The Independent is reporting that the mother of the boy filmed jeering Native American veteran and musician Nathan Phillips was "provoked" by "Black muslims", and that Mr. Phillips was "drumming in his face," and this her poor son was justified in his reprehensible actions.
The unnamed mother of the unnamed Covington Catholic High School student, I'm an email to the website Heavy.com claimed;
"Did you hear the names of the people where (sic) calling these boys? It was shameful. Did you witness the black Muslims yelling profanities and video taping to get something to futher (sic) your narrative of hatred??
“Did you know that this 'man' came up to this one boy and drummed in his face?”
No evidence has been forthcoming supporting this version of events, and a close watching of the various videos posted of the incident reveal a remarkable paucity of black Muslims in the vicinity.
The fact that the mother seeks to defend her child is not remarkable; what is horrendous is the depths of racist hatred and contempt that this woman shows in her desperation to exonerate her equally racist son.
To further describe Mr.Phillips as a 'man' (impinging the character of a Native American Elder and Vietnam veteran, demonstrates just how vile these people are. That they will claim to love America while simultaneously denigrating honoured members of its society and community starkly reveals the truth of their political vision; America - For White Christians Only.
