The latest school shooting where 17 students were murdered in Parkland, Fla., has spurned an outpouring of student activism. This has included a symbolic 17 minute walk out and peaceful demonstrations around the country, seeking to call attention to the issue of gun violence. I have been disappointed to see that this youth activism has been met by so many voices choosing to dismiss their concerns or even question their motivations, rather than simply listening to their message. |

| There are and always will be crazy people. So take the guns away form the crazy's and they'll make bombs. Now I don't know about you, but unless you're hit by the first couple rounds, duck and cover! But with a bomb, it's kiss your rear end good bye. Maybe an arm, leg, brain concussion... Sure, we can try to limit the access to weapons from the nut jobs, but you can't stop it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
