Just as I have said before. Most of them were professional bussed in protesters. This was not some grass roots thing started by a bunch of high school kids. It was planned by a group of George Soros backed organizations who virtue signaled by having a few high school kids show up.

1. Love to see her methods for that "study" (Probably a small random sample, which is fine...but still would like to see it)

 

2. You are committing a logical fallacy by leaping from her result (90% were over 18) to "professional bused in protesters funded by George Soros backed organizations". 

 

At most I would have never expected the numbers to be more than 50% for under 18's. I would expect most would show up with a parent or guardian if they were under 18. Then I'd also account for the percentage of seniors in high school (in March of their senior year) who are already 18. 

 

Yes ultimately I'm sure the number of actual minors at the event were probably less than what has been reported by some media outlets, that is still a big leap to the claims you are making. So you need to provide some actual evidence for those claims.

I knew you were right when you said it before.  Just as I believe I am right that Mr. Hogg is just about THE best-spoken 17 year old I have ever had to listen to.  Having raised two teens myself, his sentences most assuredly are not all of his own thought processes.

Our President can barely construct complete sentences without a speech writer.

 

I have no problem if an adult helped a teenager put together a speech when they were going to be speaking on front of thousands.

Do you have a problem when the speech is what a group of adults wants the kid to say so that it benefits their agenda?  Their words, not his?

Why do you say that is the case? 

 

Many people would use a speech writer when they are speaking for a large audience. That doesn't mean the content of the speech is all ideas of the speech writer.

 

A more reasonable thought would be perhaps he knew he had things he wanted to say, wrote it out as he would want it, and then someone took that and polished it for a large audience.

 

Or we can just make wild assumptions and conjectures without any evidence...that may be good for some people here.

In your short lifetime, how many 17 year old kids had their own personal speech writers?

Or put another way... how eloquent were David Hogg’s converstations back in January?

He was going to be speaking for thousands of people. Im sure someone helped him, I would be more surprised if no one did.

 

How does someone helping him craft the speech mean that they weren't his ideas?

 

When Trump uses a speech writer is everything he says just thoughts from his writer? No wonder he sounds so much more intelligent...

Ok, you got me there.  I’ll shut up now.

I merely an using it to point out that you are making jumps in your reasoning.

 

So the young man had help writing his speech. Why is that a problem? Adults get help for speeches all the time. That doesn't mean the ideas weren't his. It is just practical and reasonable for anyone planning to speak in front of thousands and on live television.

 

If I were his parent I wouldn't have allowed him to just write his own speech and give it without someone going through it with him. Just seems completely reasonable to me.

The way this country is heading, being on the way out may not be such a bad thing.  And I don’t constantly degrade anyone.  I reposted the meme, I did not make it.  And yes, I thought it was funny, especially when I hear his voice in my head.

the way  this country is heading? but i thought maga.

clearly you are not behind the whole 'kids today are stupid' narrative, it's not even new..it's just being used right now because i guess that's all the strict nra die hards have going for them at this point.
