Former President Barack Obama has again lauded the students of Parkland, Florida, writing that they "are shaking us out of our complacency."
"America's response to mass shootings has long followed a predictable pattern," the 44th president wrote in an entry published Thursday in Time Magazine's "100 Most Influential People" list. "This time, something different is happening. This time, our children are calling us to account."
"Seared by memories of seeing their friends murdered at a place they believed to be safe, these young leaders don't intimidate easily," Obama wrote of the students.
"The Parkland, Fla., students don't have the kind of lobbyists or big budgets for attack ads that their opponents do. Most of them can't even vote yet," Obama noted. "But they have the power so often inherent in youth: to see the world anew; to reject the old constraints, outdated conventions and cowardice too often dressed up as wisdom. The power to insist that America can be better."

So has the gun grabbers’.
You mean the kids being used/supported by the Dem party to push their agenda. When they are no longer useful, they will be tossed aside just like every other person/group the left has used.
Someone slap that stupid Obama. He needs to be shaken out of his complacency.
1. Lots of folks have influence, some obtain it by wisdom and others by fakery, deceit, and collusion. (Choose the one that best fits.)
2. The "children" actually appear to be a highly organized little obedient and unquestioning "community", that serves to repeat the anti 2A scare stories with, one suspects, much "assistance" from behind-the-scenes minders.
3. And, the real reason behind the Parkland tragedy? One suspects that it primarily points to Mister Obama's and Mister Holder's danger-laden PROMISE program, and how young criminals' crimes and sicknesses were being officially ignored; and, how the young creeps and criminals adapted by stepping up their game.
Sorry but MOST Parkland students have exceeded their 15 minutes and are now just becoming pain in the asses!
MOST Parkland students ........
other than a handful of “Usefull Idiots”......have gotten on with their lives and really don’t care about taking away others constitutional rights as they know their rights could be next if this crap is allowed to happen
The only “complacency I see is in Obama not be pursued for his many crimes. Greatest fraud EVER.
lol Trust me theyre not. These little glory seekers will be forgotten sooner than later with little to no significant change in any of the laws theyre trying so hard to change.
Ovomit and the wookie
I’d rather see him neck punched with his vocal chords ruined and his fingers smashed so he can never write or type again but I’d settle for seeing him rot in prison where he really belongs.
go to heck you big eared skinny legged little girly man - and that big stinking ugly wookie that is your husband can eat poop
While the democrats bashed away at guns and the NRA. Why hasn’t Florida Pols including Governor Scott bring up the Obama policy failures which include not only lax security but perverse disciplinary practices foisted on the Marjory S Douglas Parkland HS through DOJ grants ? When it is clear those policies flatly failed and allowed that tragedy to occur ?
Parkland students 5 minutes must be up so Obama is getting involved to get them another minute
FUBO
obama gave weapons to Mexican drug cartels and they murdered 16 school children with them along with more then 400 other people.
No, I’m ignoring the Tide Pod munchers.
