He wasn't taunting anybody, he was standing there so painfully awkward and didn't move. Ffs y'all are so drama obsessed.

BuzzFeed you’re not rehabilitating your image with bs headlines like this. How about “MAGA kid lies about taunting Native American elder”? Or are we just saying fuck credibility now?

Buzzfeed = zero credibility.

That was pretty obvious if you actually seen the whole video

Buzzfeed should apologize in person. Buzzfeed = BuzzFeedTRASH

He wasn’t harassing anybody. He was approached. So wrong. So stupid.

You guys should liquidate the company and just join one of the 16 dems who have declared for 2020

FoReVErAnGel081*18+i M COlumbia BOund ! Sexyshorty081 I want that kid to point wheer hes like MOm will you drive me I dont wana walk im scared

Some one take that snotty kid’s car keys away until he develops a sense of respect.

People who said negative things about this kid are racist. I thought we were past judging people? Who else do you judge. Judge yourself as a racist.

...and your boss said he didn’t pay off a Hooker after he had sex with her months after having a baby with another woman. Immoral people are simply liars. This immature child was only taunting this veteran and Native American.

Orange man badexecute words: racist, bigot, russia, sexist

Even CNN has backtracked once they saw entire sequence of events. Let’s be real, people just don’t like the kids smirk and let that dictate what they see,think or hear.

When I was in hs I said about anything to stay out of trouble. Nice try

Where is your apology to these kids? Where is your retraction? These kids have been doxed and are receiving death threats - because of you! There could be blood on your heads. Watch the entire video here and SEE and HEAR the truth.

Watch the entire video here and SEE and HEAR the truth. Media (buzzfeed) should be ashamed at what they did to these kids. Liberals doxed these kids & now getting death threats, but the kids are innocent.

Everyone should go and actually watch the full video. If you had any sense of reality you’d know that the man with the drum caused it.

They got called “a bunch of incest babies” I’m CACKLING

Another fake story by the Pulitzer Prize writers at BuzzFeed. Keep up the great work BuzzFeed.

Thank you for getting it straight.

So they were imitating the tomahawk chop out of respect?

Full video of what transpired regarding Catholic High students via YouTube. Go to 1:12:16, the native american activists approached the kids & prior to that other protesters taunted them because of the MAGA hats. StandWithCovingtonCatholic

I call BS

He wasn’t and everyone who denmonized these kids needs to issue a public apology!!!! The kids were being harassed and the Native American said the he went up the students. You guys are shameless

“I’m not taunting. I’m just giving him my usual entitled smirk because he’s different than me.”

Now that he’s showing sympathy it’s okay. Yeah, he’s gonna get away with this and it’s sad. dafuk

Don’t bother pretending you are interested in the truth. We all know better. Why are you on my feed? Thought I blocked you and CNN

Of course he wasn't but hey you people think if you wear a MAGA hat your the devil incarnate

The Sandmann should never have a good nights sleep again. Who does what he did at his age?

buzzfeed is FAKENEWS

FAKENEWS

If a student from Owensburg Catholic was part of this then they too should be disciplined. IStandWithNathanPhillips

Hey karaswisher maybe you should see this

I wonder how many Russian agents are tweeting in here now. This is the perfect subject matter for them to promote discord and devicivness.

IDIOT

No, this child is evil. I know.

The unedited video shows the truth. The NA elder instigated the confrontation. The student(s) did not handle the situation well but the elder clearly caused the confrontation. And it’s not the first time he has caused this kind of trouble...

🐂💩

That’s True. He was totally Respectful. Although the NA guy wasn’t.

I lied a lot too as a teenager

Stop acting like these kids were the antagonizers. If you watch the whole video, the Native American gentleman was totally in the wrong.

This video shows the liberal protesters harassing the boy and the group of boys while they waited on their busses. all they did was the wave build the wall which is in their right to do. they did not start this.

Why do you even write stuff any more?BFexit

Video says otherwise

Worth watching

That stupid chin says he was

ooohhh i hope you get sued

Why does the woman chastise the boys and say they are acting like a mob?

I think he wanted to until he was completely hypnotized by the rhythmic drumming and song.

thatsallifolks gotta read the whole thing

Why is buzzfeed trying to report news? Isnt it for reporting about Rihannas bathroom experiences and Kim Kardashians life?

I feel like this was just confusing for both the natives and the boys. It sounds like a confusing and scary situation

What was he doing then? Looking professionally gormless!?!? I’m sure his mammy is proud of him, looking the gowle.

These MAGA Klan members got big balls when harassing people but suddenly revert into denial and projection the second they are confronted with the truth of their assholery. Pathetic. He can kick rocks

And you believe him?

And yet you reported he did before ascertaining any facts. You are batting 1000 in the fake news department.

His face tells me everything I need to know

The Native veteran he was taunting says different

Interesting that Buzzfeed is backing down after all the facts came out. Waiting for the public apology, though.

What a predicable response

Nice try kiddo.. These kids were rude BEFORE and there was absolutely no reason to stand right in the face of Nathan Philips.

That's what his parents lawyer told them to say.

Not been a good week , has it?

The willfull ignorance of the vile left in the view of video evidence to the contrary demonstrates that they get a sadistic pleasure in mob justice. These degenerates deserve no empathy

Sounds about Reich...

Does this look he’s silently praying?

Imma believe the Vietnam vet over a privileged punk. Bye.

I didn’t know that to diffuse a situation, you have to plaster a smug smirking face 🤔

Video evidence says he didn't taunt the Native American. You pushed a lie and now you're still pushing the lie but with a tiny backpedal to avoid a lawsuit.

Yeah, and I'm Queen of Mars...

Yes. I’m selling a bridge btw. Any takers?

Not just “he said”. He objectively was not.

The kid’s reaction was different from the other kid’s. I’ve seen the full video. He locked eyes with him & wouldn’t move, which clearly looks like he’s challenging him. And you see him laughing with the other students before. This kid is a liar.

I am annoyed by his smug face.

You don't say?

But... we can see him. Does he know that?

lol obviously none of y'all have watched the full video, just admit you fell for a media hoax and move on

I am so annoyed by his smug.

Well this school has pulled this racist crap before. Scroll down on this link to see CovCav doing this before.

Noticed the family hired a pr firm.

It's called the 'Jesus Loves You Stare'

as waves of retractions are rolling in buzzfeed fans double down on their virtue signaling hate. No shame whatsoever.

Now he isn’t just intimidating and hateful, now he’s also a liar. He’s the definition if a coward.

vientoeldiablo a este mierda le daria el batazo

Just look at his Twitter feed

Gaslighting would fit in his profile.

Kentucky gonna Kentucky. Republicans gonna lie. Evangelicals gonna hate.

Read that Elder Nathan says he walked between the two groups to peacefully defuse the hostility between the teens and the other group they were engaged with:

“I’m not racist” - Guy wearing racism’s most popular headwear.

This is the first step towards a crying apology video from him

People need to watch the whole video instead of being ignorant sheep 👍🏼

Apparently the smug arrogance on his face was misinterpreted by every socially aware person across social media. CovingtonCatholicHighSchool

He was just smiling cause he’s special

Yes. He and his buddies were *actually* taunting a group of other people with racist garbage. This Native American veteran took time out of *his day raising awareness about Native American inequality* to try and remedy the situation with peace. Fuck this kid.

Haven’t you guys lied enough this week? I think y’all should take a break from “journalism”.

Look at his face... looks like taunting to me.

...and if there’s one thing I know about someone wearing a MAGA hat it’s that they’re serious about the truth

Watch the whole video if ur confused and I’m as confused about this as the next guy but the video shows that kid standing apart from him and trying to be respectful at what is an odd occurrence... also love how they use the pic of him smiling when he smiled for like two seconds

That smirk says otherwise.

Also Richard Nixon said he wasn’t a crook.

Here is the boy response from a PR representative

Conservative 'Christians' are the worst humans on the planet.

Ok bye

Really? Because my eyes say different.

What does the 2 hours of unedited video say? Or were you too busy creating fake news regarding the Mueller investigation to report on that?

says he wasn't.......there is video evidence that he was not. This is understandable coming from you guys though the 'Kings of Fake News'

...and BuzzFeed finally comes around with their soft retraction of the fake news story they pushed all weekend smearing children

The media dropped the ball on the Covington High story... big time. Those kids nothing wrong. The epithets were directed AT them.

My eyes say he was. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So now he's a liar too. Shocking.

Except that the video shows he was 💁‍♂️
