| beachbumbabs Member since: Sep 3, 2013 Threads: 6 Posts: 1600 | I listened to most of the rally. The kids were almost all worthy, and a couple truly amazing. The poet who threw up had a really great poem she read (that she wrote). I hate rap, and it was in that rhythm, but really well said. I hope they change the world, at least move it a little I find them very inspiring. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

Change it how. We live in a gun culture, we see guns on TV and in movies every day. All the cops carry guns. There are a few hundred million privately owned guns in this country. I have a lot of guns, and will get a few more. Rally's like this are feel-good highs, they change nothing. We love our guns, that will never change. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

| petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | Who organized this rally and paid for it? It sickens me to turn on the weather on tv and it is some reporter asking teens for advice. Sorry this is what our country has fallen to, asking kids for direction. Went to a gun show today, as I was walking in what appeared to be appalachian people were coming out. The mother was bitching at her kid because he just told her to go **** herself. The dad a big guy, didn't do anything. Apparently afraid to punish him. In my early reality, kids didn't say that to their mothers. I watched the second video and it seemed like the gal said it was a black and brown problem, and someone ought to provide them with opportunity. How many of these kids have jobs? The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

And how would you know this. You were in the room when they "wrote" their speech and noted that their parents, friends, teachers, other adult family and who ever paid for their plane ticket had no input. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |
