As a call for action continues from Florida high school students and teens around the nation, Furman Political Science Professor, Dr. Danielle Vinson, believes the generation might be able to enact change in Washington.

"For them to come up and start calling out politicians, I think that's a very powerful image. It's something that we haven't really seen a lot in the wake of school shootings," said Dr. Vinson.

They didn’t need to be brainwashed. They lived it although some didn’t.

I think it perfectly reasonable to make the legal age for many things 21...but it should be consistent...all of it, alcohol, voting, gun ownership - make it 21 and require younger age people hunting to be always accompanied (supervised) by someone over 21.

As long as we are consistent about the age of majority, I think that’s perfectly reasonable.

It is also a a reason to change the voting age back to 21, unless you are serving in the Military or are a Veteran!

Robert Heinlein got it right - no citizenship rights until after military service!
