A Nation of Children Wants a Nation of Gun Control

In the history of protests, there is probably nothing less inspiring than a high-schooler refusing to go to school. It's as if the children threatened not to eat their vegetables; or as if a bad Catholic, upset with the bedrock teachings of the Church, refused to go to Mass. You can refuse any number of things, but you can't refuse in the most fun way possible, and if you refuse your food, the response of your "oppressors" should be then don't eat your food. It's your life, and should you choose to ruin it by getting skinny or playing hookey, I say best of luck to you. If you really want to make an impression, you should douse yourself in gasoline and set yourself on fire. That way, we'll know you really mean it.

I'm not against children, but I am 100% against "think of the children." I like to think of what's best for the grown-ups. Whatever works best for free, honest, informed, self-reliant, and armed adults works best for their dependents, and if children are anything, they are dependent. If they grow up into anything, it is more parents. If you love a child, remember that the purpose of cuteness is to make sure kids turn into adults – who in turn are in charge of making us more children.

As they play computer/video cames that have guns in them.

Just thought of the irony.

A nation of children indoctrinated by pubic school teachers and textbooks, kids’ TV, MSM, social media. Lied to constantly about women, drugs, gender, ADHD, socialism, immigrants, Republicans and guns.

‘Assault rifle’ (from the WWII German ‘Sturmgewehr’) is a selectable fire gun with both semi-automatic and automatic modes. Automatic mode guns require very special permitting to buy/own, are not generally available and have not been used in shootings.

We are in a battle for the minds and hearts of our children, and we’re losing. Tagline.
