Can The Students Be Silenced?

[Auld Phart]

Since Sandy Hook, More NRA-Backed Gun Legislation Has Passed Than Laws To Restrict Guns

Are you learning yet?

"Hey kids, hopefully our thoughts and prayers will keep you safe (they won't, lul), because WE "responsible adults" (double lul) ain't doing SHIT to prevent this from happening again. In fact, here's to some more school shootings in 2018!!! Lololol!"

- The U.S. government, led by the right.

Indeed. Government agencies fucked up, even in light of multiple warnings.

So go after them.

Deleted a number of posts for lack of content, personal attacks, trolling.

Zone 2, people,

Stay on topic

How many of them were by conservatives?

Didn't count.

Which do you value more, your children's lives or owning guns? Sorry, the rosy red cheeks of my grandchildren more than the rosy afterglow of a gun muzzle , I bet ya' all agree.

When I do something that represents a real threat to your children's lives, feel free to lecture me. Until then, don't try to limit my rights because you can't control your fear.

When students turn 18 they can vote and have an opinion, until then the mush brained kids will do as they are told.

Yeah, that won’t be happening. They are highly intelligent. They will not be silenced. It must be driving you lot mad, that you actually get no say in the matter. All you can do is bitch and moan on the sidelines.

If you can deny a child's Constitutional right to own a firearm until they are 21, then you can deny their Constitutional right to free speech.

Liberals are so pathetic, they have to get high school kids to fight their battles for them.

Same as it ever was. Take Nathan Hale for instance.

The better question is why does your party suck so badly that it isn’t drawing any young people?

What a lovely slippery slope fallacy.

Are you suggesting that if you can prohibit someone's Constitutional rights on the basis of age, then you mysteriously get to pick and choose which rights that could apply to?

Regardless of party, younger people lack wisdom and life experience in general.

You sound desperate,,,,,,,YOU ARE LOSERS

Who has silenced them? They have a right to express their inexperienced, idealistic nonsense and the rest of us have the same right to ignore it. Freedom of speech doesn't promise your ideas will have a huge amount of public support.

The kids are fighting their own battles... and they’re winning.
You are on the wrong side of history as usual.
This young generation is on the right side of history and many will be voting in November.

They are brainwashed media fed tools.

SORRY BUT YOU FAIL TO UNDERSTAND THIS IS STUDENT LED,NOT THE MEDIA.....any how you GUN DOPES ARE ONLY 30% of the Population...The Students and the Youth should now speak......Your Generation are FAILURES and well past your use by DATE

If nothing substantial is done, the republicans are basically telling these kids that their lives aren't important. Which is something people just do not forget. Not now. Not twenty years from now.

I am assuming you didn't come to that conclusion based on the fact the GOP controls the House, Senate, White House, 32 governor mansions, and both legislative chambers in 32 States.

Since the student survivors of the mass murder at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School began their drive to ban the sale of semi-automatic, assault type rifles, the tremendous response from other students nationwide has turned their cause into a strong, grass roots movement.

Conservatives and their leaders are deeply concerned over the possible results this overwhelming number of kids could have. Conservatives, gun nuts, and Republican politicians are appalled by these kids demanding their safety be a priority over the gun nuts’ lunatic desire to own the phallic symbol that is their favorite to stroke and kiss.

Due to this uncontrollable fear conservatives have at the thought of losing their penile substitute, Mitch McConnell decided to ignore the growing number of young voters in this movement. With the coming mid-term elections, these many, many, many students now have the potential to join with tens-of-millions of progressive voters and put the Democrats in control of congress.

In addition to Mitch, conservative community leaders, conservatives on school boards and school administrators have done all they can to stifle the students’ enthusiasm. And now, the National Parks Service is doing so.

A “March For Our Lives” rally was planned by the Stoneman Douglas survivors to take place on the Mall in D.C., but organizers were refused a permit by the National Parks Service management. A representative for the Park Service cited a conflict with a “talent show” as the reason.

The co-executive producer of “Dancing With the Stars” Deena Katz was brought in by the Stoneman Douglas survivors to plan the major event and has a nearly $2 million budget. The money is was raised with a “GoFundMe page, along with donations from Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg and George and Amal Clooney.”

The “talent show” permit application listed equipment for the film crew’s use for the Mall as two tables, two bikes and jump ropes.

The list on the permit application for the March For Our Lives rally included 14 Jumbotrons, 2,000 chairs and 2,000 portable restrooms to be funded with part of the $2 million.

This equipment will be used by the “student speakers, musical performers, guest speakers and video tributes,” and up to an estimated 500,000 attendees, according to the permit application.

The D.C. location for March For Our Lives rally is just one of many big and small events planned in cities across the nation on the same day.

For the conservatives, the gun nuts, and Republican politicians sworn to serve the NRA, be afraid, be very afraid. And keep trying to silence this protest by these young voters. Their anger is not going away, and their numbers are growing. How many millions in 2018? And how many millions more in 2020? Yes, be afraid, be very, very afraid. (And keep pi$$ing them off. It can only help their cause.)

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.). Their mindless prattle is expected by people of reason, who also realize it is a waste of time to offer the conservatives any reply.

In a FREE COUNTRY..............voices have a right to be heard...............

It is their right.............

It is our right to disagree.

Hmmmm . . . . . no, they have a right to speak. No one has a right to be heard.

That's what they keep saying.
Of course it tends to be the same people who thought Hillary Clinton could win.

Parkland Survivors: Trump ‘Needs To Listen To The Screams Of The Children’

“We’ve been locked in a classroom. We have seen our friends text their parents goodbye. We are the experts."

No, they can't be silenced.

They are the experts on being petulant and infantile - nothing else.

You mean like 90% of people? Even most Trump supporters thought he was done for after Access Hollywood.

Anyway, the republicans are horrendous with young voters, Now they are either ignoring or attacking their future voters. Not sure how that's supposed to end up going well for them. But you keep living in this fantasy land where Trump's white Christian crutch lives on forever.

Remember "deplorables"? Well that's basically what the republicans have been doing with the young,. Vilifying them.and disregarding them. Worked out for Clinton, did it not?

Oh ... wait ...

Whatever percent it was, they were wrong.
I was basically pointing out that whatever your perceptions may be, they don't mean shit.
