[Hoot Gibson]

A group of high school boys were subjected to racist and homophobic slurs by adult protestors during a visit to our nation's capital. How did the big national story become about how disrespectful a few of the boys were to a group of native Americans (people who immigrated here from Asia long ago) when an elderly protestor decided to walk into the group of boys and bang a drum loudly a few inches from one of the boys' chins?

It is both amazing and sad to watch how the left has declared open season on white American boys in this country how many white adults have joined in the hunt.

I have been as critical of Donald Trump over the past several years as any member of this website, but even if the CovCath boys had all been chanting "Build that wall!" and even if all of them had been wearing MAGA hats, how would advocating national security on federal property make them racists?

"Mr." Phillips had no business harassing a group of kids with his drum.

My rights end just short of the tip of your nose and Phillips and his drum was well beyond the limit of his right of free speech. He is lucky that the CovCath kid showed restraint. I am not sure that when I was his age I would not have taken his drum and flung it like a frisbee.
