CCP would be a logical link. Connection with Turkish origin does not instill automatic respect for science.

Thanks for the Communist observation.

I don’t understand how a Movie Theater would make any money on this film. “Honey, do you want to go see the movie about that MAGA smirk kid?”.

Perhaps it will be a financial bust. 🙂

No, it wouldn't, at least not directly. An association with some local org like the communist front, American Indian Movement, is far more likely. Now AIM, as an org, could well be working with foreign powers like Russia or communist China (CCP). Russia and China were/are both very much behind the chaos in the streets here, helping to instigate the unrest via propaganda through social media and elsewhere.

It's not even that. It's a nervous grimace, it's what teens will do when confronted with something or someone dramatic that they have no experience in. It's the default look they will get when they don't know what to do, what to say, how to react - boys and girls both will do it. Anyone who's had to work around a lot of youngsters will recognize what that is and why it happens. That's what happened when creepy old drummer dude got in his face - Sandmann's brain locked on how to handle it, so out came the grimace. I knew it the second I saw that. He's not some devious KKK guy, he was just being a kid and they're picking on him for it.

Quote from this screed...

“The Boys in Red Hats is honest about its biases and intentions while taking an admirably even-handed approach to its subject, and in many respects, it gets at the foundational assumptions and opinions that breed intolerant tribalism, and individuals like Sandmann and his MAGA ilk.”

I guess the Daily Beast feels like getting sued.

Are they comparing Boys in Red Hats to Men in Brown Shirts?

Love how the article makes mention of how he sued the media but no mention that they settled the cases (Washington Post and CNN).

O’Biden and Hunter Biden are both bought. There is no denying that.

This whole game is about who’s will be the Global Currency. And is a battle between freedom and slavery (CCP is slavery production and the ComDems and GOPe are OK with that). Worst part, The CCP already owns huge interest in US agriculture and are buying up land all over. Financed by slave labor. That suits the Globalists and Leftists. They don’t care.

If the CCP wins it will kill the USA and away go the useful idiots right down the drain. And the rest of us with them. Unless we stop it or break away from it. Or both.

This is run a a planned script from a powerful International Cabal. It is anti Christian, anti American, anti Capitalist and anti Freedom.

Could not be clearer.

Good collection.

Thanks.

I noticed after I posted post 7 that one of the images had a Getty label on it. That was probably why the post was removed.

In any case, here it is again without that particular photo, as good and telling a photo as it was...

_________________________________

[Nicholas] Sandmann — who was accused of being a bigot and racist, along with his other classmates — finally came forward Sunday to defend himself in a statement, saying the whole story had been misconstrued. Hours later, more video emerged showing how the Covington students were the ones initially being accosted.

In fact, an entirely different group of protesters — who called themselves members of the Black Hebrew Israelites group — had been taunting and shouting hateful things at the teens for no apparent reason other than their professed fandom of President Trump.

“Y’all dirty-ass little crackers, your day is coming,” one of the group can be heard saying on video.

That caused multiple media outlets and public figures to shift their stances on the Covington controversy. Countless people have deleted tweets and other statements made on social media blasting the students as well.

“It is clear from new footage and additional accounts that there is more to this story than the original video captured,” said March for Life organizers on Sunday, just one day after calling the students’ behavior “reprehensible.” ...”

Nick Sandmann has excellent, effective lawyers. I’m sure they will carefully screen the film and take appropriate action.

Nick is a public figure now (not by choice) but even public figures can sue for libel and defamation under certain circumstances. I hope the film’s creator understands the magnitude of the liability he is creating for himself, the studios, distributors, theaters, etc.

Yes, it would have been better to just let the matter go. But these people are so full of themselves that they have to do spiteful acts no matter how damaging they are to themselves or others.

From 1984 (the Democrats' instruction manual):
It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen. The smallest thing could give you away. A nervous tic, an unconscious look of anxiety, a habit of muttering to yourself--anything that carried with it the suggestion of abnormality, of having something to hide. In any case, to wear an improper expression on your face (to look incredulous when a victory was announced, for example) was itself a punishable offence. There was even a word for it in Newspeak: FACECRIME, it was called.

That entire paragraph completely contradicts itself.

Yes, it is still a great collection. Illustrates how totally deceptive the media is.
