I was watching Alisyn Camerota interview these kids on Youtube and while scrolling through the comments, someone said that David Hogg is a crisis actor. At first, I didn't believe it ... but here is the link

WTF? Either he loves the spotlight or is he actually a crisis actor? Apparently, there is a video surfacing of him rehearsing lines.

Believe me, what happened is awful and we need reform to both guns and mental health. But if people are using crisis actors to push a political agenda, thats up.

Edit: Here is the video of him rehearsing lines. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyEAmcGnzq8

He is reportedly connected to the FBI. Not sure that they are crisis actors but very potentially picked to be influenced by gun-ban pushers.

The Redondo Beach video was published in August. You know, summer break, when kids are on vacation? Oh darn, there goes a perfect good conspiracy theory. So sorry.

No. He's obviously nervous and starting over to clearly articulate what he experienced.

I understanding that. But what are the odds? Statistically speaking, probably few and far between. Just seems odd. And there is the video of him rehearsing lines. I'm typically not the one to start a conspiracy theory but even after rewatching the Alisyn Cameroto, the keep looking towards the left of the screen, as if they are reading a script or being coached.

Someone has to be the face of the survivors/ Never Again movement. Why not him?

Hogg is an aspiring journalist.

No shortage of media have attempted to smear him for speaking out against Trump and other politicians.

First son, Don Jr " liked" tweets that criticized him for speaking out against Trump and other politicians. Really bad form coming from an adult.

Trump has tossed a bone and created the perfect optic by advocating to ban bump stocks. In doing so he creates a perception he is willing to " do something" while doing nothing at all. It's up to Congress.

I have seen the same person on the local news here at least 5 times, and they tend to have prepared statements too. Are they crisis actors? No, they are just people that are involved in the community. I was on the local news after a city hall meeting, I had some points that I wanted to get out so I wrote them down and looked at my notes because I'm not good at public speaking. It's understandable that a teen would want to practice what they wanted to say on the national news, most teens are not accomplished public speakers.
