Many of the same liberals claiming that Republicans and the NRA are “killing kids” for supporting our constitutional right to bear arms were the same ones taunting Andrew Pollack, the father of a girl who was killed in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Why? Because of a photo that was taken of him when he was still searching desperately for his daughter:

While CNN and other mainstream media outlets have been parading around a select group of survivors who happened to already be far-left activists calling for gun control, Pollack and the other parents of the actual victims haven’t received nearly as much media attention. And why? Because while they’re calling for change, they’re not being explicitly partisan.
It’s gotten to the point where this group of young gun-control activists are calling for companies to be boycotted simply because they have executives who donate to Republicans. They initially just called for boycotting companies that provide discounts to NRA members.
FedEx chairman is Fred Smith. Apparently he's a huge republican donor. #BoycottFedEx

Fox News is the only network that bothered to have Pollack on – and when he voiced his views, it’s clear that his lack of desire to politicize his own child’s deaths is why it wasn’t CNN interviewing him.
According to The Blaze,
Pollack tore into the media on Sunday for pushing a gun control narrative in the days following the tragic shooting.
He made his comments on “Fox News Sunday,” and even criticized host Chris Wallace for focusing on gun control during a preceding interview with Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R).
“You’re talking about gun control. I just had to listen to you and Gov. Scott talk about gun control. Gun control is a big issue, no one in America is going to come together on gun control,” Pollack said.
“You didn’t say one thing about fixing it. The American people, we could get together on school safety,” he added. “But when you polarize it and every other media…we don’t care about gun control right now…you’re not gonna get everyone together on it. But, we are gonna get everyone together on fixing our schools.”
“Today, it’s not about guns. It’s about the safety in our schools, and that’s what you ask Gov. Scott about. My kid’s not here, because the schools weren’t safe. That’s the main thing,” Pollack explained.
Pollack suggested that security at schools should be similar to security at airports and courthouses, two places that almost never see any type of violence.

So simple. So true. Outlaw guns and the law abiding will turn in their guns, then only outlaws will still have guns. As is said of lies repeated often enough – they gain credibility, in a similar vain, with the truth – Simple truth that is repeated to often becomes dull and boring and is pushed out by complex narratives that were created in the imagination.
Europe needed 6 million Jews with guns as Hitler gained power. For every empty Jewish hand soon there were only ashes in the wind.
The 2nd amendment was brought in to give former slaves the chance to defend themselves from the Democrat supported KKK and the lynching soon ended.
Gun control and crime control are only weakly correlated. Gun control and insurrection control are one and the same. Where you have a standing army and a armed police force you are much safer with your neighbors armed as well.
Guns in the hands of the people say clearly “The people own the government and the government with never own us”
That said, repeating rifles or semi-aromatics at are enough. There is no need for any rifle that is fully automatic or that can be converted to automatic. There is no need for a magazines with greater then 6-round capacity. The NRA must bend or it will break in less then a decade.
We can’t fight the tear-jerking propaganda forever. The lies and convolutions will hold sway and more freedom will be lost. We must get in ahead of this while we can still manage the outcome.
I would, and I bet most NRA members if they could, would give their life in a heartbeat to save this child from being shot, or any other tragedy. Most of us have had the opportunity to live some and to experience much of the joys of life. For a teen it is too terrible, too tragic, unthinkable, to have missed out on so much. For one to lose their innocent life because of the sorriness, savageness, radicalized brainwashed religion, meanness, revenge, of another is unforgivable.
i want someone, anyone to verify this hogg kid, goes to that school or if he graduated in Cali a few years ago.
I just joined the NRA also and am boycotting the companies that are dropping discounts for NRA members or attacking them also. The Sheeple need to investigate the truth before jumping on the band wagon of the lying mainstream media! And a note to John, you are so right…We need Idiot Control!! And as for school control, if doors are locked and controlled for access plus cameras, how can “they” stage planned events like the previous ones? Hmmmmmmmmmmm!
We just became lifetime members of NRA & plan to join GOA (Gun Owners of America). We are boycotting all companies that are coming out to attack the NRA & withdrew support from them. This is total BS! The NRA doesn’t sell weapons or advocate killing of innocent people. They support the gun rights of law abiding gun owners. This last shooting as well as the previous ones (Sandy Hook, Orlando, San Bernardino, etc.) are staged events by those seeking to disarm Americans & implement their NWO agenda. Stop watching the lying mainstream media!
That didn’t stop anyone.
We have gun control, We need idiot control, And we need school safety, Retrofit all entrance ways with automatic locks, Add an extra door to the main entrance anyone wanting to come into the building will need to come thru two doorways, No person will be able to access the building unnoticed, Security could have a clear vision of the area between the two doorways.
