Conservative Parkland Student's Whirlwind Week in Washington Is Already Paying Off

If you are on Twitter, odds are you've seen at least one photo of Parkland shooting survivor Kyle Kashuv meeting all of our top officials in Washington. His busy week included sit downs with House Speaker Paul Ryan, Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Ted Cruz (R-TX), CNN reporter Jim Acosta, Townhall's own Katie Pavlich, and even President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

Guy introduced you to Kyle last week, when the two met to discuss how the young man's voice had been drowned out by his more liberal classmates. His peers like David Hogg and Cameron Kasky have been denouncing the NRA and calling for gun control. These students were invited to a CNN town hall, where they berated NRA spokeswoman Dana Loesch and the Republican Rubio for failing to endorse more gun control. One student even compared him to the AR-15.

Bullying is all the libtards have

I wonder what kids were bullying the shooter when he was a student there? Maybe some punk named Hogg?

the Parkland students that are promoting anti-gun legislation are receiving much support , such as a popular booking agent scheduling appearances pro-bono.
We need to organize and energize ourselves

http://video.foxnews.com/v/5748266721001/?playlist_id=1484128321001#sp=show-clips The beginning has him slapping down Camera Hogg and saying he was rude to hang up on the WH. He's a fan of FLOTUS. Still suspect he has handlers.

Kasky and Hogg are members of the DNC’s new NAZI (National Socialist) Squeaky Wheel Youth movement.

Yeah. I think so. Having a skinhead representing the Parkland “survivors” wasn’t a very bright idea.

Posting this without comment as we peons will certainly NEVER know EXACTLY what went down that day. 
But I will ask WHY the “authorities” there will NOT allow to be privately screened by INDEPENDENT, OUTSIDE forensic investigators THE RAW SCHOOL SURVEILLANCE VIDEOS?   Is this another in the cascade of government controlled events/positions that SHOULD cause the remaining handful of  Americans who still think critically to go “Hmmmmm?”
Am I the only one who thinks we’re being “PLAYED” to advance the leftist agenda!

I also would like to know how Hogg behaved during the shooting. Tried to save someone? Guess not. There were kids though who tried to save other kids. Real heroes. The MSM turn the wrong people into heroes.

"...Lawmakers are readying a bill mandating that local authorities are notified in cases where someone lies to try to buy a gun illegally..."

Oh Boy!

Another law that the "authorities" will ignore.

“I wonder what kids were bullying the shooter when he was a student there? Maybe some punk named Hogg?”

I’ve believed that since Feb. 14. They’re “the type”. I expect they might feel partially responsible for what happened, but would never say that out loud.

I hope the State group investigating the shooting is taking a hard look at the students’ behavior toward the kid.

After reading those messages I am reminded of the saying “Scratch a Leftist and you find a tyrant underneath” except it should say:

“Scratch a Leftist and you find a mentally ill, violent adolescent underneath.”

“I also would like to know how Hogg behaved during the shooting. Tried to save someone? Guess not.”

I’ve read that he was hiding in a closet with another student — a girl, I think — actually conducting an interview as it was happening! Not kidding.

I say that because older Leftists are just like this kid, they just try harder to hide it.

***David Hogg and Cameron Kasky***

Demanding the vote for 16 year old students yet believe you should be 21 to buy a gun.

Although I’m proud of him for his stance, passing legislation to feel good, is no good! Camel meet tent.....
