This is pretty crazy, but I’ll do my best to show you the full story and let you decide.
Because there are definitely two sides to this.
And perhaps you might come to the same conclusion that I am coming to which is: both sides might be wrong here.
But let me show you what I mean first….
I assume most of you by now know the story of Austin Metcalf who was (allegedly) stabbed in the heart by a black kid at a track meet for the crime of telling him he couldn’t sit where the track team is sitting.
He died on the scene in his twin brother’s arms.
Horrific story.
But what I want to talk about is the parents’ reaction to it.
First I want to go to this clip of Austin’s father speaking after Austin was stabbed in the heart and killed.
I will say this is a short clip and perhaps sounds different in longer context, I don’t know, but what I am hearing here is a father that is far more worried about not offending black people than he is over the fact that his son was just brutally stabbed in the heart and killed.
