Second Amendment School Walkouts and Media Framing
Students at several Bay Area high schools, including California High School in San Ramon, staged walkouts in support of the Second Amendment. The hosts critique a local news report that framed the event as being "against" the stance of students who walk out to protest "gun violence." They argue this creates a false equivalency and uses neuro-linguistic programming to suggest that supporting the right to bear arms is synonymous with supporting violence.
