That's always been the most perplexing thing to me. The pro-rights side gets absolutely diddly-poop, and they call it a "compromise." The only explanation I can come up with is that our representatives on the right are teacher's pet-types who just want pats on the head and to be told they're good. They don't even stop and think that the people who give them (temporary) pats on the head want them to be completely marginalized. Yep, they bring Jack shit to the table to compromise with!!!

If you've watched these teenagers, they are so clearly under-developed mentally. While the shooting(s) in schools are horrific, these kids are extremely fragile and ruled by emotion. No logic. No critical thinking. Just calls for bans, which of course as we all know don't work.
It's scary that these kids are apparently not really taught anything useful in school - like world or US history - apparently. If they were, they'd quickly realize that prohibition didn't work, drug wars don't work, laws against texting while driving don't work, and so forth. Their classmate was willing to break dozens of serious laws, so why would any of them believe a law banning a gun would have made any difference? Even if he was magically prevented from a gun, he could have easily substituted a different weapon of choice...
Time to seriously consider a voting age increase to 21 in my opinion, when children are more mentally developed and have some world experience. X2

The Children of Peace tore up a Walmart in Chi-raq during one of these protests. Now THAT was a very mature act which leads me to believe they should be directing national affairs at their tender age.

I heard a blurb from the anti-Constitutionalists saying that we need to drop the voting age to 16 because of how well their gun violence protests have been going. I think it was an Oregonian who said it, but they were referencing both Oregon and nationwide youth protests (school walkouts) in the radio segment.
