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.

Read it, and get back to me regarding your grandiose plan to neuter the Second Amendment.
A short synopsis: The heart of man is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it?
Knowing mans inherent wickedness, never cede all power to your government - no matter how well meaning they claim to be.
Hey Bich:
If you already know everything....how come you're still a student?
All feelings aside shes going to make a fine anti constitutional liberal someday !
FU, Emma. Being a victim doesn’t make you expert on anything. Pound sand, kid.
Is Emma a wetback?
Unfortunately, a lot of the children don’t get any wiser in the brain as they age. I have a feeling she will be one of many that doesn’t. Especially now that she has been validated by a cheering mob of her peers and the media.
Wait until she gets raped because she has no gun to fight back against her more powerful assailant.

Need more conservatives voices there.
I’m not going to criticize the young lady.
It is very normal to be flaming liberal when you are young. Like the saying goes...
“If you aren’t a young liberal, you haven’t got a heart. If you aren’t an old Conservative, you haven’t got a brain.”
She is an age where she is likely to be a liberal. I can excuse that. I can’t excuse Pelosi and Feinstein and Waters and all the OLD liberals who are brainless and destroying America.
This young liberal women, that is to be expected. Likely, as she goes through life she will become more conservative. Her views on guns may very well change dramatically if she is raped or robbed or one of her loved ones are killed because they were disarmed victims.
18 year olds are more or less at the dumbest points of their lives. They are new adults who think they know something, but really are at an all time low point of wisdom.
I give her a pass. She is expected to be liberal at her age.
Why did Emma Gonzalez, a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, have all of the hair on her head cut to about a quarter of an inch or less in length?
LOL - Now THAT’S impressive. A .45 that can fire 2,700 rounds per minute.
Hey Emma, make me a burrito.
Emma just needs a wig and a gentle spanking.
Snowflake without a clue try mental health, he could have used a home depot truck at recess and did the same thing a home made bomb made from supplies from your local hardware store on main street. Shows you how well the left has brainwashed the young yet we still allow it to happen
National Firearms Act of 1934. Gun Control Act of 1968. Firearm Owners Protection Act of 1986.
Because of these laws, you can't own a fully automatic machine gun, short barreled rifle or shotgun, or a silencer without first passing a very intensive background check. You cannot buy guns through the mail, but must buy them from a federally-licensed dealer. And there is a finite and ever-shrinking pool of fully automatic machine guns eligible for private ownership.
Nope, since the time of our Founding Fathers, gun laws haven't changed a bit.
>>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.
That’s been their talking point for decades. First, it was the AK-47, then the SKS, now the AR-15. It was the “plastic handgun that you can get past metal detectors”, then the high capacity magazine. Take away all those and it will be the lever-action because, even in the Civil War, some General remarked that you can “load it on Sunday and shoot it all week”.
Their talking points are like listening to some 13 year old girl explaining why she “absolutely HATES” some other girl in her class.
if all our government and President can do is send thoughts and prayers,”
Anybody shortsighted enough to scorn Prayer needs a slap upside their head. Go ahead, make an intractable enemy of the God feariong. Place yourselves above God by slapping Him aside during trial. Demand that the very tool that secured YOUR freedom, along with the effects of any prayer offered during the battle, be taken away from the free. This hubris of yours is getting tiring. So go ahead, make an intractable enemy of the Faithful, the God-fearing and the Patriotic. It’s getting about time...
Liberals spout that the lives of children are precious in a school, and we certainly can’t argue with that. But, the lives of children are also precious in the womb and Liberals are all for murdering those lives.
Nah, she just wants to turn us into her beloved cuba or other third world sh*thole she came from.
