Has organized religion failed us?

I hope the kid is expelled. Shame on the school and the chaperones for even bringing them to a Women's March. They clearly weren't going there for the right reasons. The kid's mother said that he was assaulted by "black Muslims" and that the Native American was intimidating the little punk with the drum. She defended his actions. That's why he has grown up to be such a racist, entitled little a-hole like she is.

Not to mention the utter irony of those little creeps yelling "Build the wall!" to a Native American--the only one who ISN'T an immigrant. I agree with you--they need to do some serious community service on one of the many impoverished reservations.

The religion has nothing to do with this behavior. Those bullies would be the same if they were Muslim or Orthodox or no matter what. The parents have failed here, not the religion. Anyway religions are only here to spread hate, not to help.

sad story there.Yes the kid should be and the chaperones reprimanded

That is very, very sad but I don't think all the blame can be laid on the school.

Charity begins at home, as the Christian saying goes. These kids were taught this behavior and it was encouraged. Their chaperones need to be reprimanded as well.

I saw this. Makes me shake my head and they still do not see the problem. Why would you want to do that? Its starting a beef with people who never start a beef. The only thing I can think of is they mad because Native Americans usually tell the truth and that goes against what they are trying to do. Thanks for bible study though, been a while since did one of those. Lord I needed it. Pun intended.

the MAGA hats seemed designed to suck out brain cells but then even putting one on suggests it has already done its work

Living not too far from the school (it's in Park Hills, Kentucky, a suburb of Cincinnati, about 100 miles up the road from me), I've been keeping an eye on this story. My outrage has only grown....over the fact that that is a completely fabricated story. Cincinnati TV stations and newspapers have watched the entire two-hour video and have concluded that in context none of the things claimed ever happened. Meanwhile, this formerly great nation of ours, which used to pride itself on "rule of law and order" and "innocent until proven guilty," has returned to the old KKK days of lynch mobs, using social media as the "judge and jury." There have been calls on Twitter for this student to be physically assaulted (with one musician promising autographed copies of all his albums to the person who "punches him in the (cashews, almonds, and pecans)"). The thing is that many people will believe this without ANY investigation of the facts simply because the kid was wearing a MAGA hat. It's a lot like that misquote from Sister Souljah about "kill white people" back in 1992. That IS NOT, in context, what she said, but that's what everybody "thinks" she said because that's how it was reported.

I have heard a lot more of that sine rump got elected president. They are now allowed to hate and call themselves christians. I would have smacked him.

@TheHorse @LadyDuck The boys are all in their puberty, the worst stage in the life of a male. Why is there no grown-up person in sight who could have ended this disgraceful situation? I'd punish the boy - ban him from coming to school for some weeks - and then send him to an Indian reservation for a prolonged time to do community work.

Unfortunately this is how our young are now being raised, I am Catholic but I will tell you, the kids that go to Catholic schools are no better than the ones that go to public schools. I used to know some of them and some are really terrible, I wondered why they were there. Kids these ages feel they are entitled, I am not sure to what but they need a good swift kick in their butts.

Are they not taught 'history' or past events or whatever?

I do not know what this story is about, but the hatred of young people comes from the family.

That is sad that there are still people who still could not understand that we can live peacefully with our neighbors despite the differences in our race, color and religion and so many things. It saddens me that they are Catholics because I know they are teaching unversal brotherhood with everyone Catholics and non Catholics alike.

When a pack of wolves are hungry, everything is either "something to eat" or "something that's blocking the food" ... even if you've 'trained' them to feign etiquette in order to get fed.

Highly disrespectful and demeaning the efforts of those who made sacrifices for the welfare of society putting their own lives at risk. Obviously, a picture of an entitlement society that does not augur well. Our political leaders set a bad example too by behaving in such a way anything goes - siva

What caught my attention was the smug look of the student in front of the Native American and I wonder if he'll still feel that way when in the future, he will be part of the white minority as other race and ethnic group change and reshape the US demography. This is the reason for Trump's MAGA appeal. Regarding religion, it's history of scandal after scandal speaks for itself.

where are you from ?? what is your religion??

With numerous religions in the world which one should we follow? Organised religions have certainly failed me and I have no use for them but that doesn't mean I'm a bad person. I try to be honest, kind and helpful to other people and I don't think anyone of any religion could find fault with that
