      There's an increasing tendency on the American right to argue Nikolas Cruz was the true victim of the Parkland massacre.https://twitter.com/papaguyo3/status/979502590466633728 …

      Replying to @IngrahamAngle @davidhogg111
      Don’t buckle to arrogant kid who’s exploiting tragedy. Ask #Hogg if he reached out to Cruz or ostracized him as did others. Cruz didn’t harm anyone in his home, nearby businesses or theaters, in his current school. He attacked Douglas because they hurt him.

      Can we not give oxygen to an anonymous profile with 2 followers?

      I'd recommend doing a twitter search for "Nikolas Cruz bullied" -- you'll see that this is an emerging meme & this tweet not non-representative.

          So @emma4change saying we knew him and have been afraid of him since middle school = bullying? And now being afraid of someone and avoiding them justifies that person murdering 17 innocent people with a military grade assault rifle?

          Read the NYT piece "I was kind to Nikolas Cruz; he killed my friends anyway" before giving fuel to right wing propaganda

          Replying to @HeerJeet @cmmoertel @joshtpm

          Guess there's a reason a Parkland survivor had to write an OpEd in the @nytimes about the fact that she had attempted to befriend Cruz. (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/27/opinion/nikolas-cruz-shooting-florida.html … …) I was wondering why this was something that needed to be said. Now I know.
