Meanwhile, the NRA quadrupled its digital ad budget after parkland, and has been flooding social media.

Gotta keep the cult fed with fresh meat. How long before Dana Loesch, NRA's paid crisis actress, does another video, this time condemning kids/young adults for exercising their rights?

The same folks saying that these kids are indoctrinated Democrats pushing a paid for agenda don't realize that they are doing the SAME EXACT THING for a different side. The irony is astounding.

I loved the video of a reporter walking through the crowd of kids asking "So, you want to ban assault weapons right?" YES,YES, YES! Then he asked "what is a assault weapon" and the answers were just precious.
Ummm, ahhh, ummmm.

Yeah, these kids are soooo smart and know way more than any adult does...

I think it should be difficult to purchase a firearm, and that one should have extensive background checks required to do so. That way those people like the Va. Tech shooter, the Parkland shooter, the Columbine shooters, might be prevented from purchasing these weapons. Doing nothing is not working.

A lot of gun owners go ballistic when the mere mention of sensible gun regulation is brought up. I'm not one of them.
you must spread some reputation around before giving it to odanny again.

Exactly. Great post, odanny.

They are scared, as are the people rushing to spend thousands of dollars on additional firearms. FOX News calling them extremists, and others pulling the nazi card are all signs of people who feel threatened, because such people always resist to personal attacks.

Often, they get plea deals, and are right back out on the streets to do it again. WHY? Why aren't people marching to stop that?
Organize a march. I'm in.

Every time. After every shooting (school or otherwise), these people rush out to buy guns. More guns. More!

It’s insane.

Well, they know Cruz assaulted them with a firearm and killed 17 of their friends. What else do you need to know?

Pathetic.

The mood of the entire country is most certain for common sense gun reform.

Face it - you're outnumbered.
Lol. I'd be very careful speaking for everyone in the country. It's not the loudmouths on the streets, "it's the quiet ones you gotta watch".

A flagging system as the one I outlined would have caught him.
