Emma Gonzalez, a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, addressed a gun control rally on Saturday in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, days after a gunman entered her school in nearby Parkland and killed 17 people.
Below is a full transcript of her speech:
We haven't already had a moment of silence in the House of Representatives, so I would like to have another one. Thank you.
Every single person up here today, all these people should be home grieving. But instead we are up here standing together because if all our government and President can do is send thoughts and prayers, then it's time for victims to be the change that we need to see. Since the time of the Founding Fathers and since they added the Second Amendment to the Constitution, our guns have developed at a rate that leaves me dizzy. The guns have changed but our laws have not.

Seems like a Russian name to me.
Notice how studiously uninterested the fakestream enemedia is about Mr. Cruz’s origin story?
“...if all our government and President can do is send thoughts and prayers..”
Another commie atheist evolutionist dysphoria monkey tribe cult member, spitting on a nation’s prayers, proven miracles throughout the centuries, prophecies fulfilled, a Savior with witnesses, no, take your pagan heathen fascist agenda and take a hike Sally, the guns are here to stay.
Sorry princess. 9/11 and the Murrah building bombing “leave me dizzy”. Oh sorry again princess, you aren’t old enough to know about those things.
Looks like the liberals have found their next useful idiot. She will be on all the news shows over the next few weeks...the her 15 minutes will fade away and she join the likes of Kazir Kahn on the ash heap of liberal history.
I'm always amused by the attempt to paint the NRA as some kind of corporate Bond villain.
It never occurs to the sheep that the reason the NRA is so powerful and influential is because they represent A WHOLE LOT OF PEOPLE the left doesn't want to talk to unless can stage-manage the encounter.
That statement is a very popular Facebook meme at the moment. She's just parroting what social media has told her to say. Fake news.
Liberalism is a mental disorder. You cannot reason with deranged people.
The only way to get through to the afflicted, is through blunt force application of Reality.
Here, take the whole bottle.
Yep.
Yes! The 2nd Amendment and the Bill of Rights are non negotiable. Period!
Probably the Russians!..Haven't you been reading the news
Maybe they just need bigger gun free zone signs.
= = =
Technologically advanced gun free zone sighs.
Flashing Neon (too old school).
Blue tooth into your cell phone for a mandatory message on/near school grounds.
Augmented Reality to super impose ‘Gun Free Zone’ on all you see.
Etc.
“Who paid for it?”
Like you really need to ask that?
Who is it that pays for most if not all of the leftist agitprop these days?
There is a reason no one mentions “The wisdom of youth”
The Founding Fathers would NOT have included the 2nd Amendment if they had known a rifle like the AR15 would eventually been available.
I predict the above will be the democrat talking point.
Then I got called a conspiracy theorist for pointing out the link between school shootings and psychiatric medications. :)
Could Emma have made more sense if she’d expressed her sentiments in Spanish?
apparently emma thinks the police are all we need for protection- Well Emma, the police didn’t save 17 students did they? Where were they? Infact, had your school had MORe armed guards- this tragedy would have very likely been less severe- We need more guns, not less Emma-
Since the time of the Founding Fathers and since they added the Second Amendment to the Constitution, our guns have developed at a rate that leaves me dizzy.

She admits she’s dizzy.
