        I went to a Catholic boys HS. The priests would have killed us for acting this way.

        As did I. There's no way on a field trip that the Basilians would have let us get into a shouting match with a bunch of Black Hebrew Israelites and then mock a Native American elder trying to step in to calm things down. That was nearly 40 years ago.

        Not sure why everybody didn’t recognize immediately that this would follow the Kavanaugh script.

        This is simple in my mind. If either of my boys behaved like this, for any reason, they would be punished at home, not coached and raised up as a paragon of any group’s values. Where are the parents of this kid? Smarmy and disrespectful don’t fly in my house.

        Well done. Love reading your articles. First thing I want to see in 2020 is a new Fairness Doctrine.

        Downright sad to see the MSM ... especially Savannah Guthrie ... become part of the spin ... trying to convince me my eyes had deceived me. I wish The Covington young men nothing but the best. Sometimes being held accountable is the best ... which doesn’t seem to be happening.
