(19,204 posts)some NRA nut threatens school kids with violence? You know at least one (they're all thinking it!) will be stupid enough to say something completely horrible, claiming "free speech". Their precious guns..........their precious, precious guns.

(51,611 posts)school district where I was a teacher and union rep. There is a Nationwide protest/Walkout on March 14th in hundreds of cities. Since it was announced on Fri the number of planned events has tripled. We are getting several city govt officials signed up as speakers to attend at my local district Ed Center site. It is from 10:00-10:15 AM. There is another one on March 24 for the state of FL. All parents, educators, students and communities are walking out of class that day across the country on March 14th. Here is a link... #ENOUGH

(6,189 posts)This next generation of kids KNOW who the enemy is. The NRA bought and paid for politicians.
These kids are going to do as the returning Vietnam vets did. They went to the streets and said this injustice has to stop.
Granddads will be proud. Politicians won't be able to find enough cover.
