As a former Catholic School student, Sister would have washed my mouth with soap for hours with what these students did. They need to be severely punished for their disrespect.

Who is doing what to Native Americans???

Nice question.

There is a video making the rounds of a kid getting face to face with a native American to insult and degrade him. The native American met him eye to eye without returning the insults.

You may be teaching academics in your school but you have failed to teach respect for other traditions and cultures....I have great grandchildren in church schools...their education is exceptional but most important they are taught to love and respect all people....their friends are from very diverse cultures, traditions and languages and they enjoy that diversity....apparently these students parents have failed to teach them basic human respect and acceptance so that does put the responsibility back on the church.....prayers that this issue is addressed immediately within your school system....they actually need to understand what incredible strength and courage they witnessed as this beautiful Native Elder stood strong and sang with a strong voice.....Frankie in Oklahoma

They have failed the fundamental aspect of being an American. They need to study civics again along with American history, starting with the US Constitution.

Is this thread drawing new members to a2k?

Penalizing kids today with anything physical will end up in a lawsuit.

Shame To The School, Shame To The Kids!

How upsetting, to see young people with no morals, or values for human kindness or respect for people of other cultures! Shame on the parents for raising these animals, and a Catholic School, who promotes this kind of behavior, how upsetting. God will have the last word, he didn’t put us on earth to hurt people. I have attended Catholic Schools all my life, and have never seen a school act like this, you have a lot of work to do at your School, it isn’t a good representation of the Catholic Church. The Native Americans have done a lot for this country, more then your juvenile delinquents. They all should have all been arrested.

I am 74 years of age. I attended Catholic Grammar School, Catholic High School, and Catholic College. I have a brother who is a Roman Catholic Priest. My parents brought me up and taught me morals and ethics and the nuns reinforced it. I am totally disgusted with these MAGA kids because their parents didn't teach them and apparently the school didn't teach them the words of Jesus, "Love one another with your whole heart and love thy neighbor as thyself." Apparently, the curriculum at this school is dysfunctional. Have these kids go live on a reservation for a month and do community service. I am disgusted with the Church.

We can add that image to this one in American lore.

Just an arrest is too good for them. There's no excuse for what they did. I understand too well the discrimination in this country as a minority who has lived through most of my youth with it such as, "go back to your own country." Ignorance has no limit.

I am wondering what kind of education you are giving these kids that they are so woefully ignorant and hateful! I as well as my family and friends have considered ending all donations and support for ALL catholic organizations unless these children are permanently removed from your roster, there is absolutely no excuse for this type of behavior, and any apologies fall flat!

Thanks, CI. They’ll hear from me.

Do you guys realize that this outrage porn is being debunked? I am not sure if it matters, but again the facts of what actually happened don't match the angry ideological narrative.

A national movement of angry liberals who are trying to get a 16 year old kid expelled seems a little excessive anyway... especially when most of the people in the angry mob haven't taken the time to read the actual facts.

Has anyone here even taken the time to read his side of the story before calling for his head? (There... I thought not).

How would this story have been different if the Native American man had been wearing the MAGA hat, and the white teenager had been wearing a pink "pussy" hat?

This is about political ideology, the facts don't matter.

Yes, facts do matter absolutely. Trying to twist the story is only a cheap shot at the reality of the situation in this country called bigotry. It's obvious to most people without twisting the story. BTW, I'm not the one to give you a thumb's down.

You didn't answer my question.... did you read the kids side of the story?
