As School Starts, Locals Talk About the Real David Hogg and It’s Not Pretty

As summer comes to a close and kids start going back to school, there is one school getting more media attention than most others. Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, the site of the February 14 shooting, is in the spotlight as teens from the Parkland, Florida, community began a new school year this week. This past Tuesday — August 14 — also marked six months since the shooting, putting that subject at the forefront of everyone’s minds. Several teens from the school spent their summer as teen activists, both locally and nationally. Some students even took their “March For Our Lives” platform on the road in a 20-state bus tour. David Hogg, one of the leading advocates for gun control among his classmates, has been busy organizing protests (complete with armed guards for himself), signing a book deal, and endorsing national political candidates all summer — but he has given locals in the Parkland community the short end of the stick. Recently, Hogg called on parents around the country to get out and be proactive in their communities. “To any parent reading this: save us, vote, work on political campaigns, knock on doors, run for office and be the change because our politicians won’t be.” Hogg hasn’t taken any of his own advice, however. Our parents have not failed us, our politicians have. To any parent reading this: save us, vote, work on political campaigns, knock on doors, run for office and be the change because our politicians won't be. Nov 6 is the day we can save our future but only if you choose to. — David Hogg (@davidhogg111) August 12, 2018 According to Parkland locals, the teen hasn’t knocked on a single door in his own community as the Broward County school district prepares to have elections for new school board members. Ryan Petty and Lori Alhadeff are both Parkland parents who lost children in the shooting and their campaigns for the school board are centered around ensuring that no other parent has to go through what they have. As Petty told the Sun Sentinel, “Every parent in Broward County deserves to have their child come home to them safely. I’m running to ensure what happened to my family and Lori’s family doesn’t happen to anyone else.” Alhadeff called for stronger safety measures and more transparency between the board and the parents of schoolchildren: “I want to ensure schools provide safety and a quality education, and there is transparency and accountability.” Despite their efforts to genuinely create a safer community in Parkland, Petty and Alhadeff have received no support from Hogg — and the community has noticed. I call BS! If they truly wanted to fix it he’d be fighting beside us with this school board race. Broken promises. Can’t even endorse Loria or Ryan who are making the true sacrifice and are Parkland Heroes! — Hunter Pollack (@PollackHunter) August 14, 2018 So you can endorse Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as future president, but not Lori Alhadeff and Ryan Petty- both parents whose kids were killed in Parkland as candidates for Broward School Board? https://t.co/2uIYvpcuK5 — Hunter Pollack (@PollackHunter) August 15, 2018 It appears that Hogg has chosen the fame of the national spotlight over actually lending a hand to create change in his own district. According to the Examiner, 19-year-old student Kenneth Preston said that “some who gained a ‘massive platform’ from the Parkland shooting have ‘forgotten what happened here at home and have neglected the local election.’” Preston added, “They haven’t dedicated any of their time to the school board races.” Hogg has tweeted multiple times in recent weeks about the need for young people to get out and vote, and yet he refuses to practice what he preaches. The #RoadtoChange has made it clear to me that the young people will win if they -work on political campaigns -knock on doors -make sure everyone they know is voting -run for office -register themselves and others to vote and most importantly vote on NOVEMBER 6th!!!! — David Hogg (@davidhogg111) August 13, 2018 As summer comes to a close and kids start going back to school, there is one school getting more media attention than most others.

In sharp contrast, conservative activist Kyle Kashuv has been actively supporting local candidates like Ryan Petty, even going so far as to make his own political ads for Petty’s campaign. Kashuv also isn’t afraid to call out those he believes are falling down on their jobs, like incumbent school board member Donna Korn and Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel, both of whom he believes share some responsibility for the Parkland shooting. Looks like David Hogg could learn a lesson or two from Kyle Kashuv. Read the full article

Who is Scot Peterson ( Former school resource officer accused of hid during Parkland shooting ) Wiki, Bio, Age, Crime, Incident details, Investigations and More Facts

Scot Peterson Biography                                                        Scot Peterson Wiki

The former school resources official, accused of hiding in a South Florida school shooting that killed 17 people, must convince a jury that he was not a negligent criminal, a judge said Thursday.

Broward District Judge Martin Fein declined to dismiss the negligence charges against former Broward County Congressman Scot Peterson, according to the Sun Sentinel. Scot Peterson, 58, had worked as a school resources officer at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland. Nikolas Cruz, who was 19 at the time of the February 2018 shooting, was charged with 17 counts of first degree murder. Judge Allows Charges Against Scot Peterson For Not Engaging Parkland School Shooter https://t.co/j5aCtU9QXU — USFRA.org (@usfraorg) August 20, 2021 Prosecutors said Peterson did not come to the rescue when Cruz walked through the corridors of the school. The law that Peterson allegedly broke applies specifically to caregivers, but defense attorneys argued in a hearing Wednesday that a law enforcement officer does not meet the legal definition of a caregiver. Prosecutors argue that school resource officials are inherently different from other law enforcement officers and should be viewed as caregivers. Fein ruled that a jury can decide whether a school resource manager should be considered a supervisor and noted that a jury instruction will be included. Cruz faces the death penalty if he is found guilty of the 2018 Valentine's Day massacre, which left 17 dead and 17 injured. Cruz's lawyers have said he will plead guilty in exchange for a life sentence, but prosecutors insist his fate be decided in a jury trial. Read the full article

How do we interpret the Second Amendment in a way that makes any sense?

This is the controversy that is ripping through America today.

Earlier this week, a maniac Trump supporter murdered seventeen of his fellow Americans in Parkland, Florida. This person was a scumbag, who doesn’t deserve to get his name in print. He was photographed proudly on Instagram wearing his stupid red Make America Great…

Support the March for Our Lives gun plan

For too long, our nation has been waiting for Washington politicians cowering in fear of the NRA to act on gun violence. Now it's time to let the survivors of gun violence take the lead. The students who survived the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida inspired millions by refusing to be quiet in the wake of tragedy. Instead, they launched the March for Our Lives and spoke out, even if it meant facing right-wing slurs and media criticism. March for Our Lives just released perhaps the boldest gun control plan yet.1 In the wake of even more mass shootings, it's long past time to start changing the conversation from half-measures to real change. Tell Congress: Support the March for Our Lives gun plan. The March for Our Lives organizers are trying to change the terms of the debate. Congress is currently stuck in the mud arguing over small – though important – proposals like red flag laws. We have reached the point where any action at all would seem like a big victory, even though what we truly need is ambitious change to end the gun violence epidemic in America. Big "C.H.A.N.G.E." is exactly what March for Our Lives is proposing:2 Change gun ownership standards, including a national licensing system, a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and a mandatory national gun buy-back program. Halve the rate of gun deaths within a decade by declaring a national emergency and setting a goal of saving 200,000 lives by cutting gun injuries and deaths by 50%. Accountability for the gun lobby by repealing laws designed to protect the gun industry, launching FEC and IRS investigations into the NRA, and challenging past legal decisions that shield the gun lobby. Name a director of gun violence prevention who reports directly to the president to coordinate the efforts of agencies too long sabotaged by the gun lobby, such as the Department of Health and Human Services, the Centers for Disease Control, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Generate intersectional, community-based solutions that tackle the many dimensions of gun violence – urban violence reduction programs, mental health and suicide prevention, domestic violence prevention – and address police violence in our communities. Empower the next generation by automatically registering all eligible voters on their 18th birthday and creating a peace corps equivalent for gun violence prevention. The young March for Our Lives organizers want to set a new gold standard for 2020 and every year beyond. Every signature in support of their plan puts pressure on elected officials and candidates to boldly confront gun violence. Tell Congress: Support the March for Our Lives gun plan. Thank you for speaking out. References: The Washington Post Editorial Board, "A plan to end gun violence from students who survived it," Aug. 22, 2019.
