This is dangerous.   Children have a hard enough time with grief and trauma already.   Adding to the cocktail, euphoria from all the media attention. While people try and make an emotional argument for gun seizures.   Once these kids come off the media attention high they will crash and hit bottom hard, especially since they have not dealt with their grief yet.  

Playing this gun control garbage up is one thing after an incident.  But using children as props and standing on the graves of the deceased and the grief of the children who lived is disgusting.  

None of this furthers any discussion on this matter because no one ever puts any policy forth.   And just because they were in a school that had a shooting, that doesn’t make them experts on policy.  

Emotional nonsense.

The students who lived want to tell their stories.  And they want the adults to respond.

Words like "dangerous" "garbage" and the rest of you post is emotional nonsense, IMHO.

Edit: The students I have heard are better speakers and thinkers than our current POTUS. Maybe we should at least hear them out.
