Two weeks ago, Emma Gonzalez led the life of a typical high school senior. But after speaking out in an 11-minute speech at an anti-gun rally in Fort Lauderdale just two days after a former Marjory Stoneman Douglas student fatally shot 17 of her peers, she’s quickly become one of the country’s most visible gun violence prevention activists at just 18 years old.

They are dumb brainwashed kids. They have no idea what their rights are, where they come from or why and how they are protected from government by the Constitution.

“Figuratively” spit.

Her insult to Dana about her generation caring more for Dana’s kids that she did, was more than I would have taken

They left out the fact that she is the president of the LGBTQ club at the high school.

Every celebrity woman I ever saw who adopted the bald look soon abandoned it.

Gee, I wonder if People has given the time of day yet to the ROTC kid who says CNN cut him out because he did not want to read out the scripted question that they wanted him to? Or to the father who lost his daughter in the tragedy but got savaged by this paragons of tolerance on Twitter for having a Trump t shirt on in his profile picture?

“”””Did Emma get shot? This “survivor” term has got to stop - it’s part of the leftist agenda. Oh, if they’re a “survivor”, you have to give them air time for their gun-grabbing views.”””

I survived the shooting also. Can I share my opinion with these people?

We are being outplayed in the court of public opinion. America’s enemies planned for this and had a scripted sequence of stories and “spontaneous events” polished and ready even before the shooting, just waiting eagerly for enough children to die. While I hope we can out-wait them and not give in to further restrictions on our God-given right to self defense, we need to do more.

(1) We need to get the pro-gun “victims” out there talking about how much safer they would have been with trained and (voluntarily) armed teachers who cared about the students instead of depending on the indifferent deputies cowering outside.

(2) We need to articulate to the low-information voters why people are safer when more people are armed. We need to make sure all people know that guns make the weak, the old, the small, minorities, and in general those who are disadvantaged the equal of anyone who might mean them harm.

She’s 18, hardly knows her butt from a hole in the ground, hasn’t paid one dollar in taxes, or lived in the real world.

I don’t give a krap what she thinks about the Constitutional Ammendments she knows nothing about.....

I survived it by watching it on TV. Is that how you survived it?

She was just your happy, normal, well-adjusted, All-American high school girl with a Sinead O’Connor baldy haircut. No anger issues at all, before the atrocity.

One is too many, if it’s by choice. I have some sympathy for bald black girls, who possess hair that is miserable to deal with, but others? This haircut is horrendous.

I suspect that her Two Minutes of Hate will blossom into 60 YEARS of hate.
