Yeah, that's true. I teach middle- and high-schoolers and see this kind of IcePoseidon shit all the time; kids think it's humor that hurts no one because this is literally all the media they consume. What's worse is that I see this shit creeping into kids as young as first and second grade, too.
They're going to be in for some pretty rude wake up calls then.

Takes a real loser to wear that sort of target in public, knowing you're trying to stir shit up and eventually get your ass kicked. Guess in this case they had the mouth to match.

Wait, I stumbled on the kid who uploaded the video's social media accounts and he denies them saying racist things. Is this a he say / he say type of thing or is their proof, one side or the other?

One side is a racist wearing a hat that is exclusively worn by racists who support other racists and is accused of saying racist things



The other side is a person who decided to throw a drink into the face of said racist.



I'll let you decide who is telling the truth.

No proof one way or the other. The kid's mother naturally says her son is a sweetheart who didn't do anything wrong. We all know mothers are objective when discussing their children.

On the flipside an anonymous source said the teen said all the racist shit and then they themselves got death threats from trump supporters.

I mean, fuck all the MAGA chuds out there, but I really don't approve of physically harassing anyone.

Not a fan of adults assaulting underage people in any way regardless of what was said.

Now if that guy found another teenager in there and slipped him a 5 to beat the guy's ass, I would have had no problem with it.

So, he say / he say?

I don't have a dog in this fight, just wondering.

The news source that originally posted the witness's quotes rescinded the quotes after questioning the legitimacy of them. I'm kinda leaning towards the quotes being fabricated at the moment, but the article kinda doesn't sit right with me, this quote specifically:
KENS 5 was not able to independently verify the witness statements. The account from this witness remains in contrast with the original post from the alleged victim's mother, who claimed the attack was completely unprovoked.
If that's their main reason for questioning the legitimacy of the quotes, then I'm thinkin' the quotes could be true.

The only proven racist I see is the adult caught on camera using the n-word

Gotta love all the people here looking out for the MAGA hat wearing dickhead. Wearing that hat alone is enough to call people out on their idiocy and racism.

There will never be definitive proof of this kind of thing, but since adults don't generally go around throwing drinks on white kids, and given the kid's hat and general douchiness, you can probably assume that there was something said to instigate the conflict.

Yeah, true. I am sure the kids were being pissheads. I won't encourage assaulting (assault is not the best word, but first to come to find) a minor, though. Kids can be little shits, though.

Didn't someone go through his twitter feed and the guy has constantly used the n word in the past. All I'm seeing are screencaps on twitter.

I live in bay area and saw a license plate that said MAGA.

MAGA at this point has become a rallying point for people to say Fuck You to black, Hispanic, Muslim and any other PoC without using offensive slang.

More importantly, is there anyone on Era with managerial/hiring power to get this upstanding man a job again in the San Antonio area? If I had the ability, I'd contact this dude directly to get a resume out of him and fast track him for a position.

I don't consider this assault in any shape or form.

Sure the law can interpret it as such but I just find it baffling that some people ITT are doubling down on the "assault" part and nitpicking as such instead of looking at the heart of the matter, which is racism, bigotry and the like.

Some of us need to have our priorities straight.

Can we all at least agree not to leave these people in peace in public? Even if it's just "why are you wearing that ridiculous hat?"

Whataburger employees all backed the kids and stated the attack was completely unprovoked.

That, plus the quote being rescinded, kinda seals it. Complete fake news. Hopefully people in this thread can stop repeating it. Pure libel against children - not even against adults!

The fact that the vast majority of this thread believed, without question, that a group of 16 year old boys would openly talk about murdering minorities in a family eatery is a truly troubling reflection of the US. At some point you have to question whether it sounds believable or not.

He was wearing a MAGA hat. Doesn't matter what they said or didn't.

MAGA hats are just american swastikas. You guys know how nazis need to be dealt with. A soda in the face is not anywhere near what these people deserve.

Bamboozled again! I am trying to be better though addressing the content of people's posts instead of going in hard on what they are up to, mods have enough to deal with without slapfights and the report feature is there for a reason. Not that it isn't called for in some circumstances and I'm not saying everyone needs to do like I do.
