Students take the lead, but politicians will be out in force at March for Our Lives (anti-gun march)
Washington Post ^ | March 23, 2018 | Jenna Portnoy

The high-school-student-organized March for Our Lives this weekend has put politicians in an unusual spot: the back seat.

Although students are the driving force behind the D.C. march and sister marches around the country, elected officials and candidates from the District, Maryland and Virginia are finding ways to participate — chartering bus loads of constituents, speaking at pre-march rallies and simply planing to be in the crowd.

D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) is leading a contingent of D.C. students, joined by most members of the D.C. Council and Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D). They will meet at Folger Park on Capitol Hill before heading to the rally site on Pennsylvania Avenue.

I figure that rfp1234 PROBABLY meant terrorists.....but being a victim of typing TRUMP and having it come up on the screen as RUMP, I’m not one to point out anyone else’s funny autocorrect things.

Who the hell cares about this nonsense on a Saturday? I’ll be enjoying my day off like most people and won’t waste a moment on this propaganda. I thank them for choosing to do this tomorrow.

I have Leftist F-Book friends who have decided (sometimes from prompting from their nearly adult children) this is all the fault of the Baby Boomers because the Baby Boomers have been too weak in the face of Conservatism. They are excited to ‘follow the children, who know better than we did’. Not kidding. WE CANNOT LOSE ANYMORE ELECTIONS AT ALL!!

When you see the videos of the Anti-Second Amendment march (which will likely be violent) you are looking at traitors who are giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Have a little faith. Trump is most definitely not anti-gun.

He signed the bloated budget because he had no other option — they were going to override his veto and that would have made him look powerless, which would have been much worse.

He will take care of things. He didn’t get to where he was in his private life by being stupid. He is very rich, he didn’t need to be president. He is truly trying to MAGA, but he has so many enemies, he has to take things slowly. He lost a battle, but he isn’t going to lose the war.
