Kudos for posting video, have my upvote.
Still, this story lacks. I have no clue what and why all these guys were doing there. Just had a quick look and it seems Old Testament guys (Israeli) had some ugly word exchange with New Testament guys (school boys). Then Native Americans got involved. At then end, despite all this tension that years ago would likely end up in a fight, it somehow dispersed and later some people / media decided to make use of it (money, politics, or fun, whatever).
Good journalism is expensive and difficult. Journalists, bloggers, vloggers just want an easy to produce, quick story that is easy to understand (~ choose one or the other side) while having a quick morning coffee. Then move on to produce another shallow story.
In your main post you took a stance defending one of the sides (boys), your post doesn't explain much. It's easier to paint the world black and white (labour wise) and to choose the side instead of looking at all the shades of the world and maybe even colours.
nice one. I liked the Gell-Mann effect wiki. Interesting read.
To be honest I don't know much about the boys. In order to really understand my point I suppose one would need to be familiar with how CNN and the likes ran wild with the edited video that didn't show what really happened. I feel it is fairly common knowledge that CNN does all that they can to make anything Trump does or anything his supporters do, look bad and this, in my opinion was pretty horrible of them.
The kids didn't actually do anything wrong and it was a good thing that the entire video got out there because they had already falsely been reported as racist bigot anti-immigration blah blah blahs. They were ruining this kid's life in an attempt to make a story out of nothing.
I don't think anyone, regardless of their political leanings would agree with this practice. However, the boys have been vindicated and how the news stations are facing deserved criticism and hopefully some harsh consequences.
It is one thing to get a story wrong, another one entirely to intentionally make a story wrong.
