Parkland, FL — After the tragic shooting in Parkland, Florida last month, a group of anti-gun high school children became the darlings of the anti-gun movement. They were given widespread coverage and platforms on all mainstream media networks to call for the disarming of Americans. They were sanctioned by the government to do so—and now they are getting what they asked for—less rights.
In the Land of the Free, marching for change used to mean that you were standing up to the government to demand more or equal rights. Fast forward to 2018, however, and it is the exact opposite.
The mainstream media and the government tells us that these students are brave for walking out of class and demanding change—but how is it brave to be used as a tool of the state?
Activism involves challenging the establishment and what these kids were tricked into doing is not activism.
Earlier this month, millions of students across the country were encouraged by the government, mainstream media, and even their own school systems to walk out of class and demand the government take away their rights. It was, by no means, a challenge of authority and, in fact, it was a celebration of it.
Schools across the country not only sanctioned it, but they supported it and actually punished those who chose to abstain. The walkout was little more than young people conforming to government authority by parroting the government-approved message in a government-approved venue—even at the government-approved time.
The message was simple: we want this government to take our rights away.
Young Americans across the country marched to demand less freedom from their rulers and the mainstream media, celebrities, and politicians alike shoved this down our throats as some grassroots heroic political activism. However, it was the opposite, and now even the cheerleaders of this movement, David Hogg, Emma González, et. al., are beginning to realize what happens when you beg the state to take away your rights. They take away your rights.
On Friday, the Broward County School system announced its plan to violate the students’ right to privacy be implementing a clear backpack policy.
“Clear backpacks are the only backpacks that will be permitted on campus,” said Broward County School Superintendent Robert Runcie said in a letter sent to parents.
Now, all students will have to allow anyone at anytime to view the contents of their backpacks as well as wear IDs so they can be properly identified by school authorities.

These new measures now have the darling activists on the defensive.
“I’m not happy with it. Why are you punishing me for one person’s actions?” Tyra Hemans, 19, a Stoneman senior, told CNN on Friday. But this is exactly what they wanted. These students wanted to punish the tens of millions of law-abiding gun owners by demanding the government take away their right to defend themselves—all for the actions of one person. Now, they are getting a taste of their own medicine, and it stinks.
“It’s unnecessary, it’s embarrassing for a lot of the students and it makes them feel isolated and separated from the rest of American school culture where they’re having essentially their First Amendment rights infringed upon because they can’t freely wear whatever backpack they want regardless of what it is,” Hogg said.
Trampling the 2nd Amendment is just fine to David Hogg, but touch the first, which is upheld by the second, and you are a tyrant.
“One of the other important things to realize is many students want their privacy. There are many, for example, females in our school that when they go through their menstrual cycle, they don’t want people to see their tampons and stuff,” he explained.
“What we should have is just more policies that make sure that these students are feeling safe and secure in their schools and not like they’re being fought against like it’s a prison,” he added.
The irony of the students’ ignorance is astonishing. Luckily, there are still many people out there that see this irony and are calling it out.

Be Careful what you wish for....

They are young and naïve and are teenagers - they know it all! Remember when you were that age? Couple that with a tragic event and the left swooping in to encourage them and feed their egos and bullshit, and they cant see they are being used.

The irony is delicious, so yummy. Its kind of like when you were 18 and your dad was an idiot and would look at you and smile and just say, go ahead and do it idiot... you'll learn.

You and I and all the others on this forum know that's why you don't let a bunch of teens lead a movement, but the left doesn't see it or care. They see a tool to be used, a tragedy to be exploited, and another chance to ratchet the chain of liberalism one more notch to the left. They used these ignorant kids, and all involved should be ashamed, but they have no shame, and they never will.

In the meantime, enjoy your clear backpack kiddos, and maybe, just maybe, a few lightbulbs will come on a few of these kids' heads.

Why isn't this here?

got to love it....

the first generation to sue their first amendment rights to lobby to have their second amendment rights removed

good for them and bless their hearts (and I mean that in the southern way)

Hmmm, consequences....who knew? So, what are these kid's feelings on higher taxes?

Only in a nation where its education system has been so thoroughly destroyed can such asinine shit happen.

How many generations have we, as a nation been controlled by teacher's unions and incredibly stupid politicraPs can this happen.

Where does the US place on the international list of schools? I seem to recall that we come in around THIRTY!!!

I laughed my butt off when I heard they thought it was intruding on their rights. It is amazing that they still don't get it.

Well I think they thought they were begging to have others' rights taken.

Well...it seemed like a good idea at the time (this is why the chirrins should not be in control)

Edit...that meme is great

This illustrates why the voting age should go back to 21. Of course the left would totally be against the idea since they are the ones shaping their minds through emotion instead of logic and facts.

Dumbasses. Wheres that jpeg of the red headed kid from Simpsons pointing his finger and saying "Ha Ha!"?

DTV, did you see the link posted by ffips above? I'll try and make a point any how. I wasn't impressed by their so called march. A young man in McDonalds here in N. Kentucky saw some of it on Fox and stated, They are fighting to have their rights taken away. Also, not one of these youngsters knows anything about a real march, like Batan, or American Soldiers marching across Europe, fighting a most evil enemy. Or, marching on shores of Japanese held islands, being shot to pieces and shelled, to protect their freedoms. I bet they know nothing of this.

Absolutely. I've been saying this for years now.

Yes, I do remember when I was that age. My parents did not allow me to even consider the idea that I knew it all, and there was never any question that they were in control of my life. Teachers, police, and other authority figures were just slightly beneath my parents in their control. Children were to be seen and not heard, and their daily activities were to play together and go to school (and learn!)--adult matters were strictly up to the adults to handle.

I fail to see how this would change anything. They've been taught nothing of value in school. They have no critical thinking skills. They have no marketable/workplace skills. As such, they're dumbasses now and being 21 isn't likely to change that reality.

What they really need to focus on learning is this.

Agreed, with an exception for Military. If you contract to serve the country, you should have a say in how it'a run.

While I want to take a moment and enjoy the delicious irony of this, I do want to be the bigger person and fight for these kids and show them the error of their ways.

This policy won’t help make our schools safer. It’s rediculous. A shooter can hide a gun in a variety of places. Where will the kids in band keep their instruments? See my point? What about the gunman who just walks in with a gun?

This is all so dumb. We need to help these kids get real school safety all while showing them that trampling on rights just to feel safe isn’t the answer. I doubt they’ll get it, but they are still children in need of help and real school safety.

Yeah, they need help all right. Good luck with that.
