Yes, they certainly have. Thank goodness.

Emma Gonzalez, a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, addressed a gun control rally on Saturday in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, days after a gunman entered her school in nearby Parkland and killed 17 people.
Below is a full transcript of her speech:
We haven't already had a moment of silence in the House of Representatives, so I would like to have another one. Thank you.
Every single person up here today, all these people should be home grieving. But instead we are up here standing together because if all our government and President can do is send thoughts and prayers, then it's time for victims to be the change that we need to see. Since the time of the Founding Fathers and since they added the Second Amendment to the Constitution, our guns have developed at a rate that leaves me dizzy. The guns have changed but our laws have not.

Yeah, let’s abolish the 2nd Amendment because some overly-emotional teenage girls demands it. Great plan.
gonzalez should go give a speech to the sheriff and hillary...

Ah I dont care where she came from. We all know CNN has a file of anti Trump stories and this twat fit the bill for tonite’s mandatory and daily anti Trump stories.
I say we only allow people in high school to make society's decisions. No one over thirty is allowed in Congress or any political office. Once a person reaches the age of thirty, let's send them to "Carousel" and never see them again.
Down with Grups!
Children should be seen and not heard.
The newest dystopia theme.
Right on the money. I have owned guns for over 55 years and never shot anything more than paper and a tin can. So according to her, I should turn in my guns that I have been using for decades before she was even born.
More money from my pocket to the NRA and other such organizations.
That’s nonsense too. The kids learn what they are taught.
That “rally” was nothing more than a probably Russian funded/Soros funded Anti Trump rally..did you all see the signs such as “Impeach Trump” and “Vote them out” are they accusing President Trump of shooting those kids? Gee I dont remember such a rally when Sandy Hook occurred..guess 26 dead kids didn’t deserve a rally..or was it because their messiah Obama was in office so can’t go against the great one..Guns have been around for hundreds of years, I have never heard a story of a gun picking ITSELF up and shooting anyone
Yes, they certainly have. Thank goodness.
Do we know anything about Nikolas Cruz’s birth parents?
We know all about the adoptive parents, but not the birth parents.
Was he an adoptee from RUSSIA?
Any Russian organizers involved in this rally?
I can’t afford to spend it. I can’t afford not to!
Tell this gal that her fave liberals are completely falling down on the job. All they can say for folks like this troubled Nick is don’t let them get a gun? Where are your bleeding hearts? Why don’t you care about the hell such folks see? Your care is so shallow!
Sorry, Ms Gonzales. The wisdom of the Framers trumps your emotional snowflakiness.
We’re keeping our guns.
The lie is still spreading that the President repealed a law banning guns from mentally ill people. The fact is they were banning people that receive social security and need someone to manage their finances from gun ownership.
And she wonders why no permit is required to carry a concealed rifle or shotgun.
Emma Gonzalez.....half-baked and dumb as a box of rocks.
Just put up more “Gun Free Zone” signs, low IQ Emma.
Yes, I’m very shallow. Don’t touch my guns. Why didn’t she and her fellow students who knew the guy was a threat and nutcase turn him into the police before he started shooting?
Isn’t Nikolas a Russian name? And yesterday the government started enforcing stricter regulations on adoption agencies dealing with foreign children.
I’ve come to the point where I just tell these people “guns are off the table.”
We’ve tried to be reasonable with them, and the response we get is always another emotional outburst, or a different angle of attack.
