Can't help but wonder how many of the lefties bemoaning her for "attacking a child" here are the same ones who were shit posting about Barron Trump a year or so ago.

This is a pretty dumb post considering the righties in this topic that cried about that unwarranted personal attack are not only not defending Hogg but they're saying she shouldn't apologize and he should disappear. I also remember the majority of people on both sides saying that wasn't cool so yeah you're completely wrong on that front

I don't agree with either per say but don't be dense and act like both of these situations are the same. David Hogg is an outspoken teenager who is demanding attention. Barron Trump was literally an innocent little kid minding his own business who was essentially being cyber bullied by people who are supposed to be adults. Not the same thing.

Also, you're full of shit. Plenty of people on this very board were defending the Barron Trump thing.

When you purposely put yourself out to the public, you get everything that comes with it.

which is fine. and if those criticisms (or in this case, pointless attacks) aren't relevant or are stupid then the person making the remarks will be called out and may have to face consequences. It goes both ways man. "she shouldn't have to apologize because he made himself public!"...sorry it doesn't work that way.


Im saying hes fair game for criticism. If she wants to apologize, whatever, but I feel as though she should have stuck to her guns.

I 100% agree an apology in an effort just to save your advertisers is not enough. I will only accept your apology only if you denounce the way your network has treated my friends and I in this fight. Its time to love thy neighbor, not mudsling at children. https://twitter.com/fred_guttenberg/status/979423447859318786


What a joke. When he goes on profanity laced tirades against adults all the time, he's suddenly a child now? Come on. He's a fucking 17 year old teenager. He's less than a year away from being a legal adult he's not a child.

She's an idiot for what she said, but what him appealing to his childhood is a joke.

If attackers want to dismiss him and his ilk as "children", they should be prepared for it to cut both ways.

He's speaking as though his ideas are intelligent enough to be taken seriously by adults. If he wants to be taken seriously as an adult he shouldn't hide behind an invisible cloak that labels himself as just a child.

I think he's an arrogant teenager being manipulated and nothing more. But that is just my opinion of him. If he wants to be more than that then he should face the consequences of public adult life like everyone else instead of being a coward and dismissing the hate he gets as unfair because it's directed at a child.

Shut up with the "he should face the consequences of adult life if he wants to act like an adult!" stuff...Criticizing his politics and beliefs is fine. Offering an intelligent rebuttal to what he is saying is fine. Ingraham didn't do ANY of that here or ever. Cut the bull shit.

He is facing the consequences; hes just not staying quiet about them.


Dismissing what she said as being low because he's a child is not facing the consequences. It's a cop out and nothing more. What she said was dumb enough as it was and it spoke for itself. He could have just said "I had a fucking 4.1 GPA and didn't get accepted, that sucks but it's not like I won't get into a good school anyway. Meanwhile you're still gonna be a 3rd rate journalist on a shitty "news" network that spreads lies everyday." That would have been a much more respectable and intelligent response that doesnt look as cowardly.

he seems to mostly be taking offense to the "at Children" part at the end of his response. Just take those two words out and his response is still a great one. She only apologized to save her shows checkbook and she refuses to seriously look at the way her show treats people they don't agree with. By attacking them (via mudslinging) in ways unrelated to the entire reason she's so mad at them to begin with.

I agree with this. What she said was incredibly stupid. I can't even see how anyone could possibly believe stating "hahaha you didn't get into an incredibly difficult to get into college despite having a 4.1 GPA" would be a good idea or even make any sense. If anything she just brought attention to the fact that he has a 4.1 GPA which is a great accomplishment.

Slightly off topic but it's so fucking annoying how most high schools in the US use a weighted GPA, but mine did not. So it was impossible to get above a 4.0 and a freshman PE class was worth the same as like IB HL math since I went to an IB high school.

He's not a kid. He's a 17 year old teenager, and by all accounts a very intelligent one. There's a very clear separation between him and like a 6 year old or something. He's less than a year from being an adult. The line between 17 and 18 isn't like a person magically becomes instantly more mature over night, so for the purposes of this argument the distinction is essentially meaningless.

He has chosen willingly to be a part of public adult life and with that comes the responsibility of getting criticized by people, even for incredibly stupid reasons like this. Part of being an adult is learning how to effectively deal with that criticism, which I don't believe he did by saying "I'm just a kid though!!!!1!1!1!!1!"

All that being said both sides here said stupid things imo with Laura Ingraham being obviously more wrong.
