I have felt that there might be a change.

They are not going to stop, there will be more young people joining this along with their families and teachers and all of us who are sick and tired of the NRA and their putting all of our lives in danger more now than ever before.

I have been very lucky, I have never seen someone walking around with a weapon (not since the rube on the corner that was going to shoot terrorists after 9/11). I support these young people 100%, I simply cannot imagine what they have gone through. Their parents? The grief kills me sitting here yet they are brave enough to get out and do this.

It feels like the beginning of the Vietnam protests. This is just getting started and we must help them keep it going. Young people speaking their minds. YES!

"There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind" It took me a moment to figure out where the statement that I wrote came from, here it is.
