The victims and witnesses were not small children who do not have a voice. These are intelligent, young adults who are woke.

You would think that the very people who helped weaponize social media would realize that the same platforms can be used against them. These kids are going viral and an entire generation is becoming politicized on this issue. The trolls have messed with the wrong people. I see this as a turning point in the battle for the heart and soul of our democracy. This is a fight the NRA mouth breathers cannot win and everyone supporting them is going to find out the hard way that they have gone too far and will be reigned back in.
