What's this?

Schools and kids are much more aware of it. Social media bullying is a

different animal but I don't think kids not wanting to associate with someone who seems "off" is really part of the equation there.

Hogg is pushing back on clear back packs -- HokieDan95 03/26/2018 1:19PM

How many rifles have been brought in by backpacks? ** -- 111Balz 03/26/2018 5:20PM

Um, all the guns were brought into the Mandaly Bay in rucksacks. -- ConnHoo 03/26/2018 6:05PM

Or they could put up metal detectors or limit the size of bookbags ** -- 111Balz 03/27/2018 08:41AM

I like that. NYC HSs have detectors. ** -- ConnHoo 03/27/2018 2:47PM

Are you advocating assault weapon ban in exchange for clear plastic bags? ** -- Guy LeDouche 03/26/2018 7:14PM

And? ** -- hoothat 03/26/2018 5:46PM

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say they are considering weapons -- HokieDan95 03/26/2018 5:30PM

Uhh, rifles are the problem...duh ** -- hoothat 03/26/2018 5:36PM

Does anyone know exactly what they are demanding? Much like the question -- Hokie5150 03/26/2018 4:10PM

Here is the editorial that ran in their student newspaper with 9 proposals -- WahooMatt05 03/26/2018 4:24PM

Liberals often chafe at mental health screenings -- 25Charlie 03/26/2018 5:56PM

I agree that’s a tough trade off -- WahooMatt05 03/26/2018 6:35PM

Lol,a ban on high velocity semi auto rifles -- hoothat 03/26/2018 4:35PM

As a pro-gun person, that was the only solid "nope" the article got from me -- Tafkam Hokie 03/26/2018 9:30PM

How would a ban from manufacture and sale of semi-automatic rifles? -- Freddyburg Hokie 03/27/2018 11:59AM

The article says semi-automatic weapons firing high velocity round. -- JohnHoo2 03/26/2018 4:52PM

My guess is that they simply don't know a lot about guns -- WahooMatt05 03/26/2018 5:01PM

That, or they're trying to avoid using "assault rifle" or "assault weapon" -- Freddyburg Hokie 03/27/2018 1:16PM

Or they just parroted the BS others were saying on TV ** -- hoothat 03/26/2018 5:45PM

Exactly right, but the right wing talking points say to make fun of anyone -- VAGentleman05 03/26/2018 5:05PM

Got the memo? No, I am just not entirely ignorant on firearms -- hoothat 03/26/2018 5:40PM

Lefties are mocked because they are proposing clueless solutions ... -- 25Charlie 03/26/2018 5:47PM

They also make fun of old white dudes when they try to write -- Tafkam Hokie 03/27/2018 12:29AM

They are clueless on everything they discuss -- TomKazanski 03/26/2018 6:13PM

GOP apparently no longer has issue with the Mo Money part. ** -- Hoodafan 03/26/2018 6:30PM

Sadly true, Ryan is worse than Obama ** -- TomKazanski 03/26/2018 7:24PM

So...they want to illegalize semi automatic rifles ** -- hoothat 03/26/2018 5:01PM

And here's a Fox News poll on the popularity of some of the proposals -- WahooMatt05 03/26/2018 4:25PM

They conveniently left off the last question ** -- hooyorkcity 03/26/2018 4:55PM

See if this works... -- hooyorkcity 03/26/2018 4:58PM

Wow. RWMF fear is palpable in this thread. -- WaxHoo 03/26/2018 3:34PM

You know it buddy ** -- HokieDan95 03/26/2018 3:46PM

LOL! I think your prune juice may have fermented. ** -- Hoodafan 03/26/2018 3:39PM

Hope you're having a great day, Hooda. ** -- WaxHoo 03/26/2018 3:55PM

Of course! I even manage to realize 3:34 isn't morning. ** -- Hoodafan 03/26/2018 4:18PM

That's the kind of attitude we need on this board. I hope you are well too -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 4:03PM

Yep. Any time, psych. Just let me know ** -- WaxHoo 03/26/2018 4:18PM

Hogg is going feral ** -- Tuckahokie 03/26/2018 3:09PM

This is how you know safety isnt his main goal ** -- TomKazanski 03/26/2018 2:53PM

Should be popular with the sports crowd ** -- Lupos 03/26/2018 2:03PM

Seriously. Everyone hates those bags. Should be bipartisan agreement here. ** -- WahooMatt05 03/26/2018 2:15PM

Agreed, on this, Hogg is right ** -- Lupos 03/26/2018 3:13PM

There is a certain argument that that's refreshing. At least it shows -- hoolstoptheheels 03/26/2018 1:56PM

Why are people surprised...he's a kid. ** -- hoothat 03/26/2018 1:42PM

The other girl that's getting a lot of attention. Emma i think... -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 1:29PM

And these attacks on these children are an effort to discredit the movement -- hooshouse 03/26/2018 2:33PM

The script for the attacks is coming from the NRA... go look at their stuff ** -- NJHoo 03/26/2018 4:42PM

The movement doesn't need help discrediting itself -- hoothat 03/26/2018 2:57PM

You. ** -- Hoocinogenic 03/26/2018 3:42PM

It was actually 'You!' -- WahooMatt05 03/26/2018 4:03PM

Ewe. ** -- hoothat 03/26/2018 3:45PM

That doesn't mean they bullied him. ** -- hooshouse 03/26/2018 1:33PM

Kinda does. That's the nature of kids. They are cruel. -- hoolstoptheheels 03/26/2018 2:10PM

Not necessarily. Lots of kids in school that my son stays away from -- KCHoo 03/26/2018 2:47PM

None of us know the circumstances in this case, but there's a difference -- Hoo05Dave 03/27/2018 01:03AM

I don't think that's right KC. There is focus on bullying - because in -- hoolstoptheheels 03/26/2018 3:17PM

I’m just going from my experience with my kid and from being a kid back in -- KCHoo 03/26/2018 3:29PM

I think it’s a little of both. Kids aren’t getting -- Hoojack 03/26/2018 4:14PM

Schools and kids are much more aware of it. Social media bullying is a -- WahooRQ 03/26/2018 3:27PM

You forgot to call him an idiot and how he doesn't know anything because -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 3:40PM

Hool is quite far from being an idiot, idiot. ** -- WahooRQ 03/26/2018 4:45PM

Agreed. Anti bullying, plus removing to volume of weapons -- HoosWillWin 03/26/2018 2:29PM

Avoiding someone displaying mental illness is not bullying. ** -- hooshouse 03/26/2018 2:17PM

My friend, that is not how kids act towards an individual -- hoolstoptheheels 03/26/2018 2:34PM

It can be if it is passive aggressive. ** -- HoosWillWin 03/26/2018 2:31PM

Watch the clip and convince yourself of that. -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 1:45PM

I believe in common sense no matter where it falls on the political -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 2:01PM

Nailed it. Bullying and depression are uniquely American. -- WahooRQ 03/26/2018 1:54PM

You got it. Only happens here. -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 2:06PM

Nonsense as usual. Dishonest too. You're on a roll, psycho hoakie. -- WahooRQ 03/26/2018 2:09PM

Man, you really don't like to think of the things you've done. Hit a nerve. -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 2:14PM

You are as weird as you are boring and dumb. Bye now. ** -- WahooRQ 03/26/2018 2:18PM

Hey RQ all these psychotic posts of yours -- HokieDan95 03/26/2018 2:35PM

Keep attacking the kid. It helps us. ** -- hooshouse 03/26/2018 1:24PM

Oh so now you want logic and common sense to decide the attacks rather -- Hoodafan 03/26/2018 1:45PM

Someone has to. He's wandering off script. ** -- psychobilly 03/26/2018 1:30PM
