I’m pissed that people can’t handle differing opinions. And because they disagree, they want to shut it down so no one else can hear it. I can disagree without wanting to shut it down.

Didn't Joan of Arc lead many battles against the English as a teenager? And what about such and such pro-conservative videos on YouTube saying "13 Year Old SCHOOLS Liberal Lawmakers on [insert hot-potato issue here]!!!!"
I suppose I can reject both Joan of Arc and the said 13 year old conservative on grounds of their age. Right? If not, then you have no right to reject Hogg's positions simply because of his age.
Funny how ad hominem (circumstantial) works. In this case "circumstance" is the age, but many other circumstances can also fill the bill for any kind of argument you can think of -- including being "stupid", "lack common sense", etc.
Hogg is Joan of Arc now? Please. I can feel sorry for him for what he went through and also decide he is not helping his cause by calling for boycotts and bullying. This is why Trump was elected. People are fed up with being bullied.
It's an issue he feels strongly about, because it touched him personally. And it's an issue that gets nothing but lip service, slaughter after slaughter after slaughter. What would you prefer, that he mouths the usual rhetorical "thoughts and prayers" crap instead, the way our useless lawmakers continue to do?
Change happens when people care enough to MAKE it happen. Here's a young man who is not apathetic, not sitting at home playing video games or wasting his time on social media, but who cares enough to put himself out there, get involved, and try to be the change he wants to see.
We should be applauding that kind of engagement from our young people. Instead we have adults attacking him. That tells you how far down the tubes this country has gone.
Awww then maybe the poor widdle baby needs to hide if his widdle fewlings are hurt. Adult enough to speak and try to ruin the career of a political reporter but you can't criticize him because he's just a child?
A wonderful example of the left playing identity politics. Making it about the the speaker being just a child.
I don't listen to children who have been trotted out on stage by the emotional irrational left. Fresh off a tragedy the despicable left trots out these kids to yell and scream into the microphone.
But NOW is the time to listen to them and not before when they warned the adults of the shooters behavior?Instead lets NOT blame the authorities like the agency Hoggs Dad works for. Don't want to hold people accountable do we?
Why isn’t Hogg angry with the FBI for failing to follow up on two separate citizen reports to them that he was “going to be a professional school shooter”? The FBI and the cowards from Broward have the blood of 17 innocent people on their hands.
This little Nazi Hogg should get off the anti gun kick and go to the border and protest for illegals. That's the leftist protest du jour.
