Spielberg, Capshaw and Katzenbergs also donate $500,000 to ‘March for Our Lives’ rally organized by Florida students
A number of Hollywood heavyweights, including George Clooney and Oprah Winfrey, announced hefty donations Tuesday to help fund the “March for Our Lives” rally against gun violence that is being organized by students from Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., the site of last week’s massacre that left 17 students and staff members dead.
Clooney and his wife, human-rights attorney Amal Clooney, announced a $500,000 donation Tuesday morning to help offset the costs of the march in Washington.
“Amal and I are so inspired by the courage and eloquence of these young men and women,” George Clooney said in a statement. “Our family will be there on March 24 to stand side by side with this incredible generation of young people from all over the country, and in the name of our children Ella and Alexander, we’re donating 500,000 dollars to help pay for this groundbreaking event. . . . Our children’s lives depend on it.”

What do they plan to spend it on, paying school shooters to stop?
How far would this money go toward hardening schools?
So, that’s at least a million and a half kicked in. with the two quarter million donations by various Soros entities.
What, are they going to lease them a 767 and limos at both ends for a year, and put them up in the fanciest hotels and feed them at the best restaurants?
Or maybe it is all bullpoop, money laundering and fraudulent tax deductions.
This “student march” is astroturf propaganda is the Occupy / BLM for the 2018 election season. The goal is to get the Democrat base all wee wee’d up and out to the polls. Couldn’t be more obvious.
Oprah: I'll donate $50K and throw in 30 automobiles so they can spread their crap easier.
What's the biggest difference between Clooney and Oprah??? --- Oprah is smart enough to know she shouldn't run for office.
“All these sanctmonious gun-grabbers “for the children” don’t really give a d@mn about children...”
No, they don’t. They’re restless, unfulfilled adolescents needing to feel important, needing to be noticed. How many of the protestors do any (not school directed) volunteer work of any kind?
Answering them with “What about the thousands of innocent babies murdered by abortion?!” is useful in creating cognitive dissonance and doubts in them.
I have heard some rumors that Cloonaise is going to run in 2020.
