I had to wait until 3pm to check into my hotel in Arlington area; I wanted to stroll through the Mall a bit, from the NM to LM. I parked my truck at the NPS area and payed the associated toll meter and stuck my ticket in the dashboard. I passed a group of these MAGA Kids, around two hours or so before this incident. There was a large group of Native Americans speaking through a mic and there was many others dancing and chanting, PEACEFULLY. When I passed by a larger group of MAGA kids, same ones from Covington, they jeered at me when I snickered, in a fun way, at their hats, ignorant, self righteous, condescending, self important, privileged smirks and comments and they mocked my snicker at them until I was long away...but before that, long before that, other smaller patches of their larger group, were making sure they got the eyes of EVERY SINGLE person that walked by them on the mall, up to the first steps of the LM. They WANTED a confrontation, they were all egging each other on, they WANTED to have people negatively comment on their hats, its why they had them on, its why they were in pacts, hunting, its why they are all guilty, not just Nick, but the entire lot, including their chaperones; they wanted to incite a riot, and nearly did. <br /><br />I didnt think twice about my interaction with them, until a few days after I got back to the Boston area. I worked from DC West into deep parts of WV and I am a yank through and through. I love it there. Then I got home and saw this story. I have no political opinion one way or the other, and I don't believe in a deity, (just an FYI), so I'm telling you this story to benefit no party, and I could care less who is in office, so my details to you are not bias in any way; its just the truth.<br /><br />I'm disgusted to think this kid could bank millions in a settlement, because the news had it CORRECT the first time to call him out, and they went and apologized to this cretin? Sick, sick sick. <br /><br />His friends cheered him, he became an icon at his school, a symbol of hope against those they mocked and laughed at, and in this time, in this day and age, in this crest of wave of ignorance sweeping our youth, it will only inspire others to mock those that deserve so much more than what these disgusting, sad, trite, privileged SOB's gave to the folks that were speaking that day on the steps of the LM.KASnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-60534277892927216172019-01-23T15:23:23.715-05:002019-01-23T15:23:23.715-05:00My grandfather was born in 1900 and he was poor an...My grandfather was born in 1900 and he was poor and white from the sticks of Pennsylvania. He was a very nice guy when he was sober, but he drank a lot and he would get mean. He never, so far as I know, punched a human being, but he used to break the kitchen chairs slamming them around while hollering about all the bad guys who were evil and corrupt and ruining America. When I was a kid I used to think he was a moron, but then I got older and I realized that he never, ever, uttered the N-word (which for a white guy of his time and place, is remarkable) and the people that he hated with a white-hot passion where: Republicans and Catholics. From what has come out about the evil of at the Catholic church sheltering pedophiles and child rapists, and about the Republicans since the turn of this century, I think the guy must have been a genius.<br /><br />My grandfather would have happily broken a kitchen chair against the back of those smug little Covington bastards, and me -- I'm my grandfather's daughter.Vivian Swifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12198077488226047493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-9516773823499148462019-01-22T18:04:39.023-05:002019-01-22T18:04:39.023-05:00I've seen some footage of these smug little pr...I've seen some footage of these smug little pricks harassing women on the streets of DC prior to this "confrontation."

The videos match up exactly with what he said.<br /><br />Don't let people think for you, no matter what side they are on. <br /><br />BTW, I am an atheist, and I am opposed to religious bigotry. Unlike too many I believe that includes all religions, and the lack of it. Christians are not exempt from this. I see no difference between hating a person because they are Jewish, Christian, or Pagan. <br /><br />I also want to address one of the comments here. It is something I have seen repeatedly, so obviously put out by one of the sheep who can't form their own words, similar to the chant, "It's okay to punch a NAZI!"<br /><br />But who are the Nazi's?<br /><br />"Anyone you want to punch."<br /><br />Let's not pretend we are fighting hate by promoting it.The Magehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11300377830186132675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12171673.post-14400869618862675972019-01-21T19:10:49.297-05:002019-01-21T19:10:49.297-05:00You people are idiots.
