In a recent letter, Jeanette Walker, while making some otherwise possibly reasonable comments, uses March for Our Lives — the response of Parkland High School students (the survivors!) and other teenagers around the country to try to protect themselves from mass gun-violence — as an example of "the left pushing its agenda." And here I thought the political right was pro-life.
But Ms. Walker believes "no teenagers could have organized so quickly." And there are those promoting the lie — "many are saying!" — that the murdered high school students were actually actors pretending. I suppose that's no surprise, when we have a notorious liar for president. But Ms. Walker, wait for those teenagers to vote. Then we'll see how quickly they can get organized.
