RE: “These shootings are aimed at students our age,” she said. “Older generations don’t seem to understand the fear placed in us. We need to take matters in our own hands and try to make a change.”


Dear Snowflakes:

(1) Mass shootings aren't aimed at you. Shootings are committed by mentally ill, or politically radicalized, people with access to guns. And they're aimed at adults in Las Vegas, adults in night-clubs, people at marathons, kids in elementary or high schools, etc. You're not special.
(2) Don't dare condescend to said "older generations" who have faced much more than you seem to be aware of. Don't they teach history in classrooms any more? Or is it all "social and emotional learning" nowadays? Some generations have actually faced serious poverty and war and the threat of nuclear annihilation. You're not special.
(3) Cutting class isn't "taking matters in your own hands." I understand that you feel self-righteous about it, but...that doesn't make any difference whatsoever. You're not special.
