The latest school shooting where 17 students were murdered in Parkland, Fla., has spurned an outpouring of student activism. This has included a symbolic 17 minute walk out and peaceful demonstrations around the country, seeking to call attention to the issue of gun violence. I have been disappointed to see that this youth activism has been met by so many voices choosing to dismiss their concerns or even question their motivations, rather than simply listening to their message. |

| There are and always will be crazy people. So take the guns away form the crazy's and they'll make bombs. Now I don't know about you, but unless you're hit by the first couple rounds, duck and cover! But with a bomb, it's kiss your rear end good bye. Maybe an arm, leg, brain concussion... Sure, we can try to limit the access to weapons from the nut jobs, but you can't stop it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
