I've never witnessed so many young people who appear to have been groomed for their moment in the spotlight...but in fact, are just kids that believe in what they speak. Delaney Tarr is a star. Go get them kids!! We have tried for decades now's your turn!
-
Hey Chris, I’m greatly relieved that this group of students will succeed in fixing what my generation broke. Agreed, Ms. Tarr is a star!
-
I am thankful they are strong smart and hopefully resilient people. They will have everything thrown at them by the
@NRA and those that believe in the extreme positions of Wayne "excuse me I have a cock in my mouth" LaPierre. Oops did I say that? He's taken NRA to hate org.

Very strong. Inspiring. Lawmakers you have brought Amrca to this, where the young no longer have faith in you. Shame. There asking to be safe. God damn it what are you worth, if you will not move to give them that.

These kids are not only morally superior to their Republican elders, they're measurably smarter and way more articulate.
-
I think the
@gop has so many people owning them that it’s tough to speak authentically. These students are authentic to the core. -
It's not tough for them to speak authentically, since they have no desire or impulse to do so. That's why they're in the Republican Party. It's become a party of opportunists, religious nuts, and venal bigots. "Authenticity" is the least of their concerns.

I am continually amazed at the calm, articulate and substantive public statements by these HIGH SCHOOLERS! I don't recall anyone from my HS days who could speak this well, not to mention on national tv. Wow.
-
Someone made a good observation I hadn't thought about before, namely that these kids, specifically, have grown up with always on social media and video chat. They're used to cameras and saying what they think. Now they're using that and imbuing it with real passion.
-
You sir are probably correct. Kids now a days are always in front of the camera with Snapchat, instagram, facebook, etc. when they need to do any public speaking, they have no fear because of that. That’s why they look like they have been groomed. They do it all day and night

A lot of trolls on this thread trying to spread conspiracy theories about these kids. Also, it looks like almost all of them now have ~50 followers following

The administration did make a “change.” They loosened Obama era gun laws so mentally ill that are clearly children can buy things like say an AR.......
go get em kids! All “thoughts and prayers” and no action.. -
Everything you wrote is wrong.

Crazy in this case how the 17 year old shooter broke no laws in acquiring such an Arsenal. A little odd with his disposition and age that no laws we’re broken leading up to “the day.”https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/trump-signs-bill-revoking-obama-era-gun-checks-people-mental-n727221 …

He only assaulted and threatened people. He should have been arrested, not expelled. Then he wouldn't have passed a background check.

These kids are pure and innocent at heart. They are not tarnished by greed and/or power. Republicans could certainly learn a lot from them. They are our future and give so many of us hope during these dark times.
