And somehow that makes everything A-OK in your book. "Well, the mother called them Muslims when clearly, if had she done the requisite in-depth internet research she would have found that, they are in fact Black 'Israelites'". Totally understandable from your viewpoint. By the way, the so-called "elder Native American" retreated to the group of kids -- not the other way around.
This was also the day before the "Women's March" -- an event organized by supporters of the anti-Jewish black Muslim Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan. Perhaps this was on your mind.
According to video evidence, you had a black supremacist group yelling racist rhetoric at the kids and the kids largely just laughing it off and playing along with them. You then had the native guys try to push through the middle of their group while yelling racist rhetoric at them. Again, these two groups are lucky that the kids had a good sense of humor and just laughed them off. If they were bad kids, the black supremacists and the native group easily could have ended up in the hospital. There was no one there to stop things if the kids took offense to the racist nonsense and decided to get violent.
He didn't "retreat to the group of kids", he sought to antagonize the kids by cutting right through the middle of them while playing his drum in their face while his people yelled racist nonsense. Vet or not, that guy was a piece of ****
Understandable mistake, if you didn't know the specific hateful rhetoric of the black supremacist group it's easy to get them confused for a different black supremacy group.
Don't let the truth get buried on page 9! Wonder why this video has not gone viral? "You are the devil...you're a culture vulture...that's the last Mohican." "Bring y'all cracker-ass up here and make a statement...you dirty ass crackers yo day coming." You want to know who calls Trump supporters racist? "A bunch of child-molesting faggots...I'm warning you {word that is now banned on CF}...you got all these dirty-ass crackers...your coon-ass wants you want to fight your brothers...you {word that is now banned on CF}, you {word that is now banned on CF}...get your Uncle Tom-ass out of here." AND HERE IS WHERE THE ELDER NATIVE-AMERICAN SHOWS UP. LOL! Looks like he is the one who walks over to them -- not the opposite.
It kinda shows that the parents are your typical isolated bubble racists, as in they aren't vehehment white nationalist but are just naturally uncomfortable being around people who don't look like them and just make random assumptions about people who aren't like them. There is definitely is 400 years of conolex history where black people might have some hardh words to say. It's divisive but I can undwrunder the resentment.
The thinking I'm seeming to encounter is that not approving of this kids actions somehow implies everybody else in DC that afternoon was a saint. Disapproving of the way this kid acted doesnt in the slightest imply anything positive, negative or neutral about anybody else in the District of Colombia on the day in question. The douchebag kid is a little ****, the black religious schismstics are assholes, and while I take least issue with the Native Americans trying to break up the two groups, they could have done better too. Reminds me of the kids who killed that lady in a car accident after throwing stuff at cars and having a gun flashed at them. The fact that the dude threatened with a gun doesnt mean the kids are blameless WRT murdering the innocent lady. The fact that the kid was riled up from sparring with religious nuts informs understanding of his behavior but doesn't excuse it.
So you were upset about the kid standing still and "smirking", but the native group screaming racist nonsense at the group merits only "they could have done better".....that's brilliant. so in short, the kids were wrong for standing where they were waiting on the bus, or at least they were more wrong for doing that than the 2 groups of racists trying to provoke them? Is that were we're at?
So your beef isn't with the Black Israelites for using so-called 'racist' and 'homophobic' rhetoric, but instead your beef is with the mother of one of the victims of the Black Israelites' violent protest for calling them Muslim? Sounds about right.
I failed to read your prior statements of outrage against the Black Israelites and the elder Native American. Could you point myself and others in the direction of those posts?
Well if they had been white and were wearing hats he disagreed with then he'd have been outraged by them. The black supremacists spewing racist rhetoric and the native group doing the same isn't really a problem though....certainly not as big a problem as a white kid with a hat he doesn't like standing and smiling. You have to understand what is really offensive to him.
I don't know @Bobbythegreat. The kid had a hat, and a smirk. Next thing you know, he'll be invading Poland.
whys that? All he did was stand still while somebody invaded his space and started drumming in his face and another guy yelled racist things at him. Then this drummer lied to the media and tried to smear him. Then SJWs like Carl jumped in to smear him too. Basically a full campaign goes out against the kid to ruin his life including the washington post, CNN, NYT. Lets be honest, his crime was wearing a MAGA hat.
Nobody has tried to defend the black Israelites so there has no need to discuss. I have very strong feelings on the relative merits of the Antiones classic po boy vs the super po boy and getting the bread fresh from the store vs getting one from one of those soggy super market shelves. But since nobody's screaming in defense of soggy antonine super po boys I have exactly zero posts on the subject. And for the record I have no "beef" with Philips. He was trying to break up the yelling match. I think he could have probably done a better job of communicating his intent but he did his best. Everything here is reaction to the MAGA knee jerk reaction. That $15 spent on a ball cap has gone further un generating results than any other $15 dollars spent in the history of man. Without this cap, I'd have seen it in /r/trashy, not commented as I didn't comment when I first saw it on reddit, and forgotten it by now.
That's an outright lie you are parroting, he was attempting to antagonize them by running right through the middle of them and banging his drum in their faces.....while the rest of his group yelled racist nonsense at them. You of course don't have a problem with that because he wasn't wearing a hat you disagree with. It's okay to admit it. You are blinded by tribalism, it happens.
I think if he wasn't wearing a MAGA hat I'd have seen it on /r/trashy, everybody who cared enough to do so would call him a douchebag and nobody would give a second thought to trying to defend him and it would probably be already forgotten. I haven't made a single comment in the reddit thread because nobody's trying to defend him because of that MAGA hat. With nobody defending it I could file it away in my memory like this trashy beauty: (Spoilered for NSFW) Spoiler Please tell me none of you think that tattoo is something that you'd be proud to show mom.
