Imagine if these teenagers were up in arms about abortions?

Post by 133743Hokie »

"So, for example, instead of seeing a sixteen-year-old on a podium in front of an enthusiastic throng thundering that "any politician who receives a dollar from the NRA has blood on his hands," it would be "any politician who receives a dollar from Planned Parenthood has blood on his hands."

Or, during the CNN "town hall" ambush of Marco Rubio and NRA spokesperson Dana Loesch, suppose it were, instead, Chuck Schumer (100% rating from Planned Parenthood) and Cecile Richards, who, during her tenure as President of Planned Parenthood, presided over millions of abortions. Suppose teenager Cameron Kasky, instead of walking up to Senator Marco Rubio; getting in his face; and saying, as he did, "Senator Rubio, it's hard to look at you and not look down the barrel on an AR-15 and not look at Nikolas Cruz," said to Senator Chuck Schumer, "Senator Schumer, it's hard to look at you and not see an aborted fetus and body parts being sold on the open market"? Suppose it were Richards who was the target of shouts of "murderer," "burn her" and "c---" instead of Loesch?

Watch the tapes of the speeches and the on-camera interviews of these impassioned kids, and make a good-faith effort to imagine if that self-same passion were directed in favor of something you find reprehensible, even morally repellant, instead of something your own view of the world allows you to cheerlead.

How would they appear to you then?"

Cmon now..Planned Parenthood is NOT about abortions, nope. They are about giving "access" to women's health to poor people that republicans deny care to. THAT is all planned parenthood is about- they are vital to the welfare of the country because millions of women would be denied "access" to pills, etc. if planned parenthood (the only place where you can get STD testing, a pap smear, and pills in America) went away. Abortion? that's really not what they are about. LOL

What nauseates me about Hogg is his exploitation of the tragedy to advance his YouTube ambitions. And he's a pussy. He gets up on stage and demands to subvert rights and then hides behind his age when counter punched. He's a big talker with a glass jaw. Wants the advantage of his platform without the accountability that goes along with it. Not to mention he's being exploited by the left to advance their gun ban agenda. He's another prop in their play against Trump and America.

He's even leveraging his 15 minutes of fame to try to get universities to admit him, and a friend after they have already denied him.

He's repulsive, I can't stand him. "we are changing the world" "you all are on the wrong side of history"- total BS. Once he graduates high school and enters politics, the gloves will come off and he will be exposed and go cry in a corner. Kids today equate youtube hits and twitter follows to intelligence and power. they will soon learn the harsh real world. And he and his "followers" are toos stupid to realize that the further they push hard corps unreasonable gun laws, the less gun laws will be passed. They are so arrogant they think "everyone" agrees with them. LOL

He's out of control. He's attacking Laura Ingraham and trying to get her show cancelled. I have a feeling Obama era education created many more communist agitators like Hogg. He's the first wave I'm afraid. The more he and his peers talk, the more I understand why their classmate wanted to shoot them. The killer is certainly at wrong and bears responsibility for his act, I'm just saying I understand how being around insufferable douchebags all day will grate on him.
