Parkland school shooting survivor David Hogg ignored a simple question about gun control and background checks on CNNs New Day Tuesday and refused to answer directly.
Host Alisyn Camerota asked Hogg if universal background checks would have prevented the February 2018 tragedy at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. Hogg, however, failed to come up with a clear answer. (RELATED: David Hogg To Enroll At Harvard)
I think theres many instances, and instances of gun violence, that could have stopped further acts of gun violence. Theres 40,000 people that die of gun violence every year, and a very small minority of them end up being in school shootings, he replied. When were talking about hardening our schools and different things, what were not talking about is how were going to make our communities safer. When were talking about school safety, were neglecting the thousands of students that die either coming to school or coming back from school everyday, or simply just outside their house.

Him I can take because he is so ignorant he provides laughs. What's harder to endure are these idiot media libs pretending he makes sense.
They set him up a softball and he blew it.
I thought I read that he wasn’t there at school but showed up later; wrong??
This kid is a fine example of the failure of the public schools
Wonder why the fake msm keeps calling this jerk a survivor. He wasnt there that day. Morons.
David Hogg and Ocasio Whatever are two of the most annoying phonies to be listed in a free republic news headline.
Please do not be offended, but I decided to respond here just to voice my frustration with the popularity of these two mindless “celebrities.”
God bless.
At least we know they will survive a zombie apocaclypse. It’s obvious they are immune to having their brains eaten twice.
Has a future in politics, that one does.
Remember though, that facts can’t get in the way of morality. Or something . . .
His scripts are all jumbled together in his head.
40,000 deaths due to gun violence in the US is a bad number...guns are used in approx. 30,000 deaths each year and 2/3 of those deaths are due to suicide
CNN must rather desperate to still be giving air time to this creepy attention whore

Hogg or Camerata?
Gang bangers also kill other gang bangers....their deaths are included in that phony “40,000 deaths due to gun violence in the U.S.” meme.
I lived in Southern California for 17 years, back when California was still mostly normal.
In the 1990’s, when a gang banger killed another gang banger the police had a name for these type of killings.
The LAPD called them an NHI crime.
NHI = No Human Involved.
As if they care.
Is this just repeating a falsehood until believed to be true? What substantial,credible,verifiable evidence points to this statement being true? His statements certainly do not allude to him being there at the time in question. If I am wrong, so be it. I go by what information that is allowed to be given. The POS will always be a scumbag. It is sad who survives and who doesn't. The Hogg,coward cop and the f-ing Cruz still breath our air.
Piglet Hogwash can barely put together a sentence.
His grammar is atrocious, too.
Yet, the fascist little punk is going to Harvard.
I guess we should not be surprised; their recruiting criteria has been in the toilet for many years.
“Parkland school shooting survivor David Hogg.”
It was mu understand that he wasn’t even on campus when the shooting took place???
He admitted that “stopping school shootings” is a stupid thing to try, because they almost never happen, and almost nothing proposed would make a difference in these one-of-a-kind events.
He also admits that hardening schools is a valid solution, but dismisses it because it is solving a non-problem.
He also admits that the real problem with gun violence is society, but obviously doesn’t get into the reality of inner city minority and illegal immigrant violence.
