America is great! So... just to get it straight? Your right to have and hold a gun.. For fun.. Trumps the rights of all daughters, and sons... to learn, to play, in a place, that’s safe? You are not defending freedom, the only thing that’s freed.. Is Your Greed. The cash rolls in, the shooting starts again, the NRA write... A. Big. Fat. Cheque. Whilst kids learn to “hit the deck!”? You want teachers trained as shooters, Not as tutors.

Tutors not Shooters
America is great! So... just to get it straight? Your right to have and hold a gun.. For fun.. Trumps the rights of all daughters, and sons... to learn, to play, in a place, that’s safe? You are not defending freedom, the only thing that’s freed.. Is Your Greed. The cash rolls in, the shooting starts again, the NRA write... A. Big. Fat. Cheque. Whilst kids learn to “hit the deck!”? You want teachers trained as shooters, Not as tutors.
Inspired by the brave kids at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. and the inaction of those in power who have the means and responsibility to stop it happening again.
