What Is Stand With Parkland?...A Brand New Organization
Bustle ^ | 6/28/18 | Molly Longman

....Now the parents and partners of the victims are making that conversation their own, launching Stand With Parkland, the newest nonprofit group that's lobbying...

....this new endeavor is run by those who were most affected — the parents of 13 of the 14 student victims and family members of all three school staff members...

...Tony Montalto, father of 14-year-old Parkland victim Gina Montalto, told Rolling Stone that Stand With Parkland will be bipartisan. Although Democrats have traditionally been more supportive of gun control...

....the nonprofit’s launch garnered a response from the National Rifle Association. Chris W. Cox, director of the NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action, acknowledged in a statement to NBC News that many Parkland families were putting school safety ahead of politics, but argued to NBC that “making it more difficult for law-abiding adults to exercise their constitutional right to self-defense will not improve public safety."

Eh, isn’t this like two leftist ‘outrages’ ago? The Democrats moved on the border kids, and now on to the Supreme Court. The Parkland students are has-beens.

No doubt the administrators of this organization will be paid handsomely.

Not a bipartisan organization. This is gun grabbing. Miami media is running stories in their newscasts promoting the new lobbying arm of the gun control crowd.

Follow the money. Dollars to donuts sez that a certain Hungarian Palpatine impersonator is providing funding.

And is there a difference?

We need a “Stand for Parkland” 501(c)4 organization. Stand-for-Parkland should flood the far-left media with requests for donations and then use that money to defend our individual, God-given right to keep and bear arms, including in schools. If a few decent people had been armed at Parkland, that pathetic sissy would have gone down before he shot so many innocent kids.

If you go to the twitter account of these gun grabbers, you see a coordinated set of stories by liberal media promoting this new organization.

Disgusting.

It should be #StandOnParkland seeing how they were practically standing on top of dead bodies to get their interviews with CNN.

Conservatives should steal the initiative by loudly championing armed protection of our students.

Active shooter training for rapid response.

“Parkland Protection Initiative”!!!
