Well the preacher apologized
To the kid.
A bit late especially after you trashed him so bad in the 1st place. Thats what happens when you jump to conclusions especially with this lying media we have now.
A Kentucky bishop has issued a personal apology to the teenager at the center of viral clash with Native American man, saying the diocese was 'bullied' and reacted 'prematurely' to the footage.
An initial joint statement from the Diocese of Covington and Covington Catholic High School on Saturday had condemned the students for their actions.
But in a letter to parents Most Rev. Roger Foys apologized to Covington families and to anyone offended by either statement. Foys says the diocese was 'bullied' and reacted 'prematurely', The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
He wrote: 'We should not have allowed ourselves to be bullied and pressured into making a statement prematurely, and we take full responsibility for it.
'I especially apologize to Nicholas Sandmann and his family, as well as to all CovCath families who have felt abandoned during this ordeal. Nicholas unfortunately has become the face of these allegations based on video based on video clips.
'This is not fair. It is not just. We apologize to anyone who has been offended in any way.'

IMO Not enough. That kid was slandered, people went after him with pitch forks they went into his family and tried to destroy his future.
Not enough...............

""Not enough...............""
Very true, but that is the way of the church nowadays.
I was born, raised, practiced Catholic. Still religious, but not in the church. They don't think 2 steps ahead of themselves.0 -
Apologizing after the fact does nothing/means nothing. Get the straight story before ya open your pie hole. All the shoot from the hip criticism damaged that kid right up front. Jumping on the band wagon afterwards with some half-a**ed apology is meaningless. 0 -
sure as HELL not going to blame THEMSELVES for their own crappy statements.....read close the churchs response ...the devil made me do it ?????????????????????????? 0 -
He wrote: 'We should not have allowed ourselves to be bullied and pressured into making a statement prematurely, and we take full responsibility for it.
That's a LMAO considering they allowed pressure and bullying of 1000's and 1000's of boys for sex assault by pedophile priests.0 -

Yes Sir, Chris.
POS's like that remind me of the Tawana Brawley case. (BS, from start to finish.)
Saw Rev. Al, for what he was, way back then.
POS needs to be sent to Prison for his 4-5 million $$ Tax debt.
How do you like me now?0 -
Did you know that some of these kids had been excepted to universities and these whack job libtards went into "Social Media" like fecalbook, found out the schools they had been excepted to and wrote the schools trying to get them "Un-accepted".
This is the way these libtards play, they want to destroy you for frickin EVER if you are not one of them.
That priest is despicable IMO.
I sent his diocese an Email and told them what a despicable human being I think he is.............its seems these high and mighty preachers are pedophiles in some way or another.0 -

Acted prematurely?????
Weather the accusations were false or not, a priest has no business to denounce anybody in public. His ownly job is to council and support individuals... Not to make public statements about how anybody Acts...doesn't he know the ten commandments where it says "thou shalt not bear false witness on but they neighbor"????
The idiot should be fired for his actions...0 -

This is just another example of how these so-called religious people are the biggest hypocrites in history.
He should be tarred and feathered. I would like to spit in his face.0 -
I?ll drive! 0 -
and then the "church" sent some bad priests to their retirement home to live comfortably till they cross over to ???? one such about 60 miles NW of here in KANSAS... 0 -
Isn't the position of "Bishop" a fairly high leadership position?
This guy was an idiot. Without the facts he made a typical snowflake apology for someone other than himself!
His simple statement should have been, "We are looking into this incident and if we find any of our boys did anything wrong, you can rest assured they will apologize."
I would not trust him to give me proper guidance on subjects such as Life and Heaven.0 -
Better late than never.
Obviously, the church has sold out to Lib media. Sad.
Throw the kids under the bus, but don't make MSNBC mad, obviously that is their mode of action.0
