so what should he have done?
you were not there but yet you refuse any possibility he did nothing wrong.
you're digging for something and this isnt like you.
if there was a real story there NBC wouldnt be makibg shit up.
Well I do agree that this is a nothing story. The first post I made about this was that it is an overblown story about nothing of importance. As far as the kid. If that were my kid I’d be very disappointed in how he acted. I would have hoped he would be the bigger person, take the ego out of it and let the drummer pass or just walk away. Deescalate not provoke. With that said if he got suspended or even punished by the school I’d also be pissed. I don’t think it was a serious offense but I also don’t think he was an innocent victim or a stand up guy for staring down an old Indian
the drummer got in his face and was NOT TRYING to pass. just stay in his face.
Ok Ice, you blame the drummer and applaud the kid. I’ll put responsibility on both of them. Either way, I don’t really give a shit what two attention seekers do in a protest. If it were my friend playing the drum I would have pulled him away and told him to stop being a douchebag. If it were my kid staring him down I would have pulled him away and told him to stop being a douchebag. But that’s me. Frankly it embarrassing that this incident has become such a big issue. We must be really bored in this country
ok - now *you* are seeing things in binary terms only.
i never said the kid was blameless. from my point of view i don't think he is but all i know comes from what we see in a media none of us really trust.
by the hour we found out more about this "vietnam vet" (who never went to vietnam, was spat on by a hippie when he returned, and was a refrigerator tech when not AWOL, but that's a different story).
all i ever asked you was for 2 things.
1) show me where you're seeing him act up and be the one to get in the other mans face.
2) if there was any potential scenario where the kid did nothing wrong, to you
you're now telling me how i feel about it when that was never really my question.
for some reason this one is sounding personal to you. no idea why but it's kinda the first time i've seen you ignore not 1 but 2 questions i've asked several times to better understand your viewpoint.
since this seems to be bugging you, i'll stop asking.
