Student survivors of the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School who are taking the fight for gun control to the state and national level dont appreciate seeing their organizing efforts being labeled as a left-wing conspiracy.
Their sorrow can very easily be hijacked by left-wing groups who have an agenda, former Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.) told CNNs New Day on Tuesday, specifically naming billionaire and liberal activist George Soros.
Do we really think 17-year-olds on their own are going to plan a nationwide rally? the conservative activist continued.
Incensed students went on the air following Kingstons remarks to defend their activism.
I think its very despicable that he would even have the audacity to say that, said student survivor Brandon Abzug. Especially in the wake of a tragedy we really show who we truly are. Just because were young we cant make a difference is not right.
Abzug called on Kingston to apologize.
Delaney Tarr, another student survivor, added that that amount of support theyve been receiving is so overwhelming.
We are being given this platform and it felt wrong not to take advantage of it, she said.
A group of Douglas students became unlikely yet powerful spokespersons for gun reform after Nikolas Cruz, one of their former classmates, shot and killed 17 people.
Abzug came up with a three-point plan that he brought to his state representatives. It includes a ban on assault weapons, the creation of an agency that facilitates interaction between the FBI and local law enforcement, and the mandatory placement of psychologists in every school to boost the morale of students so that people who are young dont grow up to be so hateful of the world.

Meanwhile, CNN is labeling one of the JROTC students, who helped save students’ lives during the shooting, as a liar.
This is such BS. The kids want every liberal ideas but they do not want to be protected.
THE ELOI
Having solved all problems that required strength, intelligence, or virtue, humans have slowly evolved into the Eloi.
Over time the Eloi have become aimless, dissolute and naive. They are smaller than modern humans, with pointed chins,
large eyes, small ears, small mouths with bright red thin lips, shoulder-length curly hair and sub-human intelligence.They do not perform much work, except to gambol about, play, feed and mate.
The Eloi face no adversity in their lives except that they are being raised like sheep by the Morlocks, who come to the
surface of the earth at night and capture the vulnerable Eloi for food. Consequently the Eloi are afraid of the dark.
I am sure that after we peel back this smelly onion there will be evidence of the involvement of Clooney, Lil Debbie, Soros, and the Teachers’ Union....and others.
I was thinking the sheep from “Animal Farm” but Eloi is better.
Yep!Follow The Money - It never fails to reveal the truth.
Of course they are pushing back....the truth cannot be more obvious....
Kingston is right.
Replaying the 1960s, when cloaked communists fomented the student protests against the VN war (which we were originally winning) and the establishment then.
Pubic school teachers have been indoctrinating our children since the 1960s with social Marxist dogma (no God, feminism, homo is OK, patriotism is bad, white priveledge, etc.) assisted by our media and later www.
Other countriess schools indoctrinate children to become suicide bombers, for a great cause.
Someone needs to hand this little $hit a copy of “Rules for Radicals” and then explain to him what a “useful idiot” is.
If he still doesn’t get it, he should spend the rest of his life in Ithaca NY.”
James O’Keefe or Judicial Watch needs to conduct a full-on investigation. I am sure ties to Leftist agitators will be found.
We know who.......Kramer.
Kramer is a professional rabble rouser and it was easy to rouse the teen rabble to go together on an overnite to tallahassee
Why can’t the left just leave these kids alone?
You should make that into a seperate thread.
>”the mandatory placement of psychologists in every school to boost the morale of students so that people who are young dont grow up to be so hateful of the world.
The only way this will work is if the psychologist is armed otherwise he’s just another target.
Why cant the left just leave these kids alone?
Because kids are their primary target. For many decades. Were now seeing the bitter fruits. Some reading:
Critical Theory was essentially destructive criticism of the main elements of Western culture, including Christianity, capitalism, authority, the family, patriarchy, hierarchy, morality, tradition, sexual restraint, loyalty, patriotism, nationalism, heredity, ethnocentrism, convention and conservatism.

And, a new Dark Age is exactly what we are in. In such situations, the record of history is unequivocal: either we create a Renaissancea rebirth of the fundamental principles upon which civilization originatedor, our civilization dies.

...the mandatory placement of (leftist) psychologists in every school to... advocate for socialism, homosexuality, Godlessness and anti-parentism.
The problem with these protests is the kids are being manipulated during a time of grief. The gun-control grab mob is exploiting these raw emotions in essentially immature young adult/children.
I am not mad at these kids for jumping on the wagon, it happens a lot when there is a psychological trauma and one isn’t allowed to grieve through it. They have essentially now set up these kids to never be able to get out of the grief cycle.
Their demands cannot be met, it is an unrealistic expectation, and now their grief cycle is stunted. It will take years for them to overcome it, if they ever even recognize it. What is now being done to them through exploitation and manipulation is another type of horror.
This young woman's statement proves the assertion she is trying to counter, and she doesn't even recognize it.
