Around the country, thousands upon thousands of students walked out of their classrooms on March 14 to peacefully protest inaction on gun laws in the aftermath of the deadly Florida school shooting last month.

And then there was Antioch High School near Nashville, Tenn.

Some of the students who walked out of class at the school Wednesday pulled down an American flag hanging from a flagpole, video shows.

Some students jumped on a police car, Nashville police told News Channel 5.

And more generally, there appeared to be chaos on school grounds, judging from videos posted on Facebook. Those videos have been shared thousands of times.

So, in their walkout these “students” demonstrate exactly why we need the second amendment.

I well remember the days of gathering around the flag pole and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

I have a child in HS. Organizers were leveraging support by telling the kids that by walking out of they were demonstrating their sympathy and support for the victims in FL. So many of these HS kids were emotionally manipulated into “protesting” in addition to the promise of getting out of school without consequence.

But on all the news these kids are being portrayed as anti-gun or whatever. It’s a total set up that most don’t know. My kid did not participate as there was a complete understanding of the deceptive emotional manipulation be used.

These kids do learn. Their actions prove what we know them to be learning.

Actual education? Not so much. The left likes ignorant animals they can control.

They were given a school-sanctioned opportunity to act a fool in public, so they took it.

Someone needs to go to prison over this. It’s how you get people to grasp the concept of the rule of law.
