there is enough uncertainty in the expanded video that white wingers could claim young Smirker is a victim of some liberal scheme to brand the kid a racist. But we can’t take it absent the red hat (2016 confederate flag), blackface, etc.

I hope the kid’s parents and school get more of what they deserve.
