This picture, from the facebook page of MSG Firearms, shows a student with an anti-NRA sign while wearing a hoodie with the motto ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ and the date 480 B.C.
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ is what the Spartan king, Leonidas I is said to have told the Persian Emperor Xerxes I, when Xerxes demanded that they lay down their arms.
It means, Come and Take Them!
The same motto was used by Texicans in the battle of Gonzales in the first battle of the Texas war for independence. That war started with the Mexican tyrant Santa Anna attempted to disarm the Texas citizens of Mexico. In response to the Mexican Army's demand that the citizens of Gonzales return a cannon that had been lent to them for defense against Indian raids, the citizens defiantly said: Come and Take It!
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ has become a powerful symbol for activists fighting for the right to keep and bear arms. Many Second Amendment supporters, when faced with a new set of proposed infringements, simply say: No. Your Move. They say that if you attempt to disarm us, we will shoot you. Most supporters of disarming the population think it will be painless for them, and that only Second Amendment supporters risk anything in such a conflict.

It is because the dominant Media are as ignorant as these children. The children are just parroting what the Progressive left think. The dominant Media are just a facet of the Progressive left.
Any society that lets children set the standards for morality and law isn’t going to be around for very long.
The NRA did not shoot anybody or do anything wrong.
The front groups that are pushing this fraud agenda are targeting and manipulating minors. Many of those at these events are under the age of 18. Children do not have the life experience to know they are being manipulated by leftist anarchists. Targeting minors in this manor is child endangerment. The political front groups providing the funding and organizing these events need to be investigated.
Didn’t the assclown perp buy his AR at one of the numerous NRA AR-15 clearance shops? They’re like on every corner, man. Just ask Hogg.
They only want police (like the cowards of Browards had and stood down, letting the killer escape) and FBI agents (including former agents like Hogg’s daddy) to have them.
All animals are equal. Especially in a Police State.
The NRA are advocators of gun safety and awareness. They don’t buy or sell them, and they don’t inspire violence of any kind. The Left loves to lie and spread discord wherever they can.
Are the lobbyists behind this street theater registered as lobbyists?
Who is funding this campaign message?
Did you think these kids are educated or doing this on their own?
In this student’s case, the phrase is a request.
They are useful idiots. Unfortunately, there is no shortage of them.
I would liken it to sexual grooming and exploitation, it’s just as damaging to the child’s mind.
FULL RETARD!
Lacks all signs of a formal education
Leftist children with any awareness of the Spartans and Leonidas think of themselves as the heroic Spartans and don’t know what Molon Labe actually means. To them it is just defiance if they know it to be anything more than a neat shirt.
Oh my god ! I miss her so much !
best laugh today - thx Mr. Meyer
