The courageous students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida established the “March For Our Lives” after seventeen of their classmates were gunned down in February.
Of course, the congressional Republicans and the worthless turds in the idiot trump’s administration sent their typically hollow “thoughts and prayers", which were then followed by the usual lip service Republicans’ offer for a few short days whenever children are slaughtered in a public school. Those politicians then return to business as usual, again choosing to ignore the danger our students now face.
The GOP’s consistent and unforgivable indifference to these mass murders inspired, not only the Stoneman Douglas High School students, but hundred-of-thousands of students across the nation. The crusade started by the Stoneman Douglas survivors has rapidly become a true grassroots movement among students in grade schools, middle schools, high schools, and parents here in the U.S., and internationally.
Today (Saturday) the “March For Our Lives” in Washington, DC, is but one of the 800 rallies and marches scheduled to protest the epidemic of gun violence in the United States and to call for stricter gun control measures. And it’s happening only because kids nationwide are fed up with the Republicans forcing them to be sitting ducks for anyone with a gun.
Happily, the congressional Republicans are dismissing this movement as a fad that will soon disappear, so the cash from the NRA and its gun nut members will continue to roll in.
Fortunately, the children are not like their parents, adults who forget an issue as soon as it leaves the headlines. This is the students’ only issue. And with Facebook and other social media, the students need no press coverage to keep their “March For Our Lives” alive and growing. And face it, the kids are far more savvy of the power of social media than their parents, and infinitely more than the old geezers in the GOP.
So, to the congressional Republicans and the idiot trump and his corrupt cronies, please, do the United States a favor, do all you can to show disrespect for the students, “March For Our Lives”, and everyone who participates in marches, rallies, and any other form of protest associated with this movement.
The GOP’s consistent and unforgivable indifference to these mass murders will then remain as a powerful inspiration those hundreds-of-thousands of student already involved, and motivate thousands upon thousands more to join with them.
This will increase their numbers even more in the voting block formed by those turning eighteen before the 2018 mid-term elections, and eligible to vote. It will really give a boost to that number for the 2020 presidential election.
Sadly, it is inevitable there will be more school shootings and deaths before November. But, with the GOP’s ongoing indifference and disrespect towards America’s students and these new voters, these young people will know, exactly who their enemies are in congress, the White House, in state legislatures, and in the governors’ mansions. And they will know who they must vote out of office.
So, keep those meaningless thoughts and prayers coming. Serve the NRA and its gun nuts. Most important of all, demand the idiot trump launch no Twitter campaign of insults or hurtful tirades directed at the students or the “March For Our Lives” movement. He will immediately do so, which will also help get you GOP S.O.B.s thrown out.
As always, thoughtful comments are welcome. Unfortunately, the conservatives remain either unaware or will deny their individual response to this thread is their typical nonsense consisting of denial, alternate facts, and/or off-topic silliness. (e.g. non-sequiturs, ratings, transference, deflection, memes, etc.). The conservatives' mindless prattle is expected by people of reason, who also realize it is a waste of time to offer the conservatives any reply.
