Students Of MSD High School Raise Hell
When you raise hell,
things happen!
things happen!
-----
Companies to end their ties with the NRA, Delta and United Airlines, Hertz and First National Bank of Omaha.
-----
The moves have come as petitions circulated online targeting companies offering discounts to NRA members on its website. #BoycottNRA was trending on Twitter.
-----
Even the State of Florida is facing a backlash. One of the survivors of the Florida school shooting suggested Saturday on Twitter that tourists stay away from the state.
-----
“Let’s make a deal,” tweeted David Hogg, a Stoneman Douglas student who has been a major player in the #neveragain movement. “DO NOT come to Florida for spring break unless gun legislation is passed.”
-----
The swiftness of the corporate reaction against the NRA has differed from that of past shootings, including the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre that claimed 26 lives, and the killing of 58 people in Las Vegas last fall.
-----
Why? Well according to Bob Spitzer, a political scientist at SUNY Cortland and a scholar on gun politics.
"The reaction was likely a reaction to the student mobilization that followed the
Florida shooting." here

Florida GOP Votes Down Motion To Take Up Weapons Ban
Even with Douglas students in the gallery these demons still voted down a motion to take up a ban on assault weapons such as the AR-15 used by Nikolas Cruz when he killed 17 people at the school on Valentine's Day. here

Still think there is no difference in parties?
This November you can change this.
But you got to vote! Remember the only way they get elected is via voter suppresion, gerrymandering and their small ignorant base.
You must turn out in huge numbers to overcome this.
There are plenty of days for early voting plus election day.
Don't want to get off your lazy ass to do it?
Then Vote by Mail

If you are thinking to yourself "Scott sounds like a bumper sticker. He is taking in NRA-ese," when he isn't mentioning jobs, he does a fine job of talking NRA-ese. The National Rifle Association absolutely loves the guy. A couple of years back, in fact, the NRA sent a message to members praising Scott for signing more pro-gun legislation in his first term than any other governor in recent Florida history. here
