In reply to the discussion: I'm Angry as Hell about Covington Shitballs, But Exactly What Can be Done? [View all]ProudLib72
(17,984 posts)20. Excellent question
My primary goals would be 1) to expose their behavior as racist (I want that label to stick, no weaseling out, no excusing) 2) provide some sort of consequence to serve as instruction for them. It's the second part that I'm most concerned with. Whatever consequence is chosen, it needs to be a form of restorative justice. That's why I like the idea of them doing community service on the reservation for the summer.

I also think the more this behavior is exposed the more Americans are not going to like it...

There is a petition going around that might have some clout! I've included the URL for it.
