3/14/18 Nationwide School Walkout Has Begun

[hunarcy]

Under 21?

That's not young children. These are older teens.Young children would be elementary school age.

Those that want to ban young children of 18 -20 years old from having a legal rifle and exercise their 2nd amendment, yet they can go out with liberal propaganda and exercise their 1st amendment...

If a 19 year old with serious problems had not had that gun designed for war, 17 of them would not be dead.

An AR 15 is not designed for war just because you keep saying it doesn't make it true

Funny, but those fighting in wars call them made for killing. There is no need for those on the streets of this country.

Get back to me when you have seen the damage to a loved ones organs hit by them.

The weapons used in war are NOT AR-15s. Since you don't understand the difference, why are you posting?

 

[DJT for Life]

It's a Great way to draw a crowd.

Tell High School students they can leave class and go stand outside.

Not many opt to remain inside.

Maybe the next one can be at 8pm on Saturday night and we can compare
the amount of participants.

A Glock 9MM was used by the Va Tech shooter to kill 33 people....what's your plan on that one?

If the authorities had taken his ‘serious problems’ seriously, ‘17 of them would not be dead’.

Agree, but that is no excuse for him having all those killing machines. Quit baming others for the deaths.

But you are blaming an inanimate object

Yes

because guns are the only way for a 19 year old with serious problems to kill mass amounts of people.

You are correct in that guns are not the only way to kill mass amounts of people. However, guns tend to be the preferred method of killing in these instances. That is something that should be looked into.
Guns seem to be the preferred tool of choice in mass murder, followed by vehicles? I think. We don't seem to be plagued by Mass Poisoning, Mass Drowning, Mass Vehicular Homicide, Mass Throat Slitting, Mass Head Crushing, Mass Tank Attack, Mass Land Mine Attack, etc....
No, it's guns, guns, guns....

I'm not going to claim to know why guns are overwhelmingly the method of choice for mass murder, but I would like people smarter than me to look into it.

With all those mass murders by guns, they still haven't come close to the preferred method of killing.

And...nothing was done after that to prevent future events, right?

A man with a van killed 90 people (including children and babies) and wounded nearly 500 more. He had some guns too, but clearly the truck did the trick. If someone wants to kill a lot of people, they can do so just as easily without guns.

That was a devastating attack, and because of it, the United States of America went freaking nuts, in fact they are still at war because of it over 15 years later.

Compare that to the reaction after multiple mass shooting incidents over those same 15 years. I'm not saying taking away guns is the answer, what I'm saying is that America isn't doing shit all.

Watch: Students Put Pencils Down, Walk Out in Gun Protests

Thousands of students across the D.C. area staged walkouts Wednesday to protest gun violence, one month after the deadly shooting inside a high school in Parkland, Florida.

Police cruisers escorted hundreds of students from Montgomery Blair High School as they marched through Silver Spring, Maryland, carrying signs that said "Protect Children, Not Guns" and "Our Blood, Your Hands."

The walkout is one of the first of many in the region.

The first large-scale, coordinated national demonstration is planned for 10 a.m. Wednesday, when organizers of the Women's March called for a 17-minute walkout -- with one minute for each of the 17 students and staff members killed in Florida. Many organizers and participants are using the #enough hashtag.

Thousands of Students Are Walking Out of School in Nationwide Protests. Here’s Why

The 1969 Supreme Court ruling on the case Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District makes it clear that students don’t “shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.” But that does come with some caveats and complications.

• First, it only applies to public schools. “This is because public schools are run by the government and private schools aren’t, and the First Amendment only controls what the government can and can’t do,” the ACLU explains on its “Know Your Rights” page. Students at private schools can be stopped from participating in protests like the #Enough National School walkout, and students should consult with their teachers and school administrators and know what the policies are regarding protests or absences.
• Second, free speech in schools extends “as long as you don’t disrupt the functioning of the school or violate the school’s content-neutral policies,” the ACLU explains, and what is “disruptive” is contextual. If deemed disruptive, “schools can stop students from participating,” according to CNN.
• Third, you can be punished for participating — not over what you are protesting, but for being absent from class. “The exact punishment you could face will vary by your state, school district, and school,” the ACLU explains. “Find out more by reading the policies of your school and school district. If you’re planning to miss a class or two, look at the policy for unexcused absences.” If planned ahead with parents, students may be able to be signed out of a class by a parent.
• Finally, schools are mandated to be guardians to their students. “Schools stand in what’s known as loco parentis, so we don’t simply release our students into the ether,” Francisco Negron, the Chief Legal Officer at the National School Boards Association, told NPR. Negron issued guidance to schools ahead of the walkouts. “Chief among our recommendations is that to the extent possible, school districts should plan ahead and engage your students, parents, and stakeholders,” the checklist reads. Teachers also have a complex position when it comes to protesting; they can often protest on their own time, but not during class time, according to CNN.

Next nationwide protest is March 24th, and I will be attending that one.

Parkland student: My generation won't stand for this (Opinion) - CNN

Activists Lay Thousands of Shoes Outside U.S. Capitol

Activists placed thousands of pairs of shoes on the lawn outside the Capitol in Washington, D.C. Tuesday to memorialize children killed by gun violence.

The demonstration was planned by international advocacy group Avaaz to represent the number of children killed by guns since the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in 2012, CBS News reports.

The demonstration was based on research by the American Academy of Pediatrics that found that 1,300 children die from gun shot wounds in the U.S. annually, or about three daily. Thus the display featured 7,000 pairs of shoes.

The protestors assembled the empty shoes on the southeast lawn from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. in an effort to push Congress for gun reform.

WE REFUSED TO BE HUNTED!

Just watched one of those children on TV say that. We refused to be hunted.
Maybe there will be a political change.

Republicans have spent years terrorizing Americans into believe they will only be safe carrying an assault rifle in the country of the free and the brave. The GOP's message of chicken isn't working with this new generation.
The thing that worries me is that some right winger will run out there and try to mow down a bunch of children marchers.

Why then, are guns the most often tool of choice.

 

[Tilly]

The demonstrators are going to learn that the U.S. has a representative government, and they are going to see clearly who is represented. Then, after they see it is not they who are represented, perhaps they will start to demonstrate for a real cause; the end of the two party dictatorship and dominance by vested interests.

Then they will begin to vote the asses out that are controlled by the NRA!

Many of those students will turn 18 this year. All will be 18 by 2020!

They will not forget their dead friends. That sight will never go away in their lifetimes.

They wont forget Barney Fife outside shivering afraid to go in and confront the 19 year old with a gun. They wont forget how the FBI failed at Boston, San Bernardino, Orlando and now Broward County. They wont forget their unarmed teacher who stood in front of the 19 year old and was shot so he could protect those children.. Yep, lots to remember there..

Sadly it seems they’ve forgotten all of that already, courtesy of the brainwashing leftards using them for their anti gun agenda.

If a Muslim decided that it would be a good time to get his 72 virgins, and took a truck into the mall and ran over those snowflakes, would the school be responsible for using young children for their propaganda needs?

Pure nonsense! That 19 year old could purchase many other semi-auto weapons that would have done the same evil.

However, what is the dumbass hangup on the number 17? Hundreds of school children are being killed by gang bangers and drug dealers every year, and that doesn't seem to bother any of you snowflakes. You need to quit dancing on the graves of dead children in an attempt to further left wing idiocy.
