It made me want to throw up, but hey, do anything to #triggerthelibs or #triggerthecons. We are stooping so low, it is wanton. God bless Nathan Phillips, an American vet, he’s done more to make America great as it is now than any of those people for this country, and he stood there proudly, not batting an eyelash, knowing full well that he was in a very dangerous situation. What’s even more so awe-inspiring is he began to sing a prayer of healing for the terribly-behaved around him, wishing them well and that one day they may be cured of their troubles. Thomas Massie needs to comdemn this, I hope he will, I think he is better than this.

Do you think that they should be expelled or suspended? Should Trump call this conduct out and condemn it? What would you have done if you were there?

Update 1: Self edited OP to be less hostile and more constructive. I'll apologize and fix my OP since it proved offensive, but this is a good thread for discussion, and as long as everything goes smoothly from here, it's a good conversation.

It made me want to throw up, but hey, do anything to #triggerthelibs or #triggerthecons. We are stooping so low, it is wanton. These are all basically clones of Kavanaugh when he was younger. God bless Nathan Phillips, an American vet, he’s done more to make America great as it is now than any of those make America white again turds for this country, and he stood there proudly, not batting an eyelash, knowing full well that he was in a very dangerous situation. What’s even more so awe-inspiring is he began to sing a prayer of healing for the brutes around him, wishing them well and that one day they may be cured of their troubles. Thomas Massie needs to comdemn this, I hope he will, I think he is better than this.

you have anything were supposed to be discussing? this sounds more like a blog entry then a NS general Discussion thread plus I would watch out on using terms such as
( America white again turds) and (basically clones of Kavanaugh) those could be considered flaming and or trolling and depending on your warning history moderation has various consequences they cold doll out.

Seems like a bit of harmless fun to me, for the most part.

Edit: Saw some more footage of said event and... yeah, disappointing, especially since I support Trump's policies and this reflects badly on us.

These people genuinely believe they are being persecuted for being white, christian and conservative.... while bullying actual ethnic and religious minorities.

You support this and yet believe it reflects badly on you ?

It's ok when whites do it. Just harmless fun, really.

Trumps policies are not to harass native americans, so he can support trump and not that.

Yup. I want to build a wall and such, but I wouldn't go and harass people or disrupt protest marches because of their race, views etc.

An idiot who supports the idiot the US has for president does something idiotic. In other news, water is wet.

Those guys were being rude.

Everyone should be able to honor their dead without being hassled. Doesn't matter what race or nationality. It's just a normal human thing wanting to pay respects.

Edit: I misread what they were disrupting. Still rude, though.

And people say there's no racists among the MAGAists.

As the great Marge Simpson once said, "Lately, what's keeping us together is my ability to overlook everything you do."

I'm sure this will be a long, fun thread of pretending that these particular MAGA folks are the super ultra mega rare exception.

Screaming "BUILD THAT WALL" at a native American activist is kinda like the most beautiful encapsulation of the MAGA-brain.

Good thing it didn't get violent.

What people are saying that? Because it's obviously wrong. A movement as large as MAGA will of course have racists, so whoever you're quoting must be out of their mind.

Why are you ignoring the fact that there multiple non-whites in the crowd of taunters? Seems convenient for you to ignore that fact.

And by multiple you mean... two? I'll trust you if you say there were two. I only say the one Black kid who looked to be maybe 14.

Yeah I counted two three.

I'd also like to point out a few things, keyword being "point out" and not "prove".

1. No footage shows what happened or the events leading up to the incident: ie; no footage shows the MAGA Students surrounding the group of indigenous activists.

2. An indigenous activist in the area stated this; “As we tried to move through the crowd, they closed in tighter around us, and wouldn’t allow anyone to pass. It was obvious that they wanted any excuse for the day to turn violent... the very few of us left stood quietly, trying to remain calm... I was so confused about why these boys would go out of their way to harass such a small, vulnerable group.”

What is special about this quote? Well, notice the descriptions. The "small" group of indigenous activists were trying to make their way to the building behind the MAGA Students. It is unclear why. Secondly, why is the group of indigenous activists so small? I highly doubt only a handful of people attended the Native American Rally that they could be surrounded by a class of MAGA Students. Is it possible that that these indigenous activists broke away from the main bunch of their rally to approach the MAGA Students? Very possible. Although we won't know for sure who approached who, but this description given by an attendant seems to shed some light on the issue...

3. Nobody in the indigenous crowd even attempted to leave on camera.

One day, one of your strawmen will actually have someone standing behind it. Alas, today is not that day.

Its truly sad to see young people being so racist and bigoted.

Seems pretty rude.

One day one of your gotchas will actually mean something.

Who says there are no racist trump supporters?
