Gun Political Issues Megathread. (Control for or Against?)

Given his son turned into an anti-human activist, high enough to matter.

Eh, maybe? People can just he stupid in life

Nah. The FBI is typical, but the equation is simple. Initial anti gun attitude + gun trauma (even though he wasn't there, he knew people that died) + national spotlight = David Hogg. The people to blame here are the media and the shooter.

He seems a bit too artificially inflated in importance, like Greta. Maybe he doesn't realize he's a puppet, that's possible.

As Abhorsen put it. He was always anti gun, just happend to know someone at the shooting, and now he has a platform due to the national attention

Australia just recently had a mass stabbing, and tards across the globe are proclaiming how it could've been much worse if everyone was armed.

Even though as often happens the shooter would just get shot.-

People have tried to claim to meet you can't stab more then like 1 or 2 people in a situation. Numerous times proven wrong

What level was his father? Normal special agent? Orbwhat? Being a lowly special agent doesn't mean you get special treatment
How long was he there?

His father was retired from the FBI for several years prior to the Parkland Shooting IIRC. I think it's a bit of a brain bug to be honest that his Dad was FBI and that somehow 'boosted' David Hogg exceptionally. The only thing I know about his Dad is that he was an FBI Agent and that's it. If anything I think a Streisand Effect about that one fact probably had more of an impact on David Hogg's presence then the actual fact his Dad was in the FBI. I think if Davids Dad was a small business owner or public school teacher or longshoreman or whatever and the same sort of Father figure, David Hogg would be pretty much right where he is now. You don't need to be an FBI Agent or related to one to be media savvy.

 

[Zachowon]

Not at all.
People Kistler like to always tie back to the government

Of course he is. But that's because the Media is lefty, no conspiracy needed. Let's say there's an alternate universe for a second, where the FBI is by and large completely based and wants everyone to have a gun as an institution, but everything else is the same, including David's dad's beliefs on guns, David's beliefs, and the media. The same exact thing would happen, he's still blow up and be a media darling. But if we swapped the media's opinion, there's another kid, Kyle something or other, that was progun but got no media time. He'd be in Hogg's shoes right now.

i highly doubt that Kyle would embezzle $1 million.
