You mean they're getting their security at the sake of their personal liberty just like they wanted. You know the old saying, be careful what you wish for.
Quote:As to the hypocrisy: They are speaking out against something they do not want....just like the gun owners are doing. (The students are at least talking about something that might actually happen vs the government taking away all guns.) But the students have no standing and will have to live with it unlike gun owners that have over 200 years of standing on their right to own a gun.
Except they asked for this. You are right though, the freedom to have an opaque backpack is not guaranteed by our Constitution, unlike the right to own firearms.
Quote:Again, just a damn shame that so many lawful gun owners are so intimidated by some students speaking out. Laughable too.
Sorry Charlie, it's not intimidation to point out the glaring logical inconsistencies in the arguments of teenagers. Maybe this problem should have been considered before making them the bearers of waving the bloody shirt? I feel bad for these kids, they've been used by people who don't care about them beyond the ability to use them to push an agenda.
