Re: Another School Shooting
I caught a commercial during the NCAA tournament for 60 minutes. They are going to have (or maybe had already) a bunch of the Florida HS students who are part of the "enough is enough" movement. One of them said "We are the mass shooting generation".
I find it sad that this group of students, and probably many others across the country are labeling themselves this way. While every shooting is tragic, it is still directly affects a very small minority of students across the country. Why try and burden an entire generation on something that the vast majority will never encounter?
The internet and immediate worldwide attention has made a lot of people trying to make everything into the cause of the century. Occupy Wall Street, BLM, now this. It's like they are trying so hard to come up with some historic meaning for their lives.

Re: Another School Shooting
Teaching kids to see themselves as perpetual victims of an unfair government, bought by unfair businesses, in white man’s unfair society, should be a prosecutable form of child abuse.
Really, how bad do you want to fuck up a kid’s future to make some immaterial gains for your own political dogma?

It seems like a lot of middle class teens / younger males are going through a bit of an existential crisis. No real agency (in their minds) and no meaning.

Re: Another School Shooting
It was the northern states that forced the issue and discounted the representation of black slaves. But the narrative..
Consider also that the north had no trouble counting women and propertyless white men when counting how many congressman their states would receive.
