It’s lunchtime on a Tuesday, and the kids are piling into a pizzeria booth in Coral Springs, Fla., to plot a revolution. “The adults know that we’re cleaning up their mess,” says Cameron Kasky, an 11th-grader at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, who started the #NeverAgain movement to curb gun violence three weeks earlier in his living room. “It’s like they’re saying, ‘I’m sorry I made this mess,’” adds buzzcut senior Emma González, “while continuing to spill soda on the floor.” Kasky and González are sitting with two more of the movement’s leaders, Alex Wind and Jaclyn Corin. Except they’re not sitting, exactly. They’re crouching diagonally on the seat and leaning back on one another’s knees in order to devour their calzones while maintaining as much physical contact as possible. Corin throws a crouton into González’s mouth. Kasky uses Corin’s knees as a pillow. The conversation turns from their fellow organizer David Hogg (“So laser-focused,” González says, that “he could make his body get pregnant if he wanted to”) to the conspiracy theory that they’re actors being paid by shadowy donors (prompting Kasky to ask why his credit card was recently declined at McDonald’s) to their prolific trolling of the NRA. They agree that the gun lobby’s spokeswoman, Dana Loesch, is “very hot but kind of scary,” as González puts it.

From there, the Parkland kids plan to make gun reform the central issue for young voters in the midterms. “We’re going to show these politicians that we’re coming for them,” says Hogg. Kasky is more ambitious. “The world failed us,” he says, “and we’re here to make a new one that’s going to be easier on the next generation. If you’re against that, then get out.”
I guess they don't teach history at Stoneham HS. That quote immediately evoked sans coulettes, guillotines, jack boots, and goose stepping.
No one else remembers that apparently.
La rasoir Nationale!
“If you’re against that, then get out.”
...their way or the hi-way huh?
What do you expect from a generation taught for over a decade by die-hard liberal propagandists?
Given most of these idiot students could not write a proper academic paragraph, they can claim they cleaning up someone’s mess all they want when I know otherwise.......and this coming from a retired academic university professor who has taught a decade plus of idiot frakin’ Freshmen......K12 system in this country is utter garbage.
An FBI agent accompanied the draw Muhammad shooters to their destination. Did an FBI agent a company Nickolas Cruz to Parkland School also?

The Obama years taught these Post-Christian, Post-Modern, Humanist kids to be the ones who will gladly herd people into Death Camps.
They should just shut up and eat their Tide Pods
Resist the #ParklandPunks
Popping Tide pods one week, planning world domination the next. What DON’T our teenagers know?
If the school shooting generation has had enough, then why do they continue to shoot up their schools?

A huge part of the problem is all news media. Instead of the massive coverage currently employed they need very little coverage. And any mention of the murderer should be “deranged murderer,” “idiotic killer” or something like that. This policy would probably cut school shootings by two thirds.
It’s perfectly clear to me...
Cameron Kasky, Emma González, Alex Wind, and Jaclyn Corin are all conspiring with Corporate Media and government apparatchiks to deprive (at least) all 18-, 19-, and 20-year-old law abiding citizens of their civil rights.
In return for that, they expect to be richly rewarded, whether with money, fame, approval from their peers and their masters, or other perks attendant to the notoriety that they are so desperately seeking.
It’s what Democrats have always done...
They are mind-numbed robots with Progressive programming.
They can disarm themselves, and leave the grownups alone.
That quote sounds like the same sanctimonious pablum the hippies used to shovel out back in the 60’s.
Keep pushing, gun banners.
