    I should be incredulous that you won't hold Sandmann to the same standard you hold Hogg, but I know enough about your hackery to think "oh well, more of the same."

    Since your two brain cells are having a tough time putting all this together: Parkland High School, 17 dead, 17 injured v. confrontation near the Lincoln Memorial, no dead, no injured.

    David Hogg, hiding in closet from active shooter v. Nick Sandmann staring at a Native American beating a drum.

    You are beyond hope if you think Hogg has no right to speak out about his experience. You're as bad as all those RW fake news sites who defamed him, it's people like you who keep the lies going.
    Where the fuck did I say it was 'illegal'???

    Where did I state he has 'no right to speak about his experience'??? You fucking moron. You just continue creating straw men.

    You said "Hogg lied, spouted brain dead liberal talking points, and put himself into the public arena."

    What was Hogg's lie?

    You criticized him for what you call "spouting brain dead talking points" and I said it's not illegal. So why did you bring it up as if it was a reason for him to be defamed by RW fake news?

    You criticized him for becoming an activist in the public arena. Why is that a problem with you?

    Your twit Sandmann and his greedy family just put themselves in the public arena in a very big way. Sandmann was yesterday's news until this happened, nobody was giving him a second thought anymore. Maybe that's why his family hired a PR firm, to keep him, his greed and his grievances in the news.

    You can't dispute the fact that Hogg's and his friends' experiences with a shooter were orders of magnitude worse than Sandmann's face off with Phillips, so you have to reach for phony reasons to trash him.

    There is no equivalence. Sandmann suffered nothing compared to what the Parkland kids suffered.

    Well, until the next shiny thing comes along, then he'll be tossed away like a used Kleenex.

    2) Sandman has the right to enter a public space and stand still. If he gets mocked for getting in an old man's face who's singing, then too fucking bad.... we have the right to mock him as much as you have the right to mock Hogg.

    Sandmann is the sissy boy who wants to make $$ off his hurt feelz. The other kid... he's more of a man than Sandmann will ever be.
    I see that the bowel woman has to not only lie, but also try to support a lie; because Sandman NEVER got in anyone's face..

    He was standing there and the "old man" got in his face.

    You really are a cunt, aren't you.

    I would have walked away. That is how you defuse a situation. That is what a religious person is supposed to do. I don't think smirking in his face for a few minutes was a peaceful way to act.

    And walking away would then have the liberal snowflakes screaming that Sandman was being disrespectful to him.

    Why are our resident JPP liberals acting like a teenager is supposed to have more maturity then a Native American ELDER??

    A high school student from Covington, Kentucky, at the center of a videotaped incident at the Lincoln Memorial involving a Native American activist sued the Washington Post for defamation on Tuesday, claiming the newspaper "vilified" him because he is white.

    The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Kentucky by Covington Catholic High School student Nicholas Sandmann, 16, seeks $250 million in damages - saying that was the amount Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.com and the world's richest person, paid for the Post in 2013.

    "The Post wrongfully targeted and bullied Nicholas because he was the white, Catholic student wearing a red 'Make America Great Again' souvenir cap on a school field trip to the Jan. 18 March for Life in Washington, D.C.," the lawsuit claims.

    Sandmann "was unexpectedly and suddenly confronted by Nathan Phillips ... a known Native American activist, who beat a drum and sang loudly within inches of his face," the suit said.

    Representatives for the Washington Post did not immediately respond to a request by Reuters for comment.

    In a photo that went viral from the incident Sandmann, wearing a red baseball cap emblazoned with U.S. President Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan, is seen standing face to face with Phillips, staring at him with a smile while Phillips sings and plays his drum.

    The videotaped incident sparked outrage on social media.

    A private investigation firm retained by Covington Diocese in Park Hills, Kentucky found no evidence the teenagers provoked a confrontation in a report released last week

    The students, who were in Washington to attend the March for Life anti-abortion rally, were met at the Lincoln Memorial by offensive statements from members of the Black Hebrew Israelites, the report said.

    The investigation also determined that the students did not direct any racist or offensive comments toward Phillips, the Native American activist, who waded into their group, although several performed a “tomahawk chop” to the beat of his drum.

    Phillips claimed in a separate video that he heard the students chanting “build that wall,” during the encounter, a reference to Trump's pledge to build a barrier along the U.S. border with Mexico.

    The investigators said they found no evidence of such a chant and that Phillips did not respond to multiple attempts to contact him.

    Dead end at 16?
    Are you feeling remorseful because your own life has become a dead end?
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

People don't have to file lawsuits just because they were pissed off about something. This kid was yesterday's news until the lawsuit.

    The RW media, which is the only media conservatives take seriously, produced fake news and defamed David Hogg and he's not suing them.

    My point is that every bad thing that happens to a person isn't grounds for a lawsuit.
