I watch the videos and the young man in the red hat (that Phillips tried unsuccessfully to provoke) was AWESOME. He stood his ground in a DIGNIFIED manner, was RESPECTFUL and REFUSED TO BE INTIMIDATED. His parents did a commendable job of raising him, IMHO.
If you watch the whole episode on one of the longer videos available it is clear that the students are a well behaved group of young people. The adult protestors around them not so much. The kids endured a lot of rude language aimed at them coming from the adults.
