I've been watching. I'm very impressed with what those young adults have been able to accomp!ish.
Perhaps this time will be different. No one is asking to outlaw guns. They/ we just want sensible gun regulations. No one needs an assault rifle unless you're a solider.

Some of you seem not to care what they been through because of these guns and assault weapons. Selfish?
This is not a political thread so I won't be debating in this thread.
Share your vibes or go play in the trump piles.

Why do all these people wait until a school shooting to protest guns and the NRA?
Why aren't they out en mass across every major city, every weekend, to protest all the gang killings?
The problem is that the 2nd Amendment--nor any other amendment for that matter--bestow anything (see the 9 amendment). It expresses the codification of the rights that must be recognized. What you are referring to are legal privileges. Only that which can be granted and can be revoked. Rights are not revocable, because the government..i.e. other people...meaning you... cannot tell me what I have a right to do so long as I--personally-- do not attempt violence to your person.

Thank you to ALL* of you who remain BRIGHT, who took time to send positive vibrations.
They did good? & did not produce any negative distracting riots.
For those who keep misunderstanding they are NOT speaking up about or attempting to chase a supposed leftist based political agenda to take away the guns? Neither am I.
The youth and their parents ARE however screaming out to the adults in power to come up with better weapons regulations to hopefully save more lives from gun violence...
Regulations that can prevent or limit the opportunity for another mass shooting with the use of a high caliber-power assault style rifle/long arm...
Maybe they just want a more peaceful future then what we are all presently subjected to right now.
I can respect that. Can you?

The issues are elders attached to their guns and gun laws. Who fear changing political agenda due to losing their voter base. Seems more toolish then anything...

Did you know assault rifles were illegal already (unless you go through miles of red tape and pay over $30,000 just for the rifle itself)? Do you know what an assault rifle is?
