I've seen groups turn violent like this, you don't see it coming and suddenly you're in it.

The elder just walked towards the crowd with some others drumming behind him. The kid who was laughing before takes a position to stare him down with a smirk on his face. You wouldn't do this unless you're trying to make a power play. The MAGA hat is significant, if this kid is a Trump fan he obviously doesn't mind Trump's disrespect toward Native Americans. Actually the kids decked out head to Trump gear all look like they're trying to provoke.

This isn't end of times stuff, but the initial response to the video wasn't that far off. That the kid's parents hired a PR FIRM to write his response is pretty telling. What a missed teaching moment.

And again, where were the adults? If they had been doing their job they would have moved the kids away for their own safety.
i can’t imagine what tape you saw, that showed the kids “coming up” to anyone in that fashion. have you been painting inside with the windows shut? you need to open the windows a crack.

i’d also like to know where the chaperones were. but the kids did nothing wrong. the black israelites did, as did the native american.

these are children spence, and they are receiving death threats. kudos to you and your ilk.
