Students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School return to class Monday, their first day back since organizing one of the largest youth-led protests in US history.

But these teenagers won't be returning to a normal high school experience. Instead, they'll be met with strict security measures which are intended to protect them from another mass shooting but have some students feeling as if they'll be learning in a prison. "Going to school is really so hard, and now it's going to be so much worse," said Isabelle Robinson, a senior. "A lot of the people I've talked to are dreading going back."

Sort of sucks Parkland punks to lose your freedom "for the children." The irony it BURNS!!!

[proust]

Are they feeling a little infringed? 😏

The old choice of ‘safety versus freedom’

[Luircin]

HAW HAW.

The law of unintended consequences

These affluent children don’t know what prison looks like. They don’t even know what jail looks like

[dinodino]

Dumbass kids.

You want to imprison us, but we’re going to imprison you.

[jmacusa]

These little Brownshirts didn’t ‘’organize’’ anything. Adults did and they were used like so much propaganda.

[petitfour]

But it’s safe.

[ladyjane]

Big deal. You lost some freedom. Welcome to the real world.

Just imagine how much freedom your school mates lost.

Well they enjoyed a one month paid vacation, who would want to give that up?

Living in freedom has it’s risks but living in complete safety and security is unbearable.

I personally am willing to accept the risks associated with living in freedom

[robroys woman]

When I was in high school in 1970-72 it felt like a prison.

Duh.

[grania]

Gosh, maybe if they’d looked to things that weren’t done properly on the local level, it wouldn’t have happened this way. They’re useful idiots, a Child’s Crusade for the forces that want to destroy US sovereignty.

Go pull up the book ‘True Believer’ (Eric Hoffer, 1951). It details out completely how you run a mass movement and use naive people to convince individuals to jump into a movement. These brownshirts, and their organizers are going precisely by Hoffer’s definition of a mass movement.

The students should give a great deal of the credit for that sort of thing to this gentleman and his handiwork. https://www.browardbeat.com/investigation-special-treatment-given-teacher-with-unusual-access-to-superintendent-bob-runcie/ https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2018/03/16/broward_countys_jail-to-classroom_pipeline.html http://www.substancenews.net/articles.php?page=2607 https://www.browardbeat.com/anti-democratic-school-board-rule-protects-superintendent-robert-runcie-from-criticism

Be very careful what you ask for. You may have to live with it for a very long time.

"There's still that sense of melancholy, because what's going to happen from this?" Bishop said. "It's not like there was a magical bill that was passed that fixed all the things after the march. That didn't happen."

Typical liberal mindset to believe that a magical bill could solve this issue.
