Meaningless? Nope. It's being reported by the MSM. I posted the links.
The same organization that organized the pussyhat marches organized the student walk out protest and the upcoming march.
It just so happens that their leaders (all 3 are women of color) are friends and associates of Louis Farrakhan, and all have refused to disavow their relationship/association with him, even after his recent inflammatory statements.
Do your research and make sure you know with whom you're associating. Sounds like you and almost all the kids are being used as duped pawns to support a nefarious group.
Civil Disobedience is a time honored tradition. Not all laws are just laws. The way they get changed is by getting attention focused on them. That is what the walkout and the march are designed to do, and we will win.
and yet, neither they or you can come up with a solid definition of what an assault weapon is
Maybe you need to go sign up some kindergarteners and nursery school kids too. They've got as much pull and critical thinking skills as many of the kids your tromping around with.
If what you call a "win" is what I think it is no, you'll have your flash in the pan but that's all it will be. Forgotten in time just like the pu$$y hats were.
I guess if you can't form a good enough argument to convince actual thinking adults you do what you and the other radicals are doing, go after little kids...
We don't need any arguments for "thinking adults", and we aren't trying to convince you, either. We're after Blood Money Sucking GOP politicians. We will change their minds, or we will change their addresses. Watch us.
and yet, neither they or you can come up with a solid definition of what an assault weapon is
We prefer the term "Weapons of War" as proposed by the Fourth Circuit. It's a much better term, since the term "assault weapon" was coined for rifles with a fully automatic setting, and coopted by the gun magazines to apply to what you like to call "scary black guns", even though nobody is afraid of them. When you guys get your poop in a pile and decide what they are, let us know.
For the time being, and for our purposes, this is what we're after.
There are kids at my daughter's school who used to attend Stoneman Douglas High School.
Needless to say, my daugher's school had an interesting walkout. Those kids were quite moving as they spoke of their former classmates. I realized plenty of people are harsh enough to think that all of it was fake and that these kids who are protesting are pawns of the "left," but it's not and they're not and to be so cruel to teenagers who fear being shot at school because you're worried the "gubmint" is coming for your guns is just crazy.

Cruel? The "Gubmint"?
Really?
So you think this government is infallible? Do you think this "gubmint" is perfect and virtuous and good and omnipotent and should control all of us in all their good ways? Has the American "gubmint" ever been bad or done bad things to the citizenry and is it at all possible that there could be nefarious and devious motives behind what they do...ever?
Have you ever read history?
It's interesting to me that people like you at the same breath say cops (the "gubmint") have racist tendencies , that Donald Trump (the "gubmint") has all kinds of devious motives, but yet you are the same people that are arguing they should have more control over you/us/men.
Can you see how that comes off as...strange, at least?
Do you want to answer or not? Why should any of us turn our guns in to a government run by incompetents' and shady types, like Donald Trump? Heck I don't even trust Trump, and I voted for him and support him!
They might not have at YOUR school but at others the school gave them all the supplies to make protest signs etc.. Sorry, misuse of public materials...
Do you have any sort of link to support that claim?

You have no idea what a "weapon of war" is. You and your ilk just make up scary sounding names to justify your irrational hysteria.
I've decided that Toyota pickups are weapons of war since they seem to be the vehicle of choice in third-world battle zones. Using your incredibly weak "logic", we should ban them.

Y'all tried that using Bernie and Hillary (the unstable), how'd that work out for you? Who ended up in office?
Here's the thing, all you've got is some caterwauling vs $$$$$$$$ and that pesky thing called the Constitution.
You realize it's NOT going to work out in your favor right? You'll get some expansion of background checks (whatever the hell that turns out to be), you'll get some further legislation on nuts and guns (even though it's already been legislated) and you may get bump stocks but that's about it.
Yeah, to see that level of profanity....I kind of wonder if there's might be more than meet the eyes about him? One Twitter poster claimed then David Hogg posted this tweet in June 2016. https://twitter.com/onew1tchyw0man/s...82306614632450
The Wayback Machine didn't archived David Hogg's tweets before 2018 unfortunately, so take it with a pinch of salt, it might be fake news.
