I think the students at Florida international university need to walk out in protest over bridges. Bridges need to be outlawed too.

these kids are tired of having to worry about being murdered in school and deserve to be heard

They need to be heard,I agree.But they also have to understand the reason people have the right to bear arms and why it is dangerous to take that right away. There are things that are being put in place to make schools safer,but I don't think every state will do the same thing. We cannot get rid of all guns and we can't take away everyones rights. The students need to understand that and this is a part of becoming an adult.

you mean " young people getting influenced by the liberal media to push a gun control agenda ". that is what the walkout is about.
I thought they were influenced by seeing people murdered in school
The murders are the problem. The liberal media is influencing their minds about the solution!



Imagine the public as a big herd of sheep... and the bad guys are wolves with guns...

Now imagine that a few sheep also have their own guns to defend the rest of the herd from the wolves...

Now take away all of the sheep's guns..

The sheep are now defenseless against the bad guys with guns!

there is examples we could follow, but being a self centered society we love our right to bare arms more then our children safety. not to mention the money behind it all. I personalty have no need for a gun but it ain't all about me but for real we do not need assault weapons on our street or in the hands of the public. aromatic weapons need to good. There is no cure all cure all but if ONE child's life is saved it is worth it.
Good grief, this is so ignorant and chiche'd that I don't really know where to start.... I'll start where you left off.

Are you ok with banning all cell phones? Think of all the kids' lives that would be saved.

Are you ok with the federal government making it illegal to own any vehicle that can exceed 40 mph ? Think of all the kids' lives that would be saved.

Shouldn't we outlaw all swimming pools? And, for that matter, make it illegal to swim in lakes? Think of all the kids lives that would save....

But, mostly.... shouldn't we outlaw forever and ever, abortion? Think of the MILLIONS of babies that have been aborted since Roe v. Wade was made law....

I assume you will be in favor of enacting ALL those laws? Or... could you possibly be simply anti-gun, and it has nothing to do with "saving the life of just ONE child"...

Not at all. This is pure ans simple MANIPULATION of those who can't see they are being manipulated by the Left-Liberal media as well as extreme Left-Wing agitators (no doubt funded by the likes of George Soros) to continue disrupting society and speaking evil of those who are in fact ordinary citizens. As someone has already mentioned elsewhere, had all these young people staged a walk-out against abortion -- which is murder -- they would be viciously reviled and called all kinds of names.

There are a thousand different ways to be heard without agitating and walking out of schools. Have we heard of any of these students presenting well-research series of proposals for greater school security to their elected representatives, or to the President, and based upon facts -- not emotion -- making rational recommendations which would be taken seriously? Furthermore, why has their anger not been directed at the people who are directly responsible for this most recent tragedy -- the FBI and the law enforcement people of Broward County? How come the students did not send a petition with a million signatures to President Trump to fire all the top echelon people in the FBI and clean house? Had they done their jobs, this incident, as well as another incident reported after this would not have happened.

We are working on that, young lady. Your safety is very important to we seniors. I would lay down my life for any one of you. Please leave the politics to those that are willing to take the time to do it right. :rolleyes:
Apparently it is not being done right and that is why those teenagers have taken the mantle. One death by a firearm is one too many. I truly hope they limit gun ownership, change the law to age 21 and no automatic assault weapons for anyone. Isn't it enough to own a gun? No one in my family has ever owned a gun. What is the need? By the way, we look to our young people to make changes in society.

Gay marriage and school shootings are apples and oranges. Don't know how that matters in this situation. Are many of them taught leftist views, probably but protesting safety in schools, they aren't wrong there. They are the ones who went through such traumatic experiences, many kids are also afraid to go to school because of this.[/QUOT

School shootings and gay marriage are completely unrelated. But some people are obsessed with gays. why? I have no idea. Guess we need someone to hate on. :(

they are related in the fact that they are 2 things the media heavily pushes. just some friendly advice- do not trust the mainstream media. they lie, they manipulate , they leave out major facts. do your own research.

start here- look up how many students were told and made to walk out by their teachers.

Well you for one are not the one being slaughtered while sitting in school. Since us adults can not get it done maybe they can. GO School Students go.

this is a ridiculous and more than obvious statement

adults could get it down in a day

it's the political posturing and the desire to be king for a day that 'can't get IT done'...like everything else

those students will not accomplish anything more than a gnat hanging off a screen

I wish they would or could...but it's basically a show for the liberal agenda

you can't stop a gun with a 'please don't do that'...it usually takes another gun in the right hands

dissa full of baloney too and won't even taste better with mustard

Trump (oh I know y'all hate the sound of that)

Trump held open meetings to discuss solutions and everyone had a voice

what did La Bomba do?

crickets chirping

it's a process..you can't go in like gangbusters and no one would really want that...not even liberals

forget your freedom(s) if that ever happens

people do not think of consequences...just knee jerk reactions

Well you for one are not the one being slaughtered while sitting

Lets look at just one story, of Mr. Askew who died a tormented death, by teenagers.

Imagine being picked on and bullied day in and day out for 10 years. Gangs of teenagers
constantly harassing you. When you step out to get groceries, come home from visiting
friends, or just try to get some sleep—you constantly live in fear.

Your home is not your castle. It is a gathering ground for 10-, 15- and 18-year-old thugs
who get a kick out of mistreating you.

You have tried standing up for yourself, but at 64 years old, you are past your physical prime.
You have called the police, your family members have called the police, and several neighbors
have called the police, but nothing changes. In desperation, you resort to bribery—paying your
tormentors to leave you alone—but that only results in even more thugs assaulting you.

Broken windows. Vandalized gardens. Constant trespassing. A nightmare.This was the life of
64-year-old England resident David Askew, before his premature death by heart attack—
brought on by the mistreatment by teenagers.

Neighbors said Mr. Askew had been “tormented to death”—“like bear baiting.”
His tormentors would bug him, bug him, and bug him, until he finally exploded in rage.

“This has been going on for about 10 years,” said neighbor Avona Davies. “They tormented
David for money and cigarettes. They harassed him every night without fail.” The pack of feral
teenage yobs even picked on Askew’s 88-year-old, wheelchair-bound mother, whom he lived with.

Mr. Askew’s case is not an isolated incident.
-

the Times reported the death of Albert and Kath Adams, both 77. The couple died in a fire when
someone lit Mr. Adams’s scooter on fire and the flames spread to the house. Neighbors claim it
was a revenge attack after the couple confronted a gang of teenagers who harassed residents
and vandalized the community.

Within 12 hours a second scooter, belonging to neighbors in their 90s, was set alight. A message,
whether intentional or not, was sent loud and clear from the teenagers to the retirement community:
We can do whatever we want, and there is little the police can do. Interviewed residents refused
to give their names for fear of reprisals.

The reality of the limits of the justice system became all too clear to restaurant owner Sal Miah.
When teenagers broke into his beer cellar, he chased them down and brought them back to his
restaurant, where he told his diners not to worry and his staff to watch them until police arrived.


Meanwhile, a bunch of the teenagers’ friends arrived and started trying to kick his restaurant door
in.Fearing for the safety of his guests, he locked the door and went outside to stop the teenagers
from getting in and damaging his property. In doing so he pushed some of the teenagers away from
his windows.

But when the police arrived, they didn’t care that the teenagers had broken into his property,
or that he had managed to catch the perpetrators and hand them over to the police on a platter.
Instead, the police believed the gang of teenagers, who claimed Mr. Miah had punched and
attacked them.

For his trouble, Mr. Miah was fingerprinted, his mugshot taken; he was charged with assault and
battery, and was thrown in jail for five hours. According to police, Mr. Miah should not have tried
to apprehend the youths and should have “observe[d] from a safe distance” before calling them.


“This country is getting worse,” says Miah. “You see gangs tormenting people
and they are just getting away with it. … The system is a joke.”
-

With society degraded so far—it is a sad thing to say, but no amount of legislation,
or even law enforcement, will be able to fix things.


“As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them,” Isaiah wrote.
“O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths” .
Isaiah said children would be our oppressors. The original Hebrew word means to drive
(like an animal), to be a taskmaster, harass or tyrannize.


This verse is a great summation of today’s news headlines concerning young people.
Most children do not respect their parents or any authority. They drive society like beasts
of burden, always wanting more. They harass and goad. And now some have become
tyrannical monsters who murder us.

Here's confirmation that George Soros and the Communists are behind this manipulation of impressionable students. Soros should have been put behind bars by now, and all the rest should have been charged with sedition.
