17 and 18 year olds are adults, essentially,.....and ignorant
They are still school kids. Young adults of voting age are being shot to death in colleges, too.
Who is ignorant? The targets, or some adult poking away on his computer safe and sound in his basement? If shooters begin targeting old fat guys, I don't think the kids would be called ignorant any more.
How is name calling ever going to help gun ownership anyway? Do you think calling names will stop the kids?
Better think twice about that. Those kids have seen the blood and bodies of their friends in the hallways of their school. That sort of thing makes a lasting impression.
Explain then why professional athletes almost always have drop dead gorgeous WAGs, even if they're dumb and ugly.
Betas try to impress women to get them into bed by pretending to be feminist, when in reality they're insecure misogynists.
They pretend to be racially "woke" by being self-hating caucasians, when in actuality they live in lily-white neighborhoods that are probably that way due to gentrification. They usually don't have any real black friends.
Not sure I conveyed my point clearly, going by that answer. Ah well.

#OLDFATGUYSLIVESMATTER is that too long for a hashtag?
He's a trauma survivor. Like all survivors, he should work through his emotions with a therapist first. If he still holds the same opinion, then fine, be an activist. Right now, he is too unstable/emotional to make rational decisions. Sorry, but it is what it is .

I'm still waiting for people to recognize the real truth. Many of these shooters are likely bullied by kids like Hogg who are so "popular" and well spoken and have such intolerance for anyone who dares to have a different opinion and doesnt conform to his "norm". None of these kids will come out and say "Oh, um, oops, we bullied, disrespected, and made the shooter feel like an outcast, so this is partially our fault" F these kids, I saw them and dealt with them growing up and as an adult. Our constitutional rights are not subject to the inaine BS of a bunch of immature HS and childish antics. If you aren't even old enough to benefit from these rights, you certainly aren't old enough to scream about others not deserving them.
Well, Hogg pretty much said it himself why he's doing all of this...
At about 5:40 in that profanity-laced video of Hogg that is circulating
"it's also been great advertising for me in terms of acting..."
hmm, no he doesn't have an agenda at all
He won't be the first kid who puts his emotions to use as a career. Andrew Brietbart did it too, as did Ann Coulter, Sarah Palin, and a bunch of others.
As an agenda, knowing a person's own emotions can be a pretty good way of putting them to use when the time comes. Money and fame isn't always the object, either.
After all, President Trump already had plenty of money and fame, and didn't he use his acting skills to land they job he has now? Yup. Sure did. Using profanity once in a while doing it too.

I agree for the most part, but, he is using this for "money and fame".
In the very same video, Hogg was talking about Rick Scott....
"He's turning this political"
"Oh absolutely opportunistic, he does not give a f*** about these kids lives, at all. He only cares about his reelection"
Hogg is pretty much describing himself, though change "reelection" to 'being a movie star'.
Hogg is a hypocrite, he is using those kids for his own agenda.
I don't know much about Scott and maybe what Hogg is saying is true, I don't know, but, Hogg is doing exactly what he's slamming Scott for.
