"god, can you fucking BELIEVE what utterly unremarkable highschoolers these little assholes are? dox 'em! expel 'em! get Joey on the phone with some bomb and arson and other miscellaneous death threats!"

No one is endorsing death threats. Doxing was inevitable as soon as the video went up as their school was clearly identifiable. It’s banal because many of us saw this same shit many times in school, it just wasn’t caught on video. That doesn’t make it any less bad.

this same shit: kids dancing when somebody is beating a drum nearby! holy shit, inexcusable! (not an exaggeration, i was told barely a couple hours ago that that's what it was.) mimicking back behavior being done at them! stop the presses!

god damn, that really gives me some flashbacks of running as fast as i can from a large group of older, stronger kids who i couldn't actually get away from and who when they caught me kept kicking and punching me for i have no idea how long, they didn't want anything, just that

I can barely believe we watched the same footage. I got nauseous when they were circling around him, with the ringleader saying “don’t touch him, don’t touch him,” because that’s exactly how the kids I went to school would try to start a fight in public without hitting first.

holy shit you can't think of *any other reason* that somebody would say not to touch the dude in that situation? in particular given that no fight was started and it was Phillips who rolled up on the kids, not the other way around?

While still crowding the guy in a circle!? No, I can’t. If they were trying to keep him safe, they would have backed away. Even if the guy saying don’t touch him was trying to defuse the situation, the kids he was trying to... prevent from touching the guy sure weren’t.

do you understand that you are talking about *high school children*? one of whom was acting responsibly to deescalate a situation that an adult was blatantly working to escalate? and blaming them for you being able to Monday morning quarterback their conflict handling?

their *successful* conflict handling, in that no one was hurt despite Phillips's best efforts

Seriously? Okay, I’m throwing in the towel.

dead fucking serious, unless you want to go on the record as endorsing walking up to someone and beating a drum four inches away from their face as the gold standard of deescalation
