kid miss the transportation back to the school.
    You're going to attack me for saying the kids were baited?
    My racist assumption the kids were baited by the old guy and before that some black protest types. What's racist about that? Do you support the black bigots and Native American guy who beat his drum in the kids' faces?

    No, just banging a drum in this face... I'd sue the thug that tried to ruin my hearing.. it IS a physical attack.

    Neither the Native American nor the young man walked into camp at night unannounced with violent intentions or to steal horses.

    It's really a non-event. That particular interaction, anyway. jmo.

    As CBS This Morning said: "The lesson here is not to jump to conclusions."

    Especially about short viral vids that are immediately crazily interpreted.

    The kid didn't put himself the the guys face, the guy put himself in the kids face and beat his drum into the kids ear. The kid showed a proper restraint instead of pushing guy back away from him which he had every right to do.

    So, when I look at the video in the OP again, then I see nothing bad of the native with the drum there ... However, the grinning, arrognate guy with the red cap on his head lucky that he has not something on the Gap gets for his disgusting arrogance. It would be justified ...

    So what was your point again? O ... yes ... the term cracker! When in million other example these crackers call the black people ******, then you only shrug about, correct?

    They were, at that specific spot, waiting for a bus.

    They went to an anti-abortion event.

    Therefore, they are evil and must be destroyed.

    They should have physically attacked the protesters who surrounded them and the one who walked into the group and beat his drum in one of the students faces? That's how they should have reacted instead of passively?

    You should watch the other, non-edited videos that are in the thread that show the entire event. The racist began yelling at the children, then the native american man for some reason got in the fact of the kid and banged his drum.

    From their school song. Do you research anything before you post?

    Too bad that isn't all you said is it.

    Your first post: I think the racism is the little maggot kid apparently thinking he can mock a Native American with impunity and have the support of other white people.

    So you used your racism to pre judge this kid with no evidence whatsoever he did anything wrong other than being white. That is pure racism.

    In way over their heads how? By showing up? By existing? Be more specific in your racism.

    Please God let this be a line.

    How is the school chant racist? Please, enlighten us all how that could be racist or intimidating in any way?

    And the kids sat there and said nothing while racist and anti gay slurs were thrown at them. They were fully prepared and did a fine job and the fact you think they didn't despite these facts says it all.

    No I'm going after you for what you actually said not what you make up after you're caught. You called them racists with no evidence whatsoever and you don't even have the courage to admit it.

    Once again that is NOT what you said. You said: I think the racism is the little maggot kid apparently thinking he can mock a Native American with impunity and have the support of other white people.

    You called the kid racist and never said they were baited anywhere in that post. You used your own racism with no evidence the kids did or said anything wrong to call them racists. All you did was expose that racism for everyone to see.

    You need to be told again? Born, raised, and educated in Southern California. Later moved to Napa, CA and Canada, and contined splitting time between Canada and Napa until about five years ago when I moved my U.S. residence to Oregon. As an adult, I added Canadian citizenship to my U.S. citizenship. Today. I live part of the year in Canada, part of the year in the U.S, and spend part of the year travellng the world.

    How about you? Are you a U.S. citizen/resident or someone using an alias to have us assuming you're a citizen/resident? Do you ever travel outside the country?
    Forget, did you? Failing memory?

    I am shocked a teacher would just to the radical conclusion of calling a child a maggot and racist without all the evidence...truly alarming....I hope this person gets fired from their teaching position for this

    Bad moi. I assume the kids were assaulted with hateful rhetoric and you say that's narrow-minded. Did you paint yourself into a corner by taking issue with my claim the kids were baited?
