We're laughing at him. If that counts as under our skin, so be it.

Hmmm, I'm not seeing a whole lot of mirth coming from the anti-Hoggers.But keep telling yourself that and maybe, just maybe, it will come true.

I wonder if the left is as outraged with Joan Walsh's treatment of Kyle Kashuv as they are Ingraham and Hogg?

Something tells me an excuse for Walsh's "behavior" will most certainly cover that all up and she isn't nearly as threatening as that mean old hag Ingraham.

Quit flattering the kid. As any dumbed-down, brainwashed, woe-is-poor-little-ol'-me the-world-is-so-cruel snowflake, he's to be pitied.

OK, we're laughing at YOU for taking him seriously. Better?

I'm laughing at the New Democrat Party. They continue to grasp at strawmen trying to regain some type of relevance. Their recent list of failures includes ObamaCare, President Obama, climate change, siding with illegal aliens and against American citizens, 2016 elections and sanctuary cities. Of course, lets not forget the vote on tax cuts. Now,it is a run on the second amendment under the leadership of a high school kid with average SAT scores.

I think the New Democrat Party was started by the "hippy movement" in the 1960's. At least this time their posterchild is clean cut and washes.

Yeah...the outside of the cup is clean but the inside is filthy with socialist propaganda.

Sorry, big guy, I don't take David Hogg seriously, althogh any 17 y.o. who can bring someone with their own network show to publicly apologize can't be completely dismissed.That being said, The Hogg will be the subject of one of those "Where are They Now?" segments in a decade or so.He's the type of high school self-important types who grow up to be members of Congress.

I taught in a high school for the last 23 years of my career and there were very few teenagers I encountered that had enough life experience for me to lean on for advice.Actually there were none.Nice kids but until someone's on their own , earning their way, their insights have limited value.

Nice reach on your part, though.A for effort.

One of these things is not like the other.Hogg/Ingraham started when David Hogg tweeted that he had not gotten into UCLA. This had nothing to do with his political opinions or his stand on gun control. Reading his tweet it seemed to me that he was not whining just stating the fact. Then Laura Ingraham, for no purpose except to mock and diminish Hogg, began tweeting about what a whiny baby she thought he was.

John Walsh made no personal attacks on Kyle Kushav. She “Liked” a tweet supporting one made by the father of a slain student. A father who had been in an intense twitter discussion with Kushav.

She never mentioned Kashuv at all at that time. But then he got all defensive and tweeted sarcastically about how CNN would never take a side.

Ingraham attacked a teenager for no good reason except to diminish his influence politically. Walsh liked a tweet that the Gun Control freaks disagree with, so now she is under attack. Unfortunately for them, it is a worthless attack.

You may have noticed that I seldom respond to you. Let me explain why. You never post anything worth responding to.

It's still running

The only way to stop these totalitarian leftists is to start boycotting every company that succumbs to their pressure, Then the economic choice for the companies is not "succumb to leftist pressure or get boycotted", it's "I'm going to get boycotted either way, so I might as well do whatever I think is correct based on the merits of the individual case and not worry about these totalitarian ass wipes".

I don't have a strong view on Hoggs. I certainly feel sympathy for anyone that has gone through a traumatic shooting like that and lost friends etc... However, all that said, I'm willing to bet that he has put less energy into the gun violence issue than I have and I haven't given it all that much thought or study.

So what exactly makes him qualified to be a spokesperson on this?

It's all BS.

This is a continuation of the "shut up and dribble" comment she made that I wholeheartedly agree with.

If I want to know about a specific company, I'll read what Warren Buffett has to say.

If I want to know how to run a pick and roll effectively, I'll read what Mike D'Antoni has to say.

If I want to know how to train a horse up to a Grade 1 stake off a layoff, I'll read what Bob Baffert has to say.

However, I would never ask D'Antoni for training advice, Warren for basketball advice, or Baffert for investment advice.

All these celebrities in sports and Hollywood think that because they have expertise in one area, that means their views on other topics are just as valid. They have a right to express their opinions, but most of them are full of crap and have no idea what they are talking about. As a country we'd be better off listening to the reasoned arguments of experts on both sides and they should just shut up and dribble, train, coach or go to school.
