A local news station, WHIO-TV, reported that a group of black children allegedly used violent force to make white students say “Black Lives Matter” against their will at Kenwood Elementary School in Springfield, Ohio, last Friday.
This from thegatewaypundit.com.
WHIO-TV confirmed, through a public records request:
Springfield police were called to the school Monday morning to look into the racist students’ actions.
The police say they are investigating whether this was a hate crime and are working with prosecutors to determine whether to bring charges.
During the racist incident, one white student was reportedly punched in the head by a black counterpart for refusing to pledge allegiance to the communist BLM movement.
Others were dragged, thrown to the ground, and carried to the playground.
The whole sickening event was reportedly filmed by the black students. But when WHIO-TV asked the Springfield City School District for a copy of the tape, they refused.
We the People ask: Are they attempting to obfuscate the truth?

WHIO reported:
Police are investigating reports of an assault at a Springfield Elementary School involving two groups of students.
Monday morning Springfield police were called to Kenwood Elementary School about an incident that happened during recess Friday, according to an incident report obtained through a News Center 7 public records request.
The police report states they were informed by the school’s principal that:
A group of Black students had gathered several white students on a specific spot of the playground and forced them to state ‘Black Lives Matter’ against their will.
Further, the report alleges:
Students who tried to avoid the situation were ‘chased down and escorted, dragged, or carried to the playground.’ the report alleges.
One student was punched in the head by one of the suspects, the police report states.
The group of students also allegedly filmed the students who were forced to make the statement.
Ryan Springer and Ashley Henthorne said their 12-year-old son was one of the students forced on the playground.
Springer said:
I’m angry as a parent but I understand they are children. It’s not okay to hate anybody because of their skin color, or their gender or sexual orientation, or anything like that. Nobody should be hating anybody,
Henthorne said she:
[W]as not notified of the incident when it happened Friday, but noticed a change in her son.
When she was notified of what happened Monday she said the changes she saw in her son made sense.
Henthorne said:
I kept asking him all weekend, are you OK? And he kept saying, ‘yeah, I’m just tired’ And then when I got the phone call Monday about it, I was like, ‘that explained a lot.’
Their son has not wanted to return to school and Springer said he is “traumatized.”
Springfield police told News Center 7 they are:
[I]nvestigating whether the incident is a hate crime and working with prosecutors to review any possible formal charges.
