May hve been inspired, at least in part, by that briefly-publicized photo of the Irving junior high kid who was being attacked for bringing the US flag to a pro-immigrant rally a couple of years ago. As it is, this particular kid won’t be able to hold her head up in her small town, as Michael points out. She’s also facing misdemeanor charges, and her parents have issued an apology. (To their credit, they didn’t immediately jump on the talk-show circuit, as far as we know.)

So are we now in for a rash of Tawanna Brawley-style false reports? Hope not.

What’s even more sad is that a 13 year old kid is busy spewing their parent’s politics, rather than being a kid. She’s got her whole life to start hating people, why not at least wait until after your teen years?
