Kids against gun violence

[old2soon]

Noon news here-N B C affiliate-showing kids on aircraft heading to D C for a big demonstration tomorrow-Sat the 24th. Also we had some schools in Springfield Mo. and surrounding areas outside demonstrating during class time which was excused for those who choose to demonstrate. Bigger and better shows of unity tomorrow Nation Wide. My question about all of this. WHERE Exactly is the funding coming from? And no surprise here a Lot of hollyweird types are endorsing the kids. I also want an END to school murders and violence. MAYBE just maybe if local L E Os in Florida and the F B I had paid attention that shooting and the 17 dead would have NEVER happened! RIDE SAFE.

 Where is the outrage for the 11 or so kids killed each day by driving while texting?  We are supposed to care what a bunch of kids that a month ago were eating tide pods think about our Constitution? I don't think so.

Beat me to it.  I had the same thought. I know, let's make it illegal for a phone to do anything but make voice  calls.  I bet them little snowflake wannabees will have something to say about that

What better way than to use uneducated kids to further the antigun agenda.  They'll get all of the liberal Moms jumping at the chance to 'protect' the kids.  Idiocy in, reasoning out.

Well, hopefully, the kids won't be eating Tide Pods while demonstrating about something they know nothing about.

Like Denny, said who's paying for this indoctrination?

That’s disappointing news about Robert Kraft.
Since I can’t escape the anti-gun b/s, think I’ll go to the club tomorrow.
Just got a Ruger bolt .22 for the grandkids to sharpen their shooting skills. Someone needs to zero it in...
And the 9 & 380 are feeling lonely. Gotta stay sharp ya know.

It’s really sad that the kids are just pawns in this war. So many things missed and so many mistakes made before the Florida shooting, yet it’s all about gun control.

It is kinda ironic, not that they'll learn, they've been having their temper tantrum demanding civil rights be curtailed in the name of safetyness, and when THEIR civil rights are curtailed in the name of safetyness (New school rules, all backpacks must be CLEAR and they must have their student ID visible at all times) they start whining about this being a violation of their civil rights...





This couldn't be more ironic if it had a chemical symbol of Fe with the letter "y" after it...

[FryeVRCCDS0067]

This was my response to one of pod people commenting about this locally.

Try as you might, you can not degrade our 227 year-old Bill of Rights down to a level the “Tide Pod Generation” can avoid hurting themselves with. It’s impossible, the more you try to idiot proof something the dumber idiots get.

Instead, bring the “Tide Pod People” up to a level that can handle basic American freedoms. The same freedoms every generation of Americans has been fine with up until the past decade or two.

If you can just bring your generation’s common sense up close to the level of previous generations you will be fine with the standard, 227 year-old American freedoms the rest of us refuse to live without.

When you reach that level, you will find our freedoms to be uplifting instead of scary.

I watched a young person get chastised yesterday by her peers for going against the grain. A group of young people were discussing the Florida issue. I noticed most of the group had the usual "no guns, take them all" type of conversation with the exception of one young girl.

After some time a young male asked the basically silent young girl what she had to say since she was so silent? The young girl replied: "until parents become parents and pay attention to their kids, recognize behavioral problems, nothing will get better. Until us kids report strange and threatening behavior nothing will change. Guns can and will never be taken away. That's just nuts she said, guns are not the problem,  people are.

I was flabbergasted to hear that come out of a young person since all seem to think it's all about guns. Anyway, a young male said: "no wonder you have been so quiet,  you're full of crap "! She stood up, gathered her belongings and said: "you guys should be setting around a manure spreader because that's what's being said here. She left.

[solo1]

I really would like to say that ,from my observation, kids going to parochial school seem to have it right.
Maybe it's the education backed by Faith, maybe it's the parents who were raised the same way, maybe , and probably, it's both.

The public school teachers and their administration have successfully removed all sense of responsibility and discipline from the education of children. They have taken a clean 'blackboard', so to speak, and fouled it with 'humanism' (I think that's the word I was going for).

I note first hand on movies too in Netflix.  The kids are all wiseasses raised by dip sh** mothers who are single. Along comes a man to act as a father figure and the kid and the man get along fine because the man is impressed by the kids super knowledge and wise assness. Never mind, I digress.

In answer to the first post here is a partial list of those involved in the protest both financially or planning wise. The movement knows if you know the backers you will discount the movement so they are being especially tight about financing and support.



George Clooney gives US$500k to fund nationwide gun protests
Gucci, the Italian fashion house, has decided to donate $500,000

The march has also garnered donations from other notable names and figures, including Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw.

http://www.breitbart.com/radio/2018/03/19/tea-party-patriots-youth-confront-gun-protests/
The walkout was, in fact, organized and funded by the same left-wing groups behind the Women’s March, including Planned Parenthood and the George Soros-funded moveon.org, and morphed into an anti-Trump, anti-National Rifle Association, “gun control” protest that spilled out of schools into the streets.

One of the questions on the survey asked about whether respondents were aware of another nationwide walkout planned for April 20.

Martin said that some 60 percent of the people taking the survey said they were not aware.

http://www.lifenews.com/2018/02/22/pro-abortion-womens-march-leader-behind-student-led-parkland-gun-control-protest/

Deena Katz, co-executive director of the Women’s March LA Foundation, submitted the application for a National Park Service permit for the March for Our Lives, the March 24 rally on the National Mall described as a student-led protest.

Women’s March LA spokeswoman Michelle Margolis said Ms. Katz, the Hollywood producer of ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” and HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher,” is working on the March For Our Lives in her personal capacity.

“The march is student led and Deena is acting at their behest to help with paperwork, being these logistics are out of their wheelhouse,” Ms. Margolis said in an email. “Also to be clear, Deena is helping as an individual. The women’s march is not associated.”

The Women’s March claimed to stand for all women. But what that really meant was women who agree with its agenda. The group’s convention excluded pro-life and conservative women – including conservative women in the media.

The Women’s March also threw out a center dedicated to helping pregnant women because it was pro-life.

Enough! National School Walkout

I hope they all waste as much money as possible.

Nuke the gay whales for Mohammad.     (and other good causes)

Speaking of wasting money..... how about that budget?  I know Trump felt he needed to fund the military, and get a deal done before another shutdown deadline.

But holy crap, it's like why do we even bother voting for anybody anymore?

I think congress should be required to have electroshock therapy every time they pass a non balanced budget (daily).   (they could even use appropriated (taxpayer) funds for that, we wouldn't mind at all)

[solo1]

Don't get too complacent NRA members and gun owners.. In all my years in the NRA (Texas Tower) this is the first time IMO that they (Demosocialists) have found a really big 'hook':  wet behind the ears kids as spokespersons, women with strong maternal instincts, outraged socialist teachers, lots of money backers, Hollywood idiots, idiots in Congress, and ignorance of the Bill of Rights.  Did I miss any one?

As for Trump, he has, so far, done the right thing. Can he be swayed? i don't know.

It concerns me that probably the most prevalent M.O. of politicians is to use whatever means they can to determine which way the public is leaning, then jump in front of them and holler "FOLLOW ME". Regardless of their previous history and platform they were elected on.  Bunch of snakes.

[Shasta]

I'm a history teacher at a high school and I just wanted to throw in my two cents.  What we see in the news is the vocal minority once again.  Don't believe the hype.  A majority of my students are awesome respectful kids who understand that it's not the guns that are the problem.  Also as a public school teacher I'd like to say that there are some teachers who choose to indoctrinate their students but in my experience that is the exception not the rule.   Colleges another story I feel they are very bias and like to make that clear. 

Like I tell my students sometimes empty vessels make the most noise. And I believe that's the case here.  What we see in the news is the vocal minority and they don't represent what a majority of Americans feel.

[Jess from VA]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Shasta.

I know a majority of America dosen't want gun banning, but I really had no idea what the numbers are on HS kids.

Glad to hear it is not as bad as I thought.

If they want to remove my civil right to have my firearms, I've decided I want to take away their civil right to vote.... until they are 30 or 35.

Why don't we institute the following list of restrictions as for who can vote for US president , representative and Senators -

18 IF you are on active duty (US military) or have been honorably discharged, or currently obilgated for service if in an officer training program for the same.

21 (upon completion of a Bachelor's degree). You're eligibity begins when you complete your Bachelor's.

18 Successful graduate and currently serving first responder.

24 - anybody else.

Yes - this is deliberately biased  towards those with public service or those with the maturity to cast a reasoned ballot.


Now - it doesn't have a prayer of being approved,,,,

Shasta thanks for pointing that out, I have heard that many conservative kids are actually shut out of the news media, threatened by other kids, belittled by others including teachers, adults and other peers. Sad state of affairs when the conservative view cannot even be presented on campus.

Well, prior to the "National Anthem Protest" of last year, the Patriots were a team I enjoyed watching but, due to the "Protest", I didn't get to watch a game all season.    Mr. Kraft's actions for this movement really disappoint me.      I had no idea he was of that ideology.     I guess I'll have to start referring to his team as the Anti-Patriots now.

I like your thinking.  Of course it has no chance.

Raising ages to drink, vote and own firearms all to 21 would at least offer some consistency.  There's no draft anymore.  Easy for me to say at 65.  Mostly, I'd like to move the vote to 21, and leave the others alone.  But if it takes all three, so be it.

What I want is anyone living on welfare (in whole or in major part) to forfeit their vote.  (Not the same as disability, although that is simply the same as welfare for millions in this country; though clearly not everyone on disability is a malingerer, millions are).

This also would have no chance, but I can dream.  The way you make the law, once someone qualifies for welfare per the rules, you make them voluntarily give up the right to vote in exchange for the money (their choice).  The courts would probably not find that cuts it, but that's the way to do it.

[Chrisj CMA]

The only change to voting eligibility I want is to not let anyone who lives solely on govt assistance for a number of consecutive years the vote

[Pete]

When the kids decide to protest "kids against violence" I will listen to them and help in any way I can.
Or maybe protest "kids against violent kids".
Or when they wish to pay homage to the fallen in a real honorable way.
Or when they want to bring attention to a real solution that will actually accomplish something.

There is no such thing as gun violence or knife violence or car violence or phone violence, there is however real violence by people and animals.

Rather than protest an inanimate object they need to wise up and realize they have a responsibility for their safety and the safety of the community (as everyone does) and come up with actions and ideas that will really make a difference.

Kids stop being stupid and stop being led around by those adults with a anti-freedom agenda.
I will be listening for a change in direction, but I will not hold my breath.

And to all the kids who have their head screwed on correctly and are not part of this pseudo protest you have my support and thanks for being good kids.

My sincere condolences to victims and families of violence everywhere.

My sincere condemnation to anyone trying to limit human rights anywhere.

Back in the days of Hindenburg's Germany, you needed 3 things to vote. You needed to be male, a landowner, and a citizen. I think we could meet in the middle and go with 2 things- "Federal Income Tax payer and a citizen". That would have been an insane suggestion in the days of the Founding Fathers, but back then the primary function of Federal government wasn't to take away paychecks and decide who to give the money to.

to add to the list of supporters, DELTA few a bunch of the kids for free. That's their right. They never flew me for free when I was going to a job, so now I'll just return the favor by pretending they're like Pan Am or Eastern. DELTA = Don't Even Leave The Airport.
