      You should read this @laurawags essay. We’ve had two years with Trump, and too many folks are still unwilling to call out racist bullying. On video! If you need to experience this to recognize it, we are in trouble. http://deadsp.in/CZdFhzn

      “I see a frothing mass of MAGA youth—who, since we’re taking in all angles here, go to a school where students fairly recently wore blackface to a basketball game—frenzied and yelling and out of control.”

      “I see four black men who seem to belong to the Black Israelites—a threat to women in their orbit, but not to random white people they’re heckling—yelling insults at the students.”

          “Then I see Phillips... walk up to the teens, in what seems to be an attempt to diffuse the situation. I see them laughing and dancing, red MAGA hats bobbing up and down in glee. I see them yell in Phillips’ face, and I see that he doesn’t falter.”

          Um, the Black Israelites targeted a BLACK Covington student, calling him a "n****h", a product of incest, a future child molester. Instead of frantic Tweeting, watch the video which apparently you have not bothered to watch:https://www.greensboro.com/warning-offensive-language-full-video-of-covington-catholic-students-black/youtube_8383524a-d9b5-5c5b-a751-5e864a3ac645.html …

          but you didnt see them heckle the Indigenous people or them plea with them to stop and then the BHI direct the Indigenous people toward the Covington kids and it was the BHI saying build the wall, not the kids. You can not process simple information

          so we are going to incriminate face crimes and wearing of headgear but not of swearing -- not challenging just trying to get the factual base of the argument established

          The black men yelled abuse at the native americans you are angry on behalf of :- "Uncle Tomahawk", "F*ggots", "You were dancing round totem poles so God took your land away from you" etc. Then they yelled abuse at the white children :- crackers, f*ggots, incest spawn etc.
