Whose attention are they even trying to get anyway??

State, federal, local?

Also all these students are doing they're protesting in ignorance and all these walk out students are bullies and the hotshots

They are dumb.

If these genius teens spent as much energy standing up for their peers being bullied maybe we aren't in this mess.

if bullying was really the root cause of this problem, wouldn't the other countries that have bullying (aka all of them) also have this problem?

Chicago has the strictest gun laws in the country, and we see how that's turning out.

But you don't honestly think you are putting forth a good point though, do you? You know it's not that simple. But it does serve as a good gotchya question, putting the brunt of the work on the other poster.

I think we're almost at the point where school could be an internet only thing at this stage anyway.

With exception to the sciences (labs and chemistry and stuff)...and possibly math to keep cheating out.

i think it's a very valid point.

every country in the world faces problems of mental illness and bullying but only one of them (us) has rampant mass shootings, particularly in schools. what are we doing differently than the rest of the world that could possibly explain us being the outlier?

i agree the answer is complicated but that doesn't invalidate the question.

Some of them get national attention when they do stupid shit like tear down the flag and jump on cop cars like in TN.

Kind of makes you realize the true motivations of these kids (word choice deliberate).

A million things, including type and amount of bullying.

If social science were so easy, we'd have definitive answer to all policy.

that's a fair response.

all freedoms have a price.

the freedom to have free speech means people might offend you.

the freedom to own firearms means people might use them on you.

They need to go back to school and learn to be nice to each other

Is it a flawed idea/system? Absolutely. I came to grips a few years ago that we are never going to have the concept of Heaven on earth. IMO: We have to make sacrifices for these freedoms.

Humans are flawed. It's admirable that people don't want others to die for no reason. Nobody wants children to die. There is literally nothing that can be done to stop this problem completely. Whatever we push through will impact an innocent person's life. If we take away the right for 18-22 year old to carry, I feel like we are opening up another bag of worms.

To legally drive a car, you need a driver's license. Why not have a similar system with mandatory education and training as a prerequisite for legally owning guns?

They are absolutley dumb because these kids are ignorant of the subject they're protesting. If it was solely to take a minute for the victims of the shooting then thats cool and I'm all for it, but this "protest" is nothing but feel-good politics and a way to get out of class

It was plastered all over the news last night and these kids couldn't specify anything they wanted. The theme everyone of them spouted was "We need to ban guns to stop this violence"

What the hell are you even saying at that point?

All guns? certain guns? All guns going forward? Can you keep what you have? Implementations for this?

Just saying "ban this thing" is idiotic and makes no sense
