The David Hogg experiment would be captivating if we were all just spectators, but the latest twist in the spectacle reveals a destructive element sure to metastasize quickly.
Last Wednesday, Fox News host Laura Ingraham tweeted, David Hogg Rejected By Four Colleges To Which He Applied and whines about it. (Dinged by UCLA with a 4.1 GPA ... totally predictable given acceptance rates.)

There are solid reports he was not even at school the day of the shooting. He supposedly admitted in an interview that “he hopped on his bike and rode to school when he heard what was going on.” He is a foul mouthed kid being supported and coached by Soros funded groups. Nothing but a punk.
Thanks for alerting us to Vox Day's book SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police (Kuovola, Finland: Castalia House, 2015). This book is hard to find, but it looks like it's must reading for the Trump era.
A GPA of 4.2 out of 4 paired with an SAT score of 1270 out of 1600 fairly screams MAJOR GRADE INFLATION. It has caused a mediocre student to believe he is a genius — no doubt he thinks something is wrong with the SAT test. Colleges are not oblivious to this phenomenon.
He won't last long under the fiery, heated flame of the media when he missteps and they start going after him.
If he get's his undies in a bunch over Laura Ingraham's comment, he's in for a big surprise if he thinks everyone will continue to coddle him. He's got a thin skin.
My twin daughters took it this year- one made a 1420, the other a 1260. Good enough for Juco, or a State college, but not anything that’ll get you into a prestigious school.
Thanks calvincaspian.
"I've had some students approach me privately to talk to me about it, but I should note that those student activists none of them were ever in any danger during this whole thing...none of them except for the one girl Samantha Fuentes," the faculty member said during an interview with NRATV on the condition of anonymity. The Stoneman Douglas staffer continued, "But I have students in my class that were shot, but you don't see them. They have the most personal experience of anyone except for that one girl."
So the Broward school system is not only protecting bad students, they are also pumping up grade averages to make themselves look good and get more money.
Govenor Scott where is the investigation?
Nah, he’s a jerk and will probably always be a lib jerk. I’m disappointed that Laura apologized to this puke. He is the one who put himself out there and used foul, insulting language against anyone who disagreed with him. So is he some great revolutionary as he claims or some poor, little kid who is in shock after a traumatic experience and is venting his emotional turmoil? Che Guevera or Dennis the Menace?
He needed a serious whooping years ago.
I’m going to have to learn to stop believing the stuff I read even on occasion.
So she wasn’t ridiculing him for being rejected, but for pointing out he was whining about being rejected as it is just something that happens and not something to whine over.
Nothing to the magnitude that it was portrayed in the media. She should have known better, but this is clearly being lied about and blown out of proportion. The Left knows how to do nothing else.
This appears to be correct. Accounts say he was in a closet.
He said himself he was out of school that day, which raises red flags to me.
This part appears to be a CBS article mangling a quote. The claim is that he was at school, went home, and then returned with a recorder. So yes, he was at home on that day, but not during the shootings.
Interesting. My friend's daughter took it not too long ago and got a 2150. Reading the documentation, there are two ways to define the total.
