I taught a hunter education class last weekend, at our gun range, that had 12 middle school students from our local middle/high school. 1/2 girls, 1/2 boys.. they represent 10% of that school. We had a pretty good talk at lunch about firearms and they all mentioned the discomfort they felt for being pro-hunting and pro-firearms in this current environment. My daughter is a senior at that same school and she came home on Monday telling me that a whole pack of middle schoolers were telling her how cool her dad was. She's always been one to take the younger kids under her wing, so she's made sure to let them know they have her support if they get hassled by any of the SJW students. It gives me hope when I hear this. One of my fellow instructors is a student in that same school and has successfully gotten hunter education into the school for next year. Slowly but surely we're going to win in our little corner of the world.

I'm also 100% sure those kids walking out based on that event, are totally unaware of a letter sent to Obama by a survivor who "gets" it:

Columbine Survivor Pens Bold Open Letter to Obama Rejecting Gun Control: ‘Whose Side Are You On?’

Columbine survivor Evan Todd released an open letter to President Barack Obama on Wednesday in which he offers a point-by-point analysis of proposed firearms control initiatives, dismissing them as ineffective and dangerous to Americans’ rights.

He recently outlined why he fervently disagrees with the gun control policies that have been proposed in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. TheBlaze interviewed Todd earlier this week and subsequently detailed how his experience being shot back in 1999 has shaped his views on the issue.

In our local school 50 of 1450 students protested. In addition to the 50 protestors, there were 10 pro-gun protestors. A total of 60 out of 1450 is 4%. Not overwhelming on either side.
