You sound like you are going in order to start trouble or fight with people.

Why would you think that is a "good time"? These people are going for a peaceful protest
Does anyone really believe that?

Better than just killing them and getting it over with now, instead of paying dearly later.

The adults that are pushing these kids come across as very desperate because the winds of change are NOT on their side. Every single day, more and more people are becoming more educated about freedom and liberty and their God-given rights. These children are naive, ignorant, and extremely uneducated in the areas of History and Life. And they are being completely exploited because of it.
There will be tens and hundreds of thousands of teens participating in these organized marches. There will also be tens of millions of teens not participating. Their views on the 2nd amendment will be many and varied and will evolve over time. We're not talking about a monolithic voting block here. They are being presented as such, as if the marchers and the kids they are interviewing on CNN represent all of teenage America, but it is not the case.

Yes, those who exploit children to promote political causes should definitely exhibit signs of humiliation. But yet, they don't. They seem quite pleased with themelves. And THAT is part of the problem. No shame.
This is NOT a "kids" movement. This is Democrats, Education, Democrat funding groups (teacher's UNIONS), and Bloomberg, and Soros using kids in an attempt to undermine the RIGHTS of law abiding citizens who pay their taxes to most of these groups.

When my rights are being attacked, I don't squirm, I fight back with every legal means available.

Protesting is a right. If you hurry now, you can still edit to add more buzz words to your post.

This is NOT a protest. It is a government sponsored display of PARTISAN POLTICS partially funded by the American taxpayer who largely does not agree with it, yet the media tells you otherwise.

If you hurry up, maybe you can get the Constitution abolished. Good luck with that.
