COVINGTON, Kentucky, January 21, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – A Catholic bishop has issued a letter of condemnation against the Catholic students of his diocese who were at the center of a media firestorm this weekend over what turned out to be false and slanderous reports that the students had mocked Native Americans outside the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.
Bishop Roger Joseph Foys of Covington, Kentucky, along with the Covington Catholic High School administration succumbed to the mainstream media's leftist spin of the Friday, January 19 altercation, issuing a joint statement of condemnation.
“We condemn the actions of the Covington Catholic High School students towards Nathan Phillips specifically, and Native Americans in general, Jan. 18, after the March for Life, in Washington, D.C.,” the January 19 statement read.
“We extend our deepest apologies to Mr. Phillips. This behavior is opposed to the Church’s teachings on the dignity and respect of the human person.”
The bishop and school administration said the matter was “being investigated.” They added that they would “take appropriate action, up to and including expulsion.”

What would the good bishop have had the students to have done?
Apparently Bishop Foys is not particularly interested in the truth.
Why is the Bishop attempting to silence young, male students?
Ezekiel 34- Shepards who leave their charges to the wolves.
O/T Can anyone please tell me the name of the law that allows South Americans the right to remain in the states while they await a “trial date”?
“Why is the Bishop attempting to silence young, male students?”
Catholic Bishops have been doing that for decades. Usually after they buggered them.
This is no different. No doubt he’ll offer to counsel them privately in his quarters.

Looks like the diocese has an anti-white Bishop. How nice.
Proper corrective action would include an apology to the boys, and firing the principal.
I would be pleased to have those young folks at Calvary Baptist. I would support their pro life stand. I would not demean the MAGA message. The Catholics I know would support them. Those administrators and political priests need to read some of the prophets.
Just why the Roman church is losing members. That and the groping and molestation goes on. Piousness had been replaced by perversion.
Cowards.
Despicable.
March with the abortionists.
It’s what Jesus would’ve wanted after all - right?
Don’t bother him with facts. His mind is made up. I wonder if he would have sat on the board that condemned Yashua?
I hope these young men are the future for the Church.
The Catholic Curch needs to be saved.
Booting out Bergoglio would be a good start.
I am betting instruction is coming from the Vatican it self on this. remember it is pope Francis.
I think I’d pull my kids out of the school before they could possibly be expelled.
The hierarchy of the Catholic Church is rotten to the core.
