    So the photographer said he asked for the hands and we have people still jumping to conclusions?

    How about someone does a little fact checking and ask the kids who did not raise their hand what happened.

    Nevertheless blaming Nazi salutes on Trump is insane. Considering what the left has done since Trump was elected they are the ones who have polarized the nation. And it was very effective in getting out their vote.

    What the hell has Trump done to Jewish people besides support Isreal?

  5. Because they're white? I don't recall you being quite so circumspect when it's an incident involving a person or persons of color...

  6. So you're upset when football players take a knee, but you're all about the freedoms when it's the Nazi salute? You will recall that WWII resulted in 50 to 80 millions deaths, depending on the statistics you include. These numbers include about 418,500 Americans. Remember who started it? And you're willing to give these good ol' boys the benefit of the doubt?

    "For the sake of argument?" Here's a hint: when you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras. They knew what they were doing and you know what they did.

  7. Being upset and saying they can't do it are two completely different positions. They can kneel, burn flags, or conversely give Nazi salutes, whatever, they have the right. I have the right to disagree. There may be consequences for all involved on either side of the argument. The law and constitution as it stands right now give people the right to voice opinions and make gestures that others may find offensive. I support this constitutional right. I know in your world supporting the constitutional rights of people who have views that differ from leftist ideology means that the person supporting the constitutional rights actually supports the people expressing those views. That is not the case.

    Kids being kids. Just like when you said Acosta couldn’t do what he did and you were upset. Vice versa back at ya.:D

  9. Evidently, some people find the Nazi salute (and everything it represents, both historically and in the present) to be less upsetting than the observance of the 1st and 5th Amendment rights as they pertain to Acosta...

  10. I never said Acosta couldn't do what he did. He can act however he wants. There are consequences to that. Acosta has no constitutional right to attend a presidential press conference, nor does anyone else. The president is under no obligation to speak directly to the press, ever. Would that be wise in the long run? Probably not. Like I keep saying, people are free to say and do as they please, but there are consequences.
