Most causes like to focus on a specific issue, like school shooting. Just because the students chose to focus on school shootings, doesn't mean they don't care about police brutality, or war crimes happening around the world. Yes, currently school shootings are an important cause to these students because 17 of their classmates and teachers were recently gunned down inside of their school. Its personal to them.
But yeah, continue calling survives of a horrific school shooting privileged.
They're far more privileged than the dozens who are shot every week in Chicago and Baltimore. At least these kids have a safe neighborhood to return to.

I'm glad no one was seriously injured or killed.
"Where's Hogg"...
Maybe at home pounding out his book, lol.
Or, maybe in Illinois helping them push through the agenda in replacing armed guards with therapists (are the therapists supposed to be body shields for students or something?)

And how exactly are armed guards preventing school shootings?

Yeah, so safe. I know I would feel safe in a place where I witnessed 17 of my friends and teachers being gunned down. How privilaged they are to be able to deal with survivors guilt for the rest of their lives, reliving what happened every time a new school shooting makes national news.

If only all kids could be so lucky.
Last I checked these suburban kids didn't have dozens of shootings in their neighborhoods every week like the kids in the ghetto.

And yet they've still gone through a very traumatic experience that none of us would ever want to be a part of.
Just because 17 of their friends amd teachers were killed within minutes instead of spread out over years and years does not make what happened any less of a tragedy.
They don't if the armed guard hides outside. Nothing helps when the cops also hide outside.
So then what is the purpose of these armed guards? I don't see why they are more important than getting these kids the mental help they so desperately need. Wouldn't it be better to never have a school shooting then to hope the armed guard is going to save the day?
Because even if the armed guard succeeds, it still means he had to kill a student.
Where is the left and hogg? I have not seen a peep?
Is it because it does not matter that nobody was killed?
