They were not taunting indigenous elders. If anything, the indigenous elders were taunting them.
I remember my first day of high school. Our students came from all parts of the city. We were told emphatically that wearing our uniforms, we represented our school. We had better not be seen misbehaving or disrespecting anyone as we went out in public, on the street, on the buses. We were to be on our best behaviour, representing Christ, our parents and our school.Wearing Maga hats is incompatible with wearing Catholic high school sweatshirts. Acting the way that they did, not matter how they find themselves in that situation, was wrong.
If they made the choice to stand as representatives of President Trump instead of ambassadors of Christ, they have the right to their political speech. I can say most Catholic teachers I know would not have allowed those hats, at least if they were representing the school, or any anti-Trump emblem as well. It muddies the waters. And as far as that boy just smiling, that is not the way I, as a parent see it.CATHOLIC high school boys wearing MAGA hats, in Washington for a major PRO-LIFE event.
For a hate crime to exist, there has to actually be a crime. Was someone assaulted that I have not read about? In the United States, there is not a law against hate speech, thanks be to God. At least not yet.Telling White people to go back to Europe is acceptable racism, therefore the DOJ will not investigate this hate crime caught on tape.
My patriotism never allowed me to see American in any other way. I always thought the slogan more anti-American, but that is just me. But that is neither here or there. A red cap with that slogan has meaning. I think you would have to be obtuse not to see the link to Trump-ism.I see Make America Great Again as meaning just that. But then I still recite the Pledge of Allegiance, too.
Catholics wearing MAGA hats at a pro-life march: I guess the media sees that as the trifecta of evil.Yes, we have been set up to be fools by the liberal mainstream media.
