When a group of youngsters start a crusade that makes their parents, their school, city, state and country vaingloriously proud of them, do you think any cranky ammosexual complaint about parental control -- as if those kids were running amock during Spring Break at Fort Lauderdale -- will have any effect?

Only within the Republican echo chamber, of course, as it desperately tries to crank up some kind of defence, or misdirection to cover the seriously exposed nether cheeks of the NRA, its supporters and enablers.
