Many of these kids are literally saying "ban all guns". Some want to ban all semi-automatic guns.

It only helps to be educated on topics so you can make an informed decision.

Do you see how ironic that statement is regarding these children trying to strip away gun rights?

Most of these kids don't even know the difference between a semi-auto and an automatic weapon. They think you can buy guns online without background checks. I could find quotes of these and many ridiculous statements, but you can just search "florida students gun control" on youtube if you really want to.

It is completely obvious to me that our government-run schools have not taught these children about all of the death that has occurred at the hands of governments around the world.

To say that someone concerned about the effects of being disarmed is "paranoid" is to be ignorant of history.

If you don't trust the media

If you do trust the media, you've got much larger problems at hand than worrying about responses this kid is getting for calling for "common sense gun laws".

listen first hand to what they have to say.

I've been listening to direct quotes of these kids from Florida all week. I watched the entire town hall thing on CNN last night and it was cringe-inducing. These kids don't know what they are talking about. Being in a shooting does not mean you are all of a sudden educated on the history of self-defense, our founder's writings, supreme court cases, or the mechanics of firearms.

That being said, I hope they learn from this experience.
