Again we are misled by media with an agenda.

Missing from this are the "Black Hebrew Israelites".

It is obvious to any impartial viewer of available footage that the school kid was somewhat uncertain of the intentions of the Native American, Nathan, and even turned to one of his school mates who was arguing with another Native American and indicated to him to desist.

Nathan lied; he was the one who approached the kids and the only persons who were saying "Build the wall" were the Israelites who also were shouting some really vile stuff at the kids.

A really bad day for legacy media.

^^^^ Nonsense. You’re really being sucked into the right wing lunatic asylum by Tucker Carlson, sadly. Time to wake up! Step away from the TV, and read. Start here:

A paragraph from the above:

Quote:
The Covington students are not likely to have their summary executions by police officers justified, they will not be separated from their parents for the crime of seeking asylum, they are not disproportionately more likely to be charged as adults for crimes they have committed as children, they are not likely to be stalked in the night and murdered by grown men who become folk heroes for acting out the violent racist fantasies of others. The president’s campaign merchandise remains a favorite of white-supremacist groups, and his name remains a racist taunt for those seeking to antagonize people of color of any age. None of this has changed, and the disgraceful overreaction of some liberals does not change it. If the right extended the sympathy the Covington students are now receiving to children who don’t remind them of their own, this would be a more just society.
The original contains lots of links to materials expanding on the examples cited.

The point is that over-reaction to the Covington students, and over-correction of that reaction, are both wrong.

Point taken.

However, what is glaring to me...How could any responsible media institution miss the Israelites?

I guess you simply don’t read the real news then... They’ve been reporting all of this, as responsible, unbiased news organizations always have, and always will. Again, Faux “News”, especially Hannity and Carlson, is an extremely biased, irresponsible organization. You seem to be the only one here who regularly touts them as responsible.

I have never said Fox news is responsible.

I give Carson a listen because he is distiller who is willing to learn and not afraid to lose an argument to any guest who appears on his segment.

Also he often takes positions which are very contrary to regular Fox agenda.

Today's NYT "The Daily" podcast covers the story in depth, as great, unbiased news organizations always do. The sort of journalism you will never find on Faux, especially from its extremist right wing blowhards like Carlson.

The natives come as the normal sane folks amongst the religiously annoying. Nothing sez Jesus like church bus kids in MAGA hats.

Nothing can overcome the glaring omission of the Israelites.

Right wing blow hard?
Some one who questions NATO, Vulture Capitalism, MIC, Globalization, the Market as a god, etc.

In the case of the Israelites, you are ascribing to malice was can be explained by the incompleteness of the first draft, soon corrected in the mainstream along with plenty of mea culpas.

All right wing populist demagogue blather. Refreshing compared to the Fox corporatist shill stuff, but not to be compared to serious analysis. In the end he points to nothing real, he's just in it for the eyeballs, which he can get by using the rest of Fox as a foil.
