Boy attacked for not removing hat during national anthem

A man accused of slamming a 13-year-old to the ground for not removing his hat during the national anthem over the weekend did it because of President Donald Trump’s “rhetoric,” his attorney said.

At a rodeo in Superior, Montana, on Saturday, Curt Brockway, 39, grabbed Wally Crosby by his throat, picked him up, and threw him to the ground, officials alleged in court documents.

“He said [Crosby] was disrespecting the national anthem so he had every right to do that,” a witness, Taylor Hennick, told the Missoulian newspaper.

Crosby was seriously injured and had blood coming out of his ears. He suffered a fractured skull and a concussion and was airlifted to the hospital.

Brockway told police he had asked the boy to remove his hat out of respect for the national anthem, and claimed the boy had responded, “**** you.”

Brockway was charged with assault of a minor, a felony. He was released on his own recognizance, despite the state calling for bail to be set at $100,000, according to KPAX.

Brockway may have attacked the boy because Trump’s “rhetoric” made him believe he was following Trump’s orders, his lawyer, Lance Jasper, told the Missoulian.

“His commander in chief is telling people that if they kneel, they should be fired, or if they burn a flag, they should be punished. He certainly didn’t understand it was a crime,” said Jasper, who did not immediately respond to a request for comment from BuzzFeed News.

“Trump never necessarily says, ‘Go hurt somebody,’ but the message is absolutely clear,” Jasper said. “I am certain of the fact that [Brockway] was doing what he believed he was told to do, essentially, by the president.”

In a car crash in 2000, Brockway suffered a major injury to the frontal lobe of his brain, which controls judgement and decision-making. He was in the military at the time of the injury and was honorably discharged because of it, Jasper said.

If I were someone close to this man (family, wife, whatever), I would recommend some kind of supervision if he’s out in public considering his brain injury. If violence is his first reaction to something so minute, he’s a threat to the public :shrug:

Bruh, he is white. He isn't in prison. Prison is for POC.

"a judge ruled that Brockway can be released on his own recognizance."

that doesn't mean he won't go to prison (I think?), it just means he's  not paying bail/not kept during the investigation/trial and will show up when needed.

Point is, he almost killed a thirteen year old with his bare hands, and he is currently free, because he is white.

Poor kid. The fact that the man is blaming Trump for this is stupid; he should take responsibility for his own actions instead of using someone else as a scapegoat.

Released despite the fact he still believed he had every right to do it? 

Wow. Sounds like a menace to society.
