"I’m going to start off by putting this price tag right here as a reminder for you guys to know how much Marco Rubio took for every student's life in Florida," Parkland survivor David Hogg says at #MarchForOurLives.

That is the horrifying moment that the anti-gun movement lost the chance of ever winning me over. David Hogg is emerging as a skinny young Robespierre, so filled with righteousness and certainty, and stone-cold purity.

I doubt their activism will fade if they go to college, but they might not have the spotlight on THEM all the time, which they seem to crave.

Are Republicans going to let a celebrity-financed high school kid tell them what to do?

[Dilbert San Diego]

Yes, let’s do this for Democrats. Many of our major cities are full of Democrats, and have mostly Democrat elected officials, as well as residents.

Such laws applied to Democrats, should see rates of shootings zoom downward to near zero, if the laws were really effective.

Robespierre getting his day in court.

"I see something Hitlerian in him."

Satanic. Looks like a VERY angry young man. He's right about one thing, though: I'd never trust HIM with a gun.

[Flavious_Maximus]

Robespierre was a leader in the French revolution. He was THE primary instigator responsible for the reign of terror, just like this Hogg fellow.

We know what happened to Robespierre.

Had to do a quick read up on Robespierre. Interesting, but not surprising (his rhetoric and ironic rise and demise).

Hogg would do well to stop skipping school and read some history. But I doubt he will. He may be dead before I am (47) by his own ideals.

Formation of the Committee on Student Safety is his next play.

That's not "purity", that's ideological demagoguery. He is as extreme as they come.

I don’t know who the one on the left is, but if you thinned the hair a bit, he’d look just like Lee Harvey Oswald.

[House Atreides]

Hogg currently has the most punchable face in America. That’s his real claim to fame.
*****************************************************
Hell, his jaw is so small, almost non-existent, that a fist would have difficulty finding it.

>> “Camera Hogg is a real piece of work!” <<

He was brought to Florida from California to do this job. He’s ‘experienced.’

[Kartographer]

I could be wrong, but I believe there will come a day when you remember (and curse) the first time you heard of David Hogg.

Me thinks the lad has memorized the entire dialog from the 1968 movie “Wild In The Streets”, not realizing it was a comedy.

And his daddy is a former FBI agent, and mommy hates Trump completely.

Gross Hogg is soon going to replace Barky Obama as Gun Salesman of the Year.

[Hot Tabasco]

who is the guy on the left?

[steve86]

He’s one of the most godless looking people I’ve seen.

[Steve_Seattle]

"Every time I see a photo of David Hogg, there is an inescapable radiating of pure hate and MURDER in his eyes. This is a kid who would KILL those who he disagrees with, if he could get away with it."

Many of us see the same thing, yet the media don't question him at all, and treat him as a hero. In fact, people who criticize him are accused of being "mean."
