[Edit: False] Video of US teens taunting Native American draws fire

I really did not know the ol' AIM thing was still a real thing . Came out of the inner city in Minn in the 60's . I see no where that there is a member list for Indiana or Kentucky .
 
This is a little off topic but is that all people do in DC is protest? I rarely ever see a single group protesting yet in DC it seems they're all over the place. Just in that one incident there were at least 3 groups of protesters.
Its where they keep all the cameras.
:frog:
 
Looks like Danke did something after all.

Wen I was younger there was a group called american indian center of Indiana . It had leadership made up of non native midwesterners , some E Warren type dog tribe cherokees and some apaches from progressive western cities and some white people . I doubt any of them though would be protesting any Ky school kids .
 
Are you kidding. It's no fun until there is a chart.

I have left two messages with a local station about the disgraceful reporting of this story. I tried to call the school to voice support. Only a busy signal.

Life outside the internet, you know.
 
Well in all fairness I think the above might inspire the kid to video himself punching his own face.
 
Twitter has suspended an account that helped a widely publicized encounter between Catholic high school school students and a Native American man go viral.
CNN Business reported on Monday that Twitter took the step after receiving questions from the news network about the account.
The account, @2020fight, posted a minute-long video of the interaction on Friday night with the caption, "this MAGA loser gleefully bothering a Native American protester at the Indigenous Peoples March."


According to a cached version of the video seen by CNN, the post garnered at least 2.5 million views and at least 14,400 retweets. The network notes that the partial video of the incident had been previously posted on Instagram, but that the caption from @2020fight helped promote it to widespread attention.
@2020fight claims to belong to a California schoolteacher. However its profile photo is of a blogger based in Brazil, according to CNN, which noted that Twitter's guidelines explicitly prohibit "fake and misleading accounts."
"Deliberate attempts to manipulate the public conversation on Twitter by using misleading account information is a violation of the Twitter Rules," a Twitter spokesperson told The Hill.

Pure CYA, this just got so big they had to do something to counter the optics. The people running Twitter don't care if one or more of these kids get killed.
