They changed America before with the Children's Crusade in 1963, now David Hogg &Co will do it again

[basquebromance]

enough is enough. VOTE THEM ALL OUT! no more Republicans. no more Democrats. vote every single politician who is linked with NRA out.

Are you crazy? Do you realize that more than 1/3rd of the entire population of this country, owns guns? Do realize that many millions more than that 1/3rd, support the 2nd Amendment rights?

That's over 100 Million people, at a minimum.

If you think.... that you are going to remove from government, all people who have 100 Million supporters of gun rights.... you are absolutely insane.

Even if, by some chance, you were able to destroy the NRA.... (which isn't going to happen, but lets pretend).... even if you were to destroy the NRA, with over 100 Million supporters of 2nd Amendment rights, a new group, and possibly a far more aggressive group would take their place, to represent those hundred million people who support the 2nd Amendment.

I know that obviously you are too young or naive to get this, but you and Hoggy boy, have picked a fight that you can't win.

You have zero chance of winning this fight.

The absolute best chance you have, is to try and repeal the 2nd Amendment, and then it would civil war. Literally it would be the end of the US. Because more than half the country would engage in warfare rather than give up their guns.

I'm among them.

humanity's starting to fight back against the NRA, that's so exciting!

Now I know you are young. They were "fighting" the NRA back in the 1990s. They didn't win then, and you won't win now.

Just write this down brother. You won't win. You'll fight, scream, have your little marches, and in the end you will lose.

we will win and we will win easily. love always wins. love trumps hate. by the time we're done, not a single person will be killed out of hate ever again. i'm FIRED UP! I'M ON FIRE!

 

[basquebromance]

the spirit of love is rising, i can feel it in the air. Ding ding ding ding, fly and let loose the hounds of love!

 

[basquebromance]

it's like saying cancer's nice. sure there are some nice NRA members, there are also some nice cancer cells that don't kill you instantly...

“Nothing in my entire life has affected me that much — ever. Not only am I a different person, but I was robbed of my innocence.” - David Hogg

'History shows that kids, with their innocence, honesty and moral urgency, can shame adults into discovering their conscience. It worked in Birmingham. During the children’s crusade, young people swarmed in to redirect the arc of history.

we shared many of the same basic feelings of adolescence: unbounded idealism, courage unclouded by ‘practical’ concerns, faith and optimism untrampled by the ‘realities’ of the adult world.' - John Lewis

"But the Birmingham movement was flagging. In need of a radical shift in strategy, James Bevel, an adviser to King, recommended turning young blacks into foot soldiers for equal rights. King was hesitant, fearing for the children’s safety. He prayed and reflected and finally accepted that putting children in danger could help determine their future.

they were laughing and singing and carrying handmade picket signs reading “Segregation is a sin” and “I’ll die to make this land my home.

By the end of the day, under Bull Connor’s orders, more than 500 kids were behind bars charged with parading without a permit, some 75 youngsters crammed into cells meant for eight adults.

On May 2, 1963, the first day of the Birmingham children’s crusade, some 800 students skipped class, high-schoolers all the way down to first-graders. Sneaking over the fences, they scampered to the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, the march’s staging ground. (Four months later, the church would be dynamited by the Ku Klux Klan, killing four black girls.)"

The children’s crusade was national news. The Birmingham movement had been revived. And President John F. Kennedy was now paying attention.

It was then that the president and the attorney general began considering a path toward comprehensive civil rights legislation. Until students took to the streets, John Kennedy had failed to act; for two and a half years, he had been slow to recognize the plight of blacks in America. Throughout his brief term, he had been focused on other matters: foreign affairs, the national economy, the space program. But now his eyes had been opened.

“Looking back,” King wrote later, “it is clear that the introduction of Birmingham’s children into the campaign was one of the wisest moves we made. It brought a new impact to the crusade, and the impetus that we needed to win the struggle.”

let me give a different example about young folks fighting for their rights:

get a red tomato. feel it's heft. consider it's origins.

there's a fair chance it was picked in Florida, home to a 600 million dollar tomato industry, and if so, it was picked in Immokalee, in hot southwest Florida, if so, a fair chance it was picked by someone who not that many years ago was a slave.

by the hands of migrant workers from Mexico, who were abused physically & sexually, paid by the bucket and not the punishing hours in the field, yet whose meager wages were routinely stolen by their bosses, and who were pistol-whipped and chained in locked containers if they complained. POWERLESSNESS!

these workers had NO RECOURSE. NO ADVOCATES. NO FLUENCY IN ENGLISH. they were socially dead to the rest of the United States.

in 2001, they organized the 1st ever farmworker boycott of a fast-food company, against Taco Bell, 4 years later TB agreed to raise wages

the buyers agreed to contribute some of the pittance they once squeezed from their workers to a common fund for worker health and worker safety and worker education. WalMart joined the effort in 2014. 10 million dollars has been paid into the fund.

the pickers of Immokalee fought for a fair chance, and they're still fighting.

my fellow millenials, the old generation is a thing of the past, forget them, but WE have a bright future!

What a loser

[Luddly Neddite]

Hogg's 15 minutes are up. He's so "yesterday".

Hogg is the future. you are the past!

That's the way it has always been. Its the natural order of things.

RWNJs who disagree with children being safe at school and think Hogg is done -

Read a little history.

this isn’t a conservative vs liberal issue. it’s life or death. vote out the ones who don’t want gun reform. we don’t deserve to die.

God to BB: you're all going to die.

Gun reform isn't going to save any lives, bub. People who want to kill other people will always find a way. Your agenda will lead to more deaths by denying law-abiding people a tool for self-defense.

you perfectly display the misinformation campaigns of the NRA where they ignore how to actually prevent these murders and use them to try and peddle more guns.

you don't know it yet but the young people will win.

Oh blah blah blah blah so sleepy...zzzzzzzz

If you're the future, I hope I die before you breed future generations of human veal.

In realityland, you pussies are the minority. Good luck taking 300M guns away from Patriotic Americans who know how to use them. You're not going to like how that turns out. So a bit of advice: actually read the Constitution and learn something about our history and founding values of the Enlightenment.

my fellow millenials, the old generation is a thing of the past, forget them, but WE have a bright future!

Here’s a start: When Hogg cashing his moveon paychecks, he ought to consider the following as part of his crusade:

- Tell children to stop shooting one another
- Tell children to stop bullying one another
- Tell Children to show teachers respect and not body slam them to the classroom floor
- Push for 5 minutes of silence prior to the start of each day so that students of religion and non-religion can universally reflect in treating others the way you want to be treated.

Sit-ins at the Publix are nothing but bullshit publicity stunts choreographed by Hogg’s masters.

 

[Anathema]

social virtues such as trust and generosity and compassion may seem like they're for suckers,...

They are for suckers. People stupid enough to endanger their responsibility to themselves and their own family to help others, knowing there will never be any reciprocation.

Life is measured by return on investment. There is no return on those things, only loss.

History also shows humans have a shelf life. Which means new humans that are still around make policy, and old humans who are dead don't.

And that's why the Parkland shooting survivors will win, and aging gun nut America won't.
