Topic: School Walkout

While many students participated in walkouts for gun control, others organized "pro-Second Amendment" walkouts. In Wisconsin, a 15-year-old student is suing his school district after being disciplined for wearing t-shirts depicting firearms. The lawsuit alleges that the school violated his freedom of expression while allowing political speech from the opposing side.

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.

An anecdote describes a group of students in Austin, Texas, who organized a school walkout on April 20th, coinciding with the anniversary of the Columbine shooting. The students were observed in a local head shop purchasing Swisher Sweets cigars to create blunts, leading to a discussion on the mechanics of cannabis consumption.

Students across the United States participated in a 17-minute walkout to protest gun violence following the Parkland shooting. The hosts argue that the event was organized by adult political groups to use children as tools for a gun control agenda. They critique student interviews for lacking historical context regarding wars and the Second Amendment.

Students across the United States are organizing a national walkout on March 14th to demand stricter gun legislation following the Florida shooting. The hosts argue that the Second Amendment explicitly prohibits Congress from infringing on the right to bear arms. They assert that the only legal way to enact the protesters' demands would be through a constitutional amendment requiring the approval of 75% of the states.
