Covington Catholic, rage and civil war

[Michie]

*You are in the Catholic forum*

The incident with the boys from Covington Catholic at March for Life echoes ominously in our culture. It indicates the fragility of our society and the divisions that run deep in our country. It reveals the levels of rage and blame in our society and there are several problems with what happened: First of all, the mainstream media jumped on the story and promoted the anti-Catholic...

The media could give a you know what about the truth. I knew something was amiss because generally speaking Catholic school boys and girls are usually brought up well and decent kids.

The second link goes into a lot of interesting detail.

I saw the 2nd video. It was clear to me that older adults were attacking the youngs boys in an attempt to illicit a response.

Did you read where this elder has someone if a confrontational history himself?

Yes

 

[eastcoast_bsc]

Yes the elder s seem to be antagonizing the boys. I mean these are young boys not necessarily savvy activist types. The mayor should be ashamed fir his knee jerk reaction.

I'm tired of the way these news organizations skew everything favoring the narrative they want to get out there. The whole thing is just ugly and unnecessary. But you got one side screaming at these white kids to go back to Europe, etc. The Black Hebrews spewing their bile. And HS kids and their idea of being challenged. Everyone, and I mean everyone in this situation and the biased and dishonest reporting of this situation should be ashamed. It's propaganda. The knee jerk reactions and using these situations to further their ideology is just utterly sickening imo.

Michie, it is not going to stop. They would destroy these boys if they had a chance.they have no moral compass.

I grew submerged in Catholicism and half of all my friends and peers were Catholic educated. I knew as soon as I read the story that it smacked of bias and outright lies. Catholic boys usually have decent moral compasses.

And the fact that teenagers are not exactly mature. The brain is not even fully developed yet. I think between all the groups, they felt challenged. I'm not making excuses but seriously, they were not the adults in the situation.

I saw video of Black Israelites, a group claiming that Africans are the lost tribes of Israel, were harassing the boys before the Native Americans came over, that video was taken down but even if it was not I could not post it here for the language the Black Israelites used

The boys started school cheers to drown out the hate speech that was being directed at them (both white and black students)
After that the Native Americans walked into the middle of the group of students

I have tried correcting people on Facebook but I think I have lost some friends over this

It made the news over here, on the other side of the Pacific. You've only got to blow your nose the wrong way these days for someone to make an issue out of it all round the world.

Here's the missing context behind the video of students surrounding a Native American drummer

Ridiculous leftist media. Why did they pick on some Catholic boys for some behaviours that are typical of normal boys?? If those boys were from Greenpeace or Planned Parenthood, then they'd be ignored.

They were not, they just participated in the Pro life March, perhaps that's why.

I find it disturbing that the school offered an apology so quickly, before all the facts were out. I feel like an injustice was committed not only toward the boys, but the toward the Faith as well. The school used the Church's moral teaching to cover their backsides.

This shows the school leadership is weak.

Lax news: Catholic teens, plus Native elder, plus Hebrew Israelites equals volatile video mess

 

[Michie]

What is truth?

After initial outrage, claims of racism, clearer details of exchange emerge
