I'm all for free speech (Completely unrestricted BTW),<br> but this isn't free speech. Government authorities are supporting and encouraging this message in a venue that they have approved. \n\nLet's think for a moment about what is happening here. \n\nThese kids aren't actually walking out. They are participating in an activity that is sanctioned by government authority and supplying a message that is government approved. These kids are pawns and they don't even realize it. They think they are exercising their rights,<br> but they aren't. They think they are standing up for their own cause,<br> but they aren't. The message they are sharing is not their own. They are being duped. They are asking government to take away their rights. They are asking for more government. They are asking for less freedom. We all know this won't end well.",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"gun\",<br>\"violence\",<br>\"government\",<br>\"freedom\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmY8iRMF7qc1fjxGENyVQ3mKKuxLvBG6ENmY1QZmhKnnP2\/more-government-less-freedom.jpg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " |
