You know what'd make a great experiment? All kids across the country get rid of their "social media" and cell phones for a month. That'd show far better results than a 17 minute walk out. These kids are so miss-guided it's sickening. Ignorance. Neal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering this crowd jumps to calling younger gernerations snowflakes etc at a moments notice. I doubt any attempt at calling out bullies would be meted with respect. On any other thread you would claim that a good old fist fight would solve everything. This walkout is effective, it’s had people on here talking about the issues. It’s had media coverage. A few percentage points wins elections. If 80-90% of kid rally behind one message and actually vote against Candidates that are owned by the NRA, you may see some changes.

How about arguing your position, instead of assigning me one to argue against. I have given several examples in which the students could have a bigger impact than walking out of class for 17 minutes. Don't tell me that kids don't know who is being bullied and picked on in their schools. A lot of times all it takes is one kid or teacher to make a difference in a kids life. I have personally seen it happen. Real Change comes at a small local level and spreads, not the other way around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hwytohell Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 17 minute walk out , more than enough time for me to flee that school and go have some fun for the rest of the day...............................

You didn’t come up with the idea of “hey kids why not talk to the kids being bullied instead of a nation wide walk out “. On your own. You read it on social media. It’s all part of the nra marketing plan to change the conversation from gun control. This is getting attention and it is exactly what the nra always want to avoid. Debate about gun control. Btw this is another case of the right complaining about free speech. A non violent protest is planned and you have issues with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incapable of interacting with people on a normal basis. His thought process is so out of whack, I don't even know how to respond. It is like two different conversations are going on.
