On Those Catholic Kids That "Attacked" the Native Americans

[brimic]

It probably all ends with a whimper.

Our firearms are more likely to be used locally for self preservation in the event of societal breakdown than in defense of the nation, or against tyrannical government.

The government schools have been training the future generations to give up the rights in the 2nd amendment. It will be legislated away with the approval of the majority in due time.

Trump and the Supreme Court have put up some speed bumps but I’m not confident in the coming generations education on the issues.

No reason to confiscate guns from us older folks, we’ll soon be shaking off this mortal coil.

I wouldn't count on it.
You see those kids in that video? They were born on or after 2000. They didn't even blink while being harassed by 2 different groups of minorities, and they still aren't.  There is a lot of anecdotal evidence out there indicating that generation to be one of the most red-pilled generation ever. I'd put the odds that they will be the generation that puts things back right, Gen-X failed, Millenials are a lost cause...

I’ve been known to be wrong 

Certainly I was wrong about his media appearance on the morning talk show. From all accounts he stood like a rock and spoke truth to the vipers.

They pulled Phillip's DD-214. Refrigerator repairman in Nebraska. Even if you let the Vietnam Vet stuff go as a misunderstanding, it's hard to let the " They spit on me when I got back" stuff go since he apparently never left. Well, except to go AWOL.

It's not at all surprising that a Democratic politician ascribes more honor to someone for being non-white.

I saw earlier where Don Shipley had requested his DD214. Glad it came to light.

They might as well start handing out Nobel Peace Prizes for being non-white. Oh wait.

Interesting times are coming, between the all pervasive propaganda we’re subjected to and our natural tendency to believe or go along with mass delusions, things are just going to get weirder I’m afraid.

Folks are actually watching the full video and hallucinating that the kid provoked the Natve American.

Who can escape their cognitive biases?

This guy really sounds like he is milking his service and approaching a stolen valor type status. I will say I do find this part maybe plausible, outside the "when I got back". I do believe it is possible that the spitting part happened, but obviously the "when I got back" part has to be false as he demonstrably never went away to get back according to his DD-214.

I was born in a Naval Hospital. Havelock(Cherry Point). My parents experienced an incident when I was very young, maybe 6 months or a year old. This would have been the very end of the actual Marines or any troops being over there. My father was carrying me and encountered "hippies" that cursed him, spit on him and called him a baby killer. My father was never deployed to Vietnam, he spent his entire service and the last few years of the Vietnam War in the US. Maybe they made this up, but I have no reason to believe that or why they would. This would have been just before or after Phillips was according to his DD-214 a Marine.

So yeah I think it might be possible he was harassed for being a Marine, or any service member during that time. Those harassers would of course most likely be the same type of people/from the same part of the political spectrum he seems to identify with and be one of today, so that seems a little strange, but yeah maybe could have happened.

Him claiming to have been in Vietnam obviously false. His getting in the face of the student, inexcusable, he was obviously the aggressor. I don't believe for one second he was trying to defuse anything.

I really hate to call out a particular group of people but having worked on a couple of very impoverished reservations my experience is that there is a local respect given to those who join the military which leads to many of the Indians I encountered in the ER to embellish their Vet status. It is also of note that most who did that in the ER were also highly intoxicated. What does it mean? I don't know. Just some people like to embellish and when it brings added respect or other tangible benefits they are more likely to do it.

I caught a bit of him being interviewed by that *can't use impolite adjective* Savannah Guthrie. He's so so slimy I'm surprised he didn't slip out of his chair and, of course, she was fawning over him like a school girl over Justin Bieber.

I do not understand how this keeps going when there is so much video and it all supports the boys story. They're isn't one shred of evidence that Nathan Phillips is anything but lying.  It's like the major news outlets still don't get the internet and what they air on TV isn't the only thing the public sees.

[Ben]

Nathan Phillips fawning is mild compared to what's starting now. I expected them to keep quiet about the African Israelites. I didn't expect them to put out practically feel good stories in their defense, but that's apparently what the NYT has done. Poor, misunderstood, mislabeled hate group.

[French G.]

Sad part is I saw the story about local boy gone whack from the year 2000 where the Nebraska news caught up with Standing BS at his tepee on the national Mall. So a twenty year professional protestor. Give me a break.

[zxcvbob]

There are still new stories still coming out about what hateful aholes the kids are, based solely on the initial 10 second video.  "I don't care about the 2 hour video, I know what I saw" type of stuff.  (the "I know what I saw" is a direct quote, I added the I don't care part for context)  I can't wait for Mr Barnes to start filing libel lawsuits against the NYT, etc.  I'm not sure if that starts tomorrow or Monday...

I don't expect Phillips to be named in the suit as a defendant (I doubt he has any assets) but probably called as a witness and exposed as a lying sack of *expletive deleted*it.

The NYTs take on the Hebrew Israelites
Long story short: Their behavior that day was normal for them so nothing to see here, move along.

Two sections that may be of interest

Dating back more than a century, the theology is difficult to define today because the movement is split into dozens of semiautonomous groups. In general, adherents contend that race does not exist, and so they eschew being referred to as black or categorizing anyone else by race. They group people instead based on what they call nations, believing that there are 12 tribes among God’s chosen people. White people are not among those tribes, they believe, and will therefore be servants when Christ returns to Earth.

And

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks extremist groups, categorized at least 80 groups nationwide that follow Hebrew Israelite theology as hate groups. They account for about a third of the organizations that the center considered black nationalist groups in 2017.

[WLJ]

Make that three sections

To many black people, Hebrew Israelites are a harmless part of their communities, said Todd Boyd, a professor of race and pop culture at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, one of many cities where the group can be seen working the streets. More alarming to many African Americans, he said, is “seeing a white guy in a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat.”

I like the part where he says they were taunting him with "Build the wall." 'Cuz Native peoples are so desperate to bring in their relatives from the Old Country, I guess?

Internet lynch mobs are one of the most repulsive things about the USA today.

How did something so stupid make the the national news?  What is wrong with these crazy people who try and ruin the lives of strangers?

You know the left has really changed in this country when you find its denizens glorifying America’s role in the Vietnam War and lionizing the social attitudes of the corporate monolith Procter & Gamble [referring to the Gillette ad].

[Author's admonishment to the New York Times]
You were partly responsible for the election of Trump because you are the most influential newspaper in the country, and you are not fair or impartial. Millions of Americans believe you hate them and that you will casually harm them. Two years ago, they fought back against you, and they won. If Trump wins again, you will once again have played a small but important role in that victory.
