People ridicule him because he wants to use the first amendment to protest the second.

If the government takes away our second amendment rights, they can take away other rights as well.

Next thing you know, we'll end up like the Soviet Union or Cuba.

For some reason, that I don’t understand, you seem to resent younger people taking a stand for what they believe in. This is our next generation and the older generation always ridicules them

It's cognitive dissonance.

“Cops are out of control.”

“Only those racist, out of control cops should have guns. And they should use their guns to forcibly confiscate peoples' guns.”

For the 10,000th time...the right of gun ownership does not come from the 2nd Amendment. It is the natural law of property rights; it exists with or without the 2A.

Governments do not grant rights.

And we wonder where school kids learn how to bully.

He evidently has struck some fear into gun nuts, because this "kid" has been attacked, called every ugly name in the book, and he still stays strong. He is very much like the anti Vietnam war protesters we saw in the late 60's, who forced the government to rethink what the Hell we were doing in that God forsaken country.


Hogg is the NRA's worst nightmare.
They sure seem to be quaking in their boots. Actually, what happened to mr "NO MORE". I guess no more meant no more appearances?

It's like the old ad about parents who use drugs.
Dad: "Son where did you learn to be a bully?"
Son: "I learned it from you dad!"
Voice-over: "Parents who are bullies, have kids who become bullies."

IMHO, the conservatives are the bullies. They use entirely hateful speech about people who disagree with immigration or guns or whatever and then misdirect if challenged. I mean don't get me wrong, I would not be surprised if SOME bullying would effect school shootings but for the most part the shooters plan to die but do not leave a suicide note or don't say much of anything because they have some sort of dissociative disorder that prevents them from showing feelings. I wish people would actually study the more recent school shootings to really get a true profile and know what does actually make it up so we can stop blaming death metal, gothic lifestyles and video games; and show the real causes: accessibility to guns and mental illnesses (that are often unknown until it's too late.)

Immigration? Really? Talk about two different parts of nothing.

The point from my post exactly. I mentioned a whole bunch of things that are normal political topics and it turns into an attack with the facepalm emoji just like I said Trump supporters do when you challenge them. I win, thank you.
