Sweet knowing they were BOTH trying to calm each other down! If the boy removed hat in respect of the elder would be better. If your going to a peaceful gathering wearing a MAGA hat you are looking for trouble! The peaceful Anarchist way is to talk or sing to those argressive,calling names. Not namecall back but get to know that person. I hear allot of anti-muslim talk lately, I ask those people- has a Muslim hurt you directly!? I doubt that, you could talk to them. Don't let media hype sour a sweet moment calling people evil and all of this. I agree with the Elder - there has never been walls or dungeons on these lands for thousands of years so why now! Say NO to the wall and to the prison system.

The problem is the media made and manipulated the news and put out a story that undoubtedly harmed a young man's life and now are being forced to recant.
We can all agree that they definitely showed tolerance listening to the RACIST Black Israelite groups for hours before this incident, and I honestly cannot say that I trust the Native Elders narrative he was dishonest at best, conniving and manipulative at worst and was the aggressor.

Sum it up
The media — some of our nation’s top newsrooms — really got played on this one, early on. You had some bizarre black activists who were the worst players in this whole episode, but who walked away without anyone criticizing them. Then there were the white Catholic kids who got vilified by everyone until inconvenient truths emerged. And then you had a Native elder who got to spin the narrative in front of the TV cameras until video showed that his version wasn’t quite the whole story.
If Phillips wanted to stop a confrontation, why didn’t he march over and bang his drum in the direction of the Israelite guys?
The Why question that also should be answered, Who were the adults, and Who were the kids?"
Very fair point, and I agree with you wholeheartedly on such. But, I think what Dan is highlighting is the "hysteria" regarding this contrived event. These events are "engineered" if you will to divide us. These events are tailored to evoke primal emotions from us and pit us against each other. The reason should be clear - to divide us so that we do not unite against the true enemy of humanity.
My gut feel is that this entire scenario was engineered to do just that. Whether or not the players themselves be aware of that individually- the MSM narrative certainly is. And to that point, I think Dan is obligated to point out the contrivance by breaking down the facts.
