This is more of a "lynching" than "fake news."
This decent young man did nothing but stand there, smile, and pray.
How long before mobs of "social justice warriors" begin roaming our streets looking for MAGA hats, Christians, conservatives, pro-life teenagers, or just "white-looking" boys and girls.

I read the kid's statement. His story seems plausible from his point of view. I'm going to give him the benefit of a doubt. Likewise the man with the drum who was taking part in a march of indigenous people. Perhaps they can arrange a public reconciliation for the good of everybody. But, we are in a time of increasingly vicious political division. So I'm not optimistic about it.
This kind of behavior is common in crowds when factions clash. Their face-to-face standoff was typical male primate territorial behavior.
