Texas man arrested after getting into fight with high schoolers who walked out of class to protest ICE

I have put the videos I found below.  Notice that the governor and the attorney general blame the kids and claim the schools have taught them radical left wing extremism.  The kids see the news media about what ICE is doing and have friends who are not white. They  are angry and they are future voters.  That is what scares the republican leadership in Texas so much they are demanding schools push a hard right Republican bigoted racist agenda onto schoolchildren in the hopes of raising a new bunch of maga.  They don’t blame te adult man who got out of his truck and walked into a group of minors with the intention to force his angry racist maga views on them.  Note he shoved a girl.  In his mind how dare she talk back to a male?  That is who maga thugs have degenerated into.

Law enforcement say the 45-year-old man was the ‘primary aggressor’ in the fight that went viral

 
A 45-year-old Texas man was arrested Tuesday on assault charges after getting into a physical altercation with a student who participated in an anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement walkout protest, police said.

Earlier this week, students at Moe and Gene Johnson High School, located in Buda, Texas, walked out of classes in protest of the Trump administration’s aggressive immigration enforcement.

While the protest was largely peaceful,a verbal altercation between an adult man in a vehicle and a female juvenile on the sidewalk escalated into physical violence, according to video of the incident posted online, shared by CBS Austin.

The man, Chad Michael Watts, allegedly got out of his vehicle and confronted the female juvenile, resulting in an exchange of punches. After Watts pushed the girl to the ground, other students began attacking him, the video shows.

Watts was arrested nearly a day after the incident and charged with two counts of assault causing bodily injury, the Buda Police Department said. The Hays County District Attorney said it was investigating the matter as well.

“No matter one’s political views, an adult bears a clear responsibility to exercise restraint, especially in the presence of children,” the Hays County DA said. “Violence or intimidation directed at a minor – particularly during a lawful, peaceful demonstration – has no place in a constitutional republic that depends on the rule of law rather than force.

Multiple videos of the interaction, posted online, show Watts, holding what appears to be a red hat, challenging students, some of whom were holding “ICE out” signs.

After Watts pushed the girl to the ground, several students physically confronted him. One jumped on Watt’s back and pulled him to the ground while others began hitting him, punching him and pulling his hair, the video shows.

Buda police said that after a thorough investigation, “it was determined that Watts was the primary aggressor in the physical altercation.”

Both Watts and the juvenile girl sustained minor injuries but did not need EMS attention on the scene.

Law enforcement is conducting an ongoing investigation into the fight and said other charges against Watts could be filed.

Students across the country have planned walkouts in protest of President Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration enforcement operations.

The walkout protests have sparked anger from some Texas officials, including Attorney General Ken Paxton, who accused officials in the Austin Independent School District of imposing a “radical political agenda” on students who planned the walkout.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott also condemned the student protests while sharing an article that stated two juveniles in Hays County were arrested for possession of alcohol and resisting arrest. Law enforcement officials said those arrests had nothing to do with the protests.

But Abbott used the article to call the protests “disruptive” and assert that school staff should be treated as “co-conspirators” in “criminal behavior.”

“We are also looking into stripping the funding of schools that abandon their duty to teach our kids the curriculum required by law,” Abbott said.

 

Some More Jogging Finds

Some may recall these Hitler videos from the latter part of GW’s admin, then further into the first and now second Trump admins. This one’s classical “Hitler Finds Out…”

Trump Defends Racist Obama Meme & MAGA Rages Over Bad Bunny’s Spanish Halftime Show | The Daily Show

I like at the end where he calls maga a weak pity party and mocks them for their fake outrage and hurt feelings when others do what they themselves celebrate doing.  The fact that tRump and right wing media claim that no one understood any of the words because they were in spanish is clearly false.  This is what droveStephen Miller totally racist and insane in his teen years in school that people were talking in a language he couldn’t understand.  He made no effort to learn it instead screamed at others to accommodate him by speaking english he so he could understand. 

I often tell of the time I was in Germany.  I tried hard to learn German but I just couldn’t for some reason.  But I did try.  I would be out with friends and they would go into a shop and try to order only to come out angry the Germans wouldn’t speak english to them.  I would go into the same shops and in broken slaughtered German with lots of pointing try to order and the Germans there would switch to english for me.  I asked a German friend why that was.  He laughed and explained that it was because the other guys had an attitude that Germans had to speak english to them in Germany.  It was disrespectful to the country and to the people. My friend told me that when I attempted to talk to German people I attempted to use their language even though I did it really badly and they found that respectful.  They liked it that I tried.  I don’t see why it is so bad to speak spanish.  Heck I wish I could. I admire people who can speak different languages.  But tRump and the maga want a white ethnostate that is just everything they like and nothing else.  Hugs

DHS is using administrative subpoenas to retaliate against dissenters

The power of te federal government to make people’s lives miserable.  This is an important story on how the tRump faist goveernment is using all the levers of power to keep people from speaking up. Imagine the expense of needing to get a lawyer to fight the US government. Hugs 

‘The Librarians’ focuses on America’s book-banning battle

This is simply a push by religious groups to force their church doctrines on the rest of the public.  I also they think if kids don’t see representations of LGBTQ+ kids  people in media they won’t become LGBTQ+ or accept others who are.  They are incorrect.  It is about a small group of people trying to force the majority of people to be  at like them.  These people don’t like letting other people be themselves, they demand the right to run other people’s lives and to manage other people’s kids.  As the report says this is pushed hard by Christian nationalists who demand the right to enshrine their church doctrines into civil laws and force their religious views on the entire nation.

GAY MARRIAGE UNDER ATTACK: New campaign targets hard-won rights

Every creditable study done shows that kids of same sex couples do as well if not better than the kids of opposite sex couples.  And of course what tool do they use, we ust protect the children.  Every culture war issue these christian groups attack hey use we have to protect the children.  Trans rights issues, books and media depicting LGBTQ+, and drag queens are all attacked using that same trope of protecting the children.  It is a dodge because where were these save the kids people when school lunch programs were slashed, when food assistance was cut to the bone, where were they when kids had underfunded schools among some issues that affect kids?   Hugs

‘I won’t vote for any funding’ for DHS, ICE unless our demands are met: Sen. Blumenthal

A democratic senator is speaking out against ICE and doing so forcefully. I appreciate him doing this.  Where is Chuck Schumer?  At least he is not getting in the way of others trying to get the democrat’s message out to the people.  Hugs
