      No. And one of those boys was black and being taunted by the Black Israelites.

      Assuming that the boys in this video are indeed the Covington lads, is this not fairly dispositive evidence that our initial impression of how they were behaving that day was largely correct? https://twitter.com/roflinds/status/1087486166939680768 …

      That they were rowdy is not denied. But I won’t stop you from defending yourself by saying: “Hey we lied about these kids mobbing someone, and doxxed the wrong people. but here’s another unverifiable accusation that makes me feel better”

      Doing a Tomahawk whoop to a Native man seems to me considerably worse to me than "rowdy"

      Some of the students said they thought he was coming to support them. Guess when the death threats started coming in they learned otherwise.

      The guy they did the Tomahawk chant to was not making death threats. I live in a city where the largest minority group are Natives. I would be mortified if my kids grew up thinking it was okay do to a Tomahawk chant.

      I’d be humiliated if I defended the doxing of kids who did their school chant when adult cult members harassed them and called their classmates the n word.

      I'd be humiliated if I were a chaperone and I allowed kids under my supervision to interact with some obvious loons while waiting for the bus.

      I agree the chaperones should bear a much higher burden of responsibility for this than the kids.
