So what if he's a teenager. That doesn't give him to immunity to criticism.
Just because you CAN do something, doesnt mean you should.

Yet he and his sister are fussing because they have to carry clear backpacks. Someone please tell these kids you can't have your cake and eat it too. Don't cry because you want change and some changes happen for their safety but then they cry it's violates their constitutional rights or their rights are infringed upon.

Here's the thing...they are still kids. They are still learning. Hogg needs to look at both sides of the argument and not just what his opinion is. I've said it once, I will say it again. Laws are there they just need to be enforced more than what they are.

Criticism is one thing; calling him names and engaging in conduct to smear and slur him is another

So which of his stories is true? I'm going to guess the first one about taking the camera to school - since otherwise why would he have the camera? https://www.facebook.com/jasonanthon...8351118001230/

Here's the transcript:

Story 1: "On the day of the shooting, I got my camera and got on my bike and rode as fast as I could, three miles from my house to the school, to get as much video, and to get as many interviews as I could, because I knew that this could not be another mass shooting."

Story 2: "Well I was in my AP Environmental Science class when the first gunshots rang out. I immediately looked around our classroom and told the teacher to close the door - she closed the door - and then, right when she did so, the fire alarm [unintelligible], so we all started instinctually [sic] and stupidityly [sic] in hindsight, getting out of there walking out. As we were walking out" (end of clip)

Both are. the first is taken out of context and covers his actions AFTER the shooting.

Please stop this conspiracy nonsense. It just makes you look bad.

I don't think that people should criticize him personally, however, his viewpoint definitely needs to be criticized. And this is coming from a Democrat, by the way.

If the national Democrats keep pushing this crazy anti-gun stuff, they will lose some seats they would've otherwise won in the midterm elections. Luckily, the WV Democrats are not crazy anti-gunners like the national Democrats.

^^^^ ALL THE ABOVE IS SIMPLY NOTHING BUT BS !! ^^ It's so obvious there for sure minor segment of society who has been and has had continued influenced education by "Nationalistic" type folks! You know the one's that DJT claims are "Good People too"

Listen UP.. Un-regulated Gun's with ll the loopholes NRA lobbyists has bought from lawmakers will and now be held accountable!! THEY will all be voted out, whether or not you agree or not!. In fact, JUST maybe NRA lobbying will ( Gun Manufacturer's) lose ALL credibility!!

BTW~~ BS has been recognized for a VERY LONG time.. BUT it is NOW (finally) under fire because of the LASTEST target ( Parkland) & to blame/target the victims just makes YOU or any other look Militant>right along with Gun lobbyists! NRA is Not the original as I knew.. BUT got highjacked by Lapierre to take in $$ from Manufacturers NOT to mention $$$ from Russia!!

"Loves his country" and "hates his fellow countrymen" I see. How very impressed we are you with your pseudo patriotism.

You honestly think it's wrong to critisize a foul-mouthed 17 year old?

Come on.

A lovely swerve, but pointless. The fact remains that you were attempting to present yourself as ignorant either to play a part or becasue you truly are. I don't buy that it's the latter so you clearly think there's something to be gained by feigning ignorance.

Oh you mean doing the same thing he is doing is off limits.

Leftist Golden Rule = What ever I do is OK for me but don't you ever try it.
