If they're altering the facts of a story to damage an individual, absolutely yes. They should be sued into oblivion.
LOL, well there goes the Trump campaign's advertising strategy.
Orrr how about the ADULT native americans behaving like morons at kids. Good god you fucks lost your minds. The kid nothing other than stand there.
Facecrime? You fascist!Nobody edited that arrogant smirk onto the kid's face.
At this point his strategy appears to be simply saying "prove it", and almost unbelievably, it seems to be working.LOL, well there goes the Trump campaign's advertising strategy.
My Mom taught me that it costs nothing to move out of the way of someone, even if you had the right to be standing where you were. She also taught me that no matter how someone behaves, you don't use their bad actions to justify your own in response. She also taught me to respect those that are older than me, even if they are assholes. If our son had done what this kid did and I saw that picture in the paper with that look on his face, when he got home his ass would be grass and I would be the lawnmower.
No, instead his parents sued because their poor little boy made the news for being an asshole.
no you twit, it was the adult who came up to him and started banging a drum and screaming in his face. yes the kids is the victim here and shame on you for defending the puce of shit man who put the kid in the spotlight to begin with.
Honestly we should not be attacking him for his conduct at the rally, but his conduct afterwards was absolutely reprehensible. We should all agree on that?
I love how the people who constantly complain about frivolous lawsuits have no problem with someone attempting to sue for three quarters of a billion dollars because they think the media reported on them wrong.
It's good to see that you agree the kid should not have been attacked for his conduct at the rally. Now, why do you think his conduct afterwards was absolutely reprehensible? Do you think this high school kid masterminded the lawsuit effort? He doesn’t look that smart to me. Or do you think his parents, attorneys, the school, the GOP and others are using him as a political pawn like he was used in the incident.
Please. They were just entitled teenage jerks who weren't properly supervised. Their parents are apparently jerks, too, for trying to cash in on the WaPo.
If my children had ever acted like that I sure as Hell wouldn't be suing anybody over it. I don't have the chutzpah.
Heh..."Spin", "doctored videos" - not surprising - But, alas, reality is a touch different.
Had this kid and his parents released a statement regretting his involvement in this incident, asked to be left alone to resume his life as a child and just went away, the kid would have my full support. Instead his parents hired a Republican PR firm founded by Mitch McConnell's former aide, made the rounds in the right wing media to become the victim and poster boy for identity politics, and went on to attempt to cash in and sue the media outlets that covered the news. But, once again, reality is different.
Fortunately the judge in this case was not buying an attack on free speech and the right to report the news. Hopefully the other lawsuits will meet the same fate.
Plenty of schools have field trips to DC. When most schools do it, it's so the kids can visit museums and monuments and be exposed to other educational opportunities. Maybe these christian schools and parents will think twice about busing a bunch of underage, immature children out of state to harass women at an abortion rally during a government shutdown loaded with unhappy protesters, ultimately to be used as pawns for the schools political causes.
no you twit, it was the adult who came up to him and started banging a drum and screaming in his face. yes the kids is the victim here and shame on you for defending the puce of shit man who put the kid in the spotlight to begin with.
Time to revive this thread! Nick Sandmann had his suit against the Washington Post dismissed by a federal court judge.
I guess they never taught reading comprehension to Nathan in that fancy school of his. If I was his parents I would ask for a refund but I don't think his parents are that intelligent either.
So you support adults going around trying to intimidate and racially harass teenagers? I guess they were asking for it? I hope you're never on a jury for a rape case.
Insufferably smug.
...
If Sandmann wins his appeal, will you denigrate your own reading comprehension?
I thought you labeled people "socialist."Facecrime? You fascist!
I do, but socialism doesn’t necessarily have a negative connotation.I thought you labeled people "socialist."
Not that it matters.
Yeah, you sound very concerned.I do, but socialism doesn’t necessarily have a negative connotation.
@Jhhnn’s facecrime concern is simply Orwellian.
I am also glad we’re now celebrating that a judge was willing to excuse the media for misrepresenting facts to advance a click driven narrative.
Or you could choose not to be a dickhead.If I'm standing somewhere that I'm allowed to be and someone gets in my personal space and bangs a drum in my face I might smirk at him too. Or get physical. You don't get to do that to people.
Not really, but I appreciate yours. You are correct. A bunch of alarmist whiners passing judgment on some kid is not the same as charging someone with a crime.Yeah, you sound very concerned.
I happen to note that no one charged the kid with a crime, so your point is pretty well undermined there.
