Well ain't the left special? Not to mention, if you look at the pic with the article, it sure looks like some sort of (OMG!) confederate mascot on the school signage. Team name or something? The Johnny Rebs?

Obama demanded that liberals “get in their face” when opposed by the Americans.

Is this an over-reaction? The issue isn’t going to go away in one day. Might as well carry on.

The Left have become true Savages.

The Democrats are so brave, threatening children and preventing them from attending school....wait, haven’t Democrats done this in the past? Arkansas, IIRC.

God has given the students, and what are likely cowardly administrators, at this Covington High School the opportunity to be courageous, and to witness their faith for the good of all.

I hope they don’t fail.

ter·ror·ist /ˈterərəst/ noun: terrorist; plural noun: terrorists 1. a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

These people are terrorists under both the dictionary definition and any reasonable connotation of that word. The correct response is obvious. The world needs fewer terrorists.

Another example of leftist tolerance, acceptance, and celebrating diversity. The left is soooo tolerant of others that they have made threats against kids to the point that schools have to close due to safety concerns.

The best part? All this leftist rage generating these threats is based upon a lie. Even better, it is now widely known to be a lie. Yet the leftist rage continues - they don't care about facts, only their beliefs. Pathetic and disgusting.

If I remember right (typical lib excuse) didn’t the school blast the kids for their actions on the mall. I would love to see this PRIVATE school go out of business period.

Nah, it will always be the overwhelmingly more exercised first. Harshly worded posts and all.

The diocese that controls that school said they won’t apologize for their first response about the kids actions. Which is total BS. BIG lesson here for some of the kids who “get it”.

I was hoping for a much different headline. “Antifa Punks Learn about Stand Your Ground - The Hard way”

Conservatives nationwide are celebrating the long-awaited news that several pantifa (phrase ripped off from some other commenter) punks are clinging to life after the idiots dared to take their sh*t show to a state with a proper “Stand Your Ground” law. Local resident R.B. Jenkins celebrated his role in the mayhem. “I seen them girls in pajamas, bout 50 or so with bats, chains, pepper spray... all screechin and a hissin, tryna attack a bunch a them school kids. That's when me and a few other fellers gave em some free manners lessons courtesy of Smith and Wesson. I seen more than a few of em get ventilated, fore they all jumped on that hippie bus and tried to high tail it outta here. Worse drivin I ever saw. Bus was weavin and swervin, ran off the road bout a quarter mile up the road here, and smashed right into that farmer's septic tank. Seeing all them ladies running around slipping and fallin in all that sh*t made my day. Been chucklin all day.”

So this is a diocesen school and not an independent catholic school. For hold back the donations on Sunday. Only way.

From what I’ve read, yes. For certain, I can’t say.

Per nytimes the diocese prints names by school of all students attending march in Cinncinati enquirer effincluding minors without permission.

And daily at end of pledge of allegiance they add for unborn and born.
