- National Rifle Association board member and classic rocker Ted Nugent slammed survivors of the Parkland, Florida, school shooting, calling them "liars" and "poor, mushy-brained children."
Nugent made the comments during an interview on "The Joe Pags Show," a nationally syndicated conservative radio program.
"All you have to do now is not only feel sorry for the liars, but you have to go against them and pray to God that the lies can be crushed and the liars can be silenced so that real measures can be put into place to actually save children's lives," Nugent said about the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students.
If Ted got out of Viet Nam he would never hold up when the bullets were flying at a high school.
Would the messiah? Obama?
Vietnam is one word
And Ted Nugent said he was "done with hate" about 9-months back. I guess that makes him a liar...
The ONLY LIAR is David Hogg CRISIS ACTOR "I got on my bike and rode 3 miles to the school" O Wait, I mean, I was in my AP Class... LOL
He literally didn’t even call the kids soulless 😂😂
CNN lies?
At least Ted has given the kids a clue that they need to go elsewhere for a balanced view of history.
CNN CNN!!!!! HOGGWASH!!!!!! CNN CNN!!!!!!!! HOGGWASH!!!!!
Ted who?
Those students have more integrity and honor than you will ever have.
Rocker??? Now that’s a joke. I saw him on stage, before he was senile, and boy, his only reputation was about how loud he played. There never was any music there, just noise. I think he will just be remembered for his guns and sounds coming out of them.
I'm fairly certain that Nugent said he'd stop being so outspoken in this political climate because he didn't want to make it any worse like....8 months ago. Guess his love of guns outweighs human decency once again.
Just say that facts get you angry and after a mass shooting people should act on feelings and opinions instead that way less typing for you
It's a sad time when the adults are acting like kids and vice-versa.
Jim Bloak, you mean like trump? Nugent? Limbaugh? Ingraham? Or maybe Alex Jones who said Sandy Hook was a hoax?
Jim Bloak fuck off jim this is the second retarded comment of yours i've read in the last minute. Whats the problem? You realizing these kidds have more brains than you at 18? You sound like a fucking loser.
Fred GFY Smith they lack commen sense and with out commen sense they have no brains so blow it oit ur ass
Fred GFY Smith 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I feel part of the problem is that we don't listen to children, and at least hear out what they have to say. Many children nowadays are highly intelligent. We should listen to them, and not always discount them. The days of when children should only be seen and not heard are over.
Ask someone that just got in a car accident if they want to go on a car ride... people need the right to protect themselves. Taking away guns takes away our right to fight attackers. Asking the government to take our guns is the same as saying “please help me live. I can’t live without someone holding my hand.”. I’ve learned that you can’t control every aspect of life. You can’t stop bad things from happening, it’s a part of nature. However, we can learn to react to bad things differently, and learn better ways to treat each other.
Big tough Ted... Has ran from every fight presented to him...Pants shittin', draft dodging, cowardly Ted...
Russel Mack Says the guy that idolizes Pussy Ted.. Do you idolize other cowards who run from all altercations??
Cmon its Ted Nugent. I cant be friends with someone that thinks highly of Ted's opinion
That is because you. are intolerant of other people’s views.
Not Tom Cruise ...who's ted nugent? How old r u?
Ted Nugent / Kid Rock 2020
Not Tom Cruise
Lmao thank you 🙏
Jonny Colt
Bahahahaha 🤣
I’m so happy I don’t live in America...
Nugent is right. AND the shooter was bullied beyond all recognition. Emma publicly admits to bullying the poor kid. Blame bullying not guns. You should investigate the bullies and remove them from school.
I would like for Mr. Nugent to sit down with anyone of the survivors of the Parkland Shooting and tell them they have no soul.
No....wait....
seriously...
Ted Nugent? Lol
_the Parkland kids are bigger stars than Ted Nugent. when did he ever draw a crowd of 800,000 people?_
Crypto Chase at this point who gives a fuck? He’s got two hits and I don’t think he even sings on anyone of them. Kids shouldn’t have their schools shot up. Kids shouldn’t have to worry about that when going to school.
So no then? Nugent never had a crowd of 800,000...thanks for backing up Stephen's point fool lol.
Guns are not the problem....schools are no guns zones and have no armed guards.....thats like leaving a bank open at night then crying all money gets stolen and now you want to make owning door locks a crime because someone did not lock up..............IT IS RETARDED just like GUNS are the problem....RETARDS,harden the schools and go after the failed FBI and Local Sheriff that failed those kids. The problem was that monster kid should have been shut down years before this happened.......you will not get the GUNS....you will DIE trying.
David Hogg did not draw a Crowd of 800,000....he went to a protest with 800,000 people and was one of a 100 speakers. The crowd was there to attend a event . David was one small part of a much larger machine.
according to secret service the crowed was 200,000 still a good size crowed buy skewed by the media.
Leave it to the Clown News Network to stand with the students that are basically saying, please take away our rights, one by one. Ted my not be the most eloquent speaker in expressing his point ,but the point is made and correct.. These students are trying to do things without knowing what they are doing.. kids or not they need to be called out and held accountable.
Didn't Ted literally shit his pants to avoid the Vietnam draft?
Humanoid Sounds almost like the bone spur problem that prevented someone else from serving.
Smart guy. So are the Vietnamese marching down main street today?
Get over the shit about him shitting his pants not wanting to go to Vietnam Muhammad Ali refused to go to Vietnam a lot of people refuse to go to Vietnam that’s why they took off and they went to Canada so kiss my ass just remember that a black American world famous boxer Muhammad Ali Cassius Clay his real name before he became a Muslim remember that it wasn’t just a white man a black man did it too
Hahhaha
@@pittypat9220 it was against Muhammad Ali's religious beliefs to go to war. That is the difference.
Ted Nugent, the vietnam era poop his pants hero.
Uncle Ted's right on the money. David Hogg called me a "Baby killer ! " I take offense to that!
Yup you can't criticize the students because that's America now
Apologies are pointless if they're not meant. Adults vs children? My, my .. aren't we mature? Consider the source I guess.
Linda Casey oh, my... Your completely right... We should just sit back and listen and love any and everything they spew... They want our second amendment, they use even more fabricated numbers then CNN, Stelter even says there were some things he wanted to correct... But your entirely right... These people are such idiotic pieces of shit for attacking these children with FACTS!!!!!!
Children of course being 17 and 18 yr olds... Old enough to have a gun, old enough to vote... Hiding behind the title of child to avoid criticism
Public figures can attack our rights with no criticism, or its bullying if their a "kid"...forget the second amendment... They already took our first.!
Ted sounds extremely triggered, pun intended
Jason Vegan :But isn't this indicative of many republicans would ho around waving the flag, talking about freedom and the Constitution (for which they know nothing about), freedom this, and freedom that, how they love our soldiers and our veterans, while they're cutting their programs designed to assist them? While they themselves avoided the draft or received education deferments, claimed bone spurs, or those who intentionally disabled themselves, or fled the country in an effort to avoid serving this great country "they" say they love? Are these our freedom loving republicans? The lists is just full of them during the draft times!
"He's name calling and attacking their education" lolol
I love how the adults are stopping down to the level of what most would call juvenile name calling, while the highschool students are meeting it with stride. It’s just crazy how stupid these adult attackers are.
who cares... the guy is irrelevant and thus so is his opinion.. He is intitled to his views. Stop giving it importance through media cover and he can crawl back to whereever he came from!
Kat - Agreed! *Who in their right mind would ever think that a draft dodging drug addicted idiot like Nugent had anything of substance to listen to? This guy has always been an idiot & a loser. Now he's a right wing idiot & loser. A worthless excuse for a human.*
Kat Odeon ell Right on point. Couldn't of said it better :)
I agree that the news shouldn’t give him a pulpit- just ignore this ignorant hater... however, he is not irrelevant as he is an NRA board member and has been a guest at the Whitehouse... so he’s not nobody; that’s why this is very bad all in all.
WhiteStripe333 - Not true. Ted Nugent's opinion is not relevant. Period. He's a worthless, spineless POS.
Joanne Woodward - *What you posted is absolutely not true. Where on earth did you get that distorted, cruel information?*
I love that no one is allowed to disagree with these kids. Im a student of history, history shows what happens when you take the means to defend yourself away. Surviving a tragedy does not make you an expert on policy
Wow! Brennan Clark, Sorry to inform you but the right to vote being age-dependent does not, in any way, restrict their other constitutional rights. To equate those who are on the cusp of the voting age, (and many of them actually are OF age), to illegal immigrants is just nonsensical. Looks to me like YOU are the dumbass.
ha ha ha - Brennan - yes - you sound like someone really worth listening to.
Oh you poor thing! Don't you see that they ARE defending themselves???
Uhm.. 1. No said you can’t disagree with them. This segment was about people trashing them and calling them names. There is a difference. 2.history has shown no such thing. 3 you are a student of nothing.
They'll be old enough to vote out all the trash and cowards in the White House.
Nugent must have been looking in a mirror when he made those remarks.
Why won't CNN report that the PERMIT for the March for Our Lives in Washington was applied for two months prior to the shooting ?
A man like this on the top of the NRA. That says it all.
Jailbait you look so good to me
Jailbait won't you set me free
Jailbait you look fine fine fine
I know I've got to have you in a matter of time
Ted Nugent - Jailbait Lyric
ALLEGEDLY: "DOES ONE, OF THE "FOSTER THE PEOPLE" MUSICIANS, RESEMBLE, THIS "PARKLAND HIGH SCHOOL "TAKEN INTO CUSTOSY" GUY.?"
He didn’t call them soulless, he was referring to their ideologies, not them.
Lmfao NRA corporate puppets doing what they do best
Another draft dodger given way way too much attention.
CLOCKS TICKING that's nice
Michael , tell that to all the families who in the past lost someone dying for you.
No, we were talking about Donald the rapist Trump
Emily R wowzers aliens really do exist
Speech they show wasnt even directed at the kids, he said he felt sorry for them because the education system has lied to them. Where is this directed at the kids?
The pics leading in to the interview was all I needed. Just one more reason why cnn has to go.
why are we even listening to this man....we know he is crazy .....go away ted
Who's Ted Nugent?
He should have stuck with the music.
Wango Tango was one of the most beautiful songs ever composed and show the depth of his character.
Nugent is trash, always was always will be
Nugent a great guitar player, come on man. Nugent is two chord trash. This is what I call a great guitar player czcams.com/video/qdiRJyI6bxY/video.html
Sorry to say but Nugent will be forgotten soon enough. No originality, no subtlety, no melodies or variations on themes. He's vulgar, can't sing but screams. A beer musician on speed. Frank Zappa could play a guitar, Mississippi John Hurt, Freddy McDowell, Eddie Lang. Come on Americans, go back to your tradition and fuck teenybobber fake stars who sold their soul to the NRA.
Ted nugent cant say this but david Hogg can. Double standard again.
colton reeder intellectual debate ? LMAO !!!
Dave Dicks The other side's idea of an intellectual debate is to say "it's to soon to talk about this" and then deflect towards everything else. Lmao
Hogg is 18. Nugent is 69. Maybe the 69 year old should have a little more maturity and class than the 18 year old. But of course he has much less.
Dan Szekeres there is nothing to debate. Unless you want to talk about the coward that sat outside and did notbing. Or the sheriff office that failed these kids. "See something , say something " - they did !! This isn't Ted's fault, NRA's fault, or any guns fault. I don't doubt the pain and or fear many of these kids had. But the talking points , the rehearsing already wrote for them lines.
Not allowing walkouts for kids who support the 2nd amendment, an the NRA. The making kids write Congress and demand tougher gun laws. While many kids may have already felt the way it appeared at DC, many didn't and still don't understand the truth about guns. Like the number of people who die from rifles. 5 times the amount of people are killed by a knife than an assault rifle. In fact, 5 times the amount of all rifles combined.
3 times the amount of people are killed by a blunt object, than those killed by all rifles combined. 8 kids a day die from texting or being in the car while someone else was texting and driving.
If you want to blame the NRA for even 1 of those killed at any school, then blame Planned Parenthood for those killed by abortion. All I'm saying is a little common sense would go a long way. And stop using kids to push a political view. Because that's all it is. Not one law could have stopped this. And good people don't need new laws to continue being good. Bad people don't care about the laws we have now. Why would they care about new laws?
Dave Dicks So you start off by saying there's nothing to debate. Then came the deflection: The Sheriff's department, the security guard, texting while driving, abortion etc..let's drag everyrhing else that we can into it. You did make some good points but of course you couldn't leave out all the rhetoric.
It's amazing how this country is completely unable to handle the truth. Kudos Ted.
Adrenaline The Dead - Snowflake? That would be the idiots calling Ted a "bully" for speaking the truth. And my precious guns aren't in danger, this entire country is if we keep listening to all of these whine assess that bitch and complain about every little thing that doesn't go their way. Guess what, everyone doesn't have to agree on everything and we are allowed to voice or opinion regardless of who it offends. It's called free speech people. Another great part of our Constitution much like the right to keep and bear arms.
Truth from a draft dodging hypocrite ?
Norm Ellison - Truth is truth. Doesn't matter who is saying it now does it.
Jfourtwo0 yes, but when has a socialist clown cared about the truth and not instead of what his cult leaders in the media tell him to think in order for them to support his pretensions.
If it IS the truth and not just a very subjective opinion. We are living in dangerous times where the truth is smothered by partisan propaganda from the left , right and Russian intelligence that is just simplistic and provocative Bots to divide us . I admire Uncle Ted's strong work ethic and individual style but that does not mean he isn't full of shit some of the time.
Nowadays giving your opinion is "attacking".....
Ted Nugent dodges actual debates like he did the Vietnam draft
MOST young people did not agree with the war in Viet nam....hundreds of thousands of "kids" did what ever they needed to protest the war. One of the most powerful tools they had was to not go. Ted was no Coward, He was a young man protesting a unjust war. No different then you kids 50 years later protesting EVERYTHING you dont like.....which is alot more that one war...you freaks hate america and everything she stands for. Ted has always stood with the Constitution and our Declaration of Independence unlike you libtards wanting to hand over your God given rights to tyrannical governments. You are are a perfect example of ignorance and a life of bliss from not researching anything. You are a idiot
Crypto Idiot....So what is it about this loser (Nugent) that you like so much that you are writing here defending this POS? His 15 minutes of fame passed decades ago but he wants attention. Why doesn't he go poop in his pants again and get the hell out the public eye!!
EddyCurrents really...? I was sure he destroyed Pearce Morgan😐
Right on!
Ali was a true man.
In principle part of what Crypto says is correct,
Doubt applies to Ted. Don't remember Ted have anti war songs or speaking out against war. Many others did.
+EddyCurrents Bet you supported Bill Clinton, a guy who avoided the draft by staying in England and actually committed adultery while in office.
this is incomplete for me. Did you show what he said? in the actual show.
WHY was he riding a bike at home and not in school?????????!!!!!!!?????
He rode his bike BACK to school at 6:00 well after the shooting.
Why does anyone give a rat's ass about what some has-been classic rocker thinks? You can bet that if someone started shooting up one of his concerts, he'd be one of the first to run like hell. He might be good at shooting unarmed, defenseless critters on his ranch, but he wouldn't feel so tough going up against an active shooter with an AR-15. The reality is that the Parkland kids have seen more real-life, life-and-death "combat" than Nugent has. They've been through a hail of bullets and have seen their friends die. Can Nugent say the same? Nope. Nugent lives a pampered life of luxury. He only pretends to be a tough guy.
PHANPHOTO1 Bravo.Your comment is dead on.
You are completely CLUELESS about Ted Nugent. He has a army of weapons at his concerts. AR-15's and dozens of other weapons are part of the show. He is armed to the teeth everywhere he goes. Anyone foolish enough to start shooting at a Ted Concert will have Hundreds of weapons drawn down on them in less then 10 seconds. .....take your ignorance and Shut the hell up.
Crypto Chase it is highly doubtful that nugent would actually fire back at shooters.
Crypto chase,wich in turn would get innocent people killed,lovely reasoning.
The Nuge is America, the Nuge is a hero of the 2nd Amendment, the Nuge will eat your fuckin face if you cross either of them. Long live the Nuge.
muh family values
MR.TED I THANK YOU. MY DAUGHTER (WHO IS TRAINED & HAS HAD CONCEALED CARRY SINCE DAY ONE IN FL) WORKED IN ADMINISTRATION MY ONLY GAND DAUGHTER WAS A SOFTMORE WHO HAD TO STEP OVER BLLEDING CLASSMATES. SHE HADE BLOOD ON HER SHOES .SO TELL ME AN TRAINED ARMED TEACHER COULDN'T HAVE SAVED SOME OF THE KIDS .AT THE LEAST KEPT HIM ON THE GROUND FLOOR.I FURMLY BELIEVE THE SOOTER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT TWICE BEFORE THIS HARRIFIC MASICURE. NONE OF THESE PEOPLE WILL EVER BE THE SAME .MY GRANDDAUGHTER NOW HAS A SERVICE DOG SHE IS TRAING
He didn't call them soulless, he called the tactics that influence young children into certain political view points soulless.
Goes after underage girls and craps his pants to dodge the draft. Conservative hero. Wrap your head around that one.
What have you accomplished by 20?
Joe Po - I haven't accomplished adopting an underage girlfriend so I could legally live with her. I haven't succeeded in crapping my pants to get out of something. I have accomplished plenty though, and I think I'm a way better guitar player than he is. But, all that aside, would you ask that same question if Ted was a Democrat? Or, would you be posting that he is a pedophile who craps his pants to dodge the draft? I'm guessing the latter. I call out disgusting cowards regardless of their party affiliation.
Trey Cortez - I don't disagree about not wanting to go to war. But, that hardly makes him a hero. Try looking at the hypocrisy of it all. It makes him look kind of stupid when he whines about pussy liberals. Doesn't it? As far as the 17 year old, there were other allegations involving girls who were younger.
Joe Po ...when I was twenty, I was thousands of miles from home, wearing a uniform, and carrying an M-16. I wish I was as smart, brave, and patriotic as Tough Guy Teddy, and learned how to fake mental illness by shitting on myself and not showering for extended periods.
Teddy is quite the role model for Republicans: a hypocritical, tough talking coward with racist tendencies who lusts after children. He could easily be president some day.
& yet he is still right on David Hogg being soulless & a liar for not being honest on his location...
Why all this hate among us ?
It wasn't the gun it was the individual....
The point everyone is missing is, if these kids were brought up in a society where there were no babysitters except for social media, video games, and the complete lack of supervision. We cannot expect toddlers to understand the difference between right and wrong by learning it on their own. It needs to be instilled in them as a child, and they will carry it the rest of their lives.. I've said this thousands of times now, and everybody comes back with, every parent is not perfect, that is absolutely true. If each parent would just give 5% of their time to their children, the world would have been a much nicer place today.
EMMA admitted to BULLYING... Bullying the shooter
ITS EMMAS fault
EMMA drove Nick to do this....
HOW ABOUT A SORRY
i think weather one is bullied is subjective- you cant know how someone made another feel.....
Shelby congrats on getting into your school choice-and I hope you continue to get the help needed -you are young but obviously determined to succeed -
However I totally disagree that Emma will go down in history as anything other than her 15 minutes of fame that was stretched to 30 minutes by screaming and lecturing Americans guns.
I am from Connecticut ( you should know what that means)- We know first hand that it was a mentally ill young man who did the killings
I would have more respect for Emma and her posse if they organized a massive march around MENTAL ILLNESS -yes you can say it was brought up, but be honest this is POLITICAL.
This is not about you or David or Emma- This is about AGENDA- And you think you have all the answers in these kids... wrong
keep in mind where I said I am from now - Yesterday on our local news I heard the state is closing yet another one of our "hospitals for troubled, mentally ill boys.. we have a Democrat for our Governor -
Republican= blame mental illness- address that
Democrats=blame guns get- rid of guns
Shelby please just focus on yourself do not hero worship these kids and research things that I just mentioned
He is a souless duche
Mary Jane Blahnik douche*
hogg wasnt at the school till after the event
An Acquaintaince from many many years ago took me to a Ted Nugent Concert. I walked out. 30 years later, i am leaving again. Just can't take the sounds that come out of him.
John Brown
As a gun owner and have been for over 30 years I believe it is time to update the right to bare Arms at any age even mine (65).
When I hit 65 I turned in my Hand Gun Yes I kept my .22 Rifle why because its to big to Hide but it still give me a sense of Defense.
But times have changed and so must the Right to own a Weapon of any type!
*Does anybody here remember what Nugent did to dodge the Vietnam Draft?*
Classic case of Projection.
Emma Gonzales bullied the shooter by the way
It's fascinating that we watch movies to vicariously glory in characters who are bold, outspoken, and push back against crushing bureaucracy. But when they appear in real life we try to destroy them. Hmmm........
Commentators keep forgetting to including the fact that these children are also traumatized from a recent mass shooting. Not just attacking children, but fresh trauma victims.
Melissa Miller if they wanna take their grief and tragedy to the air waves, then they need to be big enough to realize not everyone will agree with what they’re saying. And that’s ok. We all have opinions. We all have the freedom to say what we want. U don’t just get to live in ur safe space bubble.
There is not agreeing and being a low life piece of shit that attacks them personally.
Big difference.
Captain Crunch oh I see. So when they say anyone in the NRA are horrible child murderers with blood on their hands, that’s ok? They start to attack the individuals. Not the thing they seem so worried about. You have no choice but to deal with it when the other side attacks back.
Amy Smallwood idiot
I don't support them saying that but the NRA seems to have strayed from it's original goals.
The NRA's mission statement, summarized from its bylaws, is: "To protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, especially with reference to the inalienable right of the individual American citizen guaranteed by such Constitution to acquire, possess, collect, exhibit, transport, carry, transfer ownership of..........
Seems almost like a religion..
Silly kids. You can't have an opinion unless it's one I agree with, geez. I think that's what Ted Nugent ment.
Blox117 so all kids are stupid and share the same opinion? I may not share the same opinions as this kid but I wont call him stupid for having an opinion. Grow up and please never have kids. I don't understand why you get triggered by teenage kids. He's a teenager and he will likely change his opinions as he grows older.
LOL i think i can have my own opinion, considering im not much older than they are. unless you are saying you are a hypocrite and only support their side?
Blox117 is it an opinion you have or hate? sounds like hate because they don't share your views. I never said i agreed with them. I love my guns and I'm not willing to give them up. however im not opposed to listening to what the other side has to say. if their is a way to help reduce the number of kids being killed in schools I'm willing to listen. these kids deserve us at least trying to figure out a way to reduce these shootings. maybe it's not gun laws that need to change maybe it starts at home or in school or maybe some laws can be passed or changed. at least these kids are trying towards something. the media loves this left vs right nonsense because their viewers are eating it up.
My left ear enjoyed the shit out of this
This whole debate is about your freedom and personal liberties. The only thing new laws will create is new criminals. New York and Connecticut passed gun registration laws after Sandyhook, less than 10% of gun owners complied. Local law enforcement also rejected the new law and refused to confiscate guns from licensed gun owners.
Ted "poopy pants" Nugent is way past his 15 minutes.
Comrade Grant E, We speak English on this site. You should too.
Grant E 😂😂😂😂
Blox, spend a minute and educate yourself on how Ted got out of the draft. It's not hard. I have faith you can do it.
Grant, English please.
Poopy pants??? Do you have a screw loose somewhere? Has your left-wing radical BS finally set into your brain and has corrupted what few brain cells you had left? I'm beginning to think that all of you left-wing liberal idiots should be put in front of a firing squad. You will never take away our 2nd Amendment and be damned if you ever take away any of my guns. And by the way you couldn't hold a candle to Ted Nugent
so we can’t criticize their aruguments bc they’re children?
So it was ok for these kids to bully Cruz because he is different then they are. They admit to the bullying and can't live with the reaction of their actions so they want to punish everyo e who owns a gu . I call b's on that. If they want to talk with the adults then join the real world where not everyone gets a Trophy. That real life.
no, its because all their friends got shot. dumbass
Then criticize THEIR ARGUMENTS instead of personally attacking someone...
Sheesh....kindergartentactics...
What's next??? "He started it" "No, he started it"???
"But he said this and that"?
SURE YOU CAN. YOU'RE JUST WRONG!
CNN where is the coverage on the 2nd Amendment Rally held Wednesday by the students in Colorado? Balanced journalism is what we the people need to hear.
The bald guy on the right would really look like George Castanza from Seinfeld.
Why should we care what poopy pants saying?
Ted brings up souls?
Souls are connected to the Divine. Guns are the antithesis of the Divine and Jesus' message.
Does Ted really sincerely believe that Jesus would approve of the use of weapons?
The Book of Revelations talks about how Jesus will return with fire and a sword and an army.
So I wouldnt say that Jesus is a total Hippie anti weapon sort of guy.
I'm agnostic btw, just to get that out of the way before I get engaged with silly pointless religious arguments.
Gaming,
I am a full-time Religious Education teacher at a grade school.
Do you understand that the Book of Revelations nearly did not make it into the canon due to its figurative language that even the early Chruch Fathers argued over?
I always find it frustrating when the far right religious cherry pick from the OT in order to justify their oppositionfor example to homosexuality (notice there is no mention of condemning lesbians). Or when they cherry pick references to Jesus and swords during the Olivet Discourse. Which again they completely miss the meaning of Pentecost and the birth of Christianity being a difficult road. Then they miss the meaning of the event when Peter attacks the Roman soldier with his knife....wait....wasn't Peter trying to defend Jesus? Maybe if he had AR-15 things would have been different?
The Greek word "machaira" is knife or sword is mentioned in the Olivet Discourse. The machaira is used to the preparation of food, cutting wood for fuel, and possibly to fend off robbers for which the area was noted. Jesus was preparing the disciples for the long road ahead of them once he was gone. He told them that they would spread out, suffer and experience pain. And yet, he commanded them to SERVE.
You also missed the deliberate actions of Jesus. Jesus set up the events of Holy Week as a series of reasons for his arrest. He was pushing for his end. For example; Holy Tuesday in the Temple, the 8 Woes was a deliberate means to finally get the (rivals) Sadducees, Pharisees and scribes to unite against Jesus.
At the Garden of Gethsemane, the presence of the swords were necessary tools to set up Jesus' confrontation with the Roman soldiers in the Garden of Gethsemane. He set the stage. He made it look like he was in rebellion - rebellion against the Roman Power. It was the fear of rebellion that finally sealed Jesus' fate. Pilate had to sentence Jesus in order to protect Rome.
Matthew 26:55-56: At that time Jesus said to the crowd, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come out with swords and clubs to capture me? Every day I sat in the temple courts teaching, and you did not arrest me. But this has all taken place that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled.”
People need protection? What is greater protection there but GOD? Jesus wanted his disciples to trust on the protection of the Shepherd, the who would provide all their needs - the amour of God.
Finally, the most important quote:
Matthew 26:52: “Put your sword back in its place… for all who take the sword will die by the sword.”
I rather take the words of Jesus over John who was old and fearful due to the numerous attacks by the Pharisees against the young Christian Church.
KB Peters do you read the king james version.?
That is my go-to version.
And yet, the NT was written in Greek. I doubt the International Children's Bible could do a better job.
What is your point?
What happened to these kids is horrible and should’ve never happened. However when watching the news coverage and interviews with these students it should definitely be noted that they bullied the shooter to that point. They are on video stating that they all knew he was weird and that nobody liked him. The way that we can prevent these issues in the future is to help these people not ridicule them. If you don’t then you may create a monster.
Wait so if a bunch a high school students get involved in politics, we can’t debate them?
Liars? Soulless? Nugent needs to get a pair instead of trying to be a bully.
Nugent should be locked up with the key thrown away
Michael you are stupid, week minded, DEMOCRAT . Without guns their is no rights.
So basically teens have all the power because we have to listen to what they say without any criticism?
Just because you were involved in a tragedy doesn’t make you a public policy expert.
Sniveling Ted
I'd boycott Ted Nugent, but I haven't bought and wouldn't buy any of his music.
And what of those that survived the Las Vegas massacre?
how does CNN not know how to do audio lmao. my left ear is loving this vid
These kids want to change the second amendment, The right to bare arms, How about we change the first amendment, The right to free speech??
Ted who???
Why should we give the Parkland students a 'hall pass' on their recent trauma and age, yet listen to what they have to say on subjects other than general trauma? Shouldn't we, by this very logic, wait till they've had a chance to straighten out the trauma, and maybe even grow up before their voices have technical merit on the subjects they are talking about? And, isn't that what the right seems to be trying to say (poorly?)
I would say being shot at is merit in itself. That is something I would not want to wish on on my own worst enemy let alone kids.
Like one of the students stated they are high school students that is bulling central. Mess and trash from these so call adults is laughable.
Well didn’t the girl admit they bullied the shooter? Because he “deserved it”. Real caring and progressive. School bullying over someone being different. Hmm, amazing how that goes unmentioned...
Well then you deserved what you got then.
They care so much about school shooting so why are you messing with the crazy kid? That’s one Prevention 101, one of the common traits for school shooters right? Common sense these oh so smart kids seem to lack. Yet we should take legal advice from them?
Then after messing with the kid for years they cry about him retaliating? Then to “prevent” (or just keep the body count down ie so I can live while there die) they want to restrict rights.
How about you do what you preach and treat each other decently. If you can’t control yourself you have no business telling others how to live their life.
It is very telling that this side of it is never mentioned in the media.
It's like the right to be a dick trumps all in school.
Don't take away our rights to bully!!
such ignorance and lack of compassion
Patrick Pepin your brainwashed
Patrick Pepin yet a whiny bitch there yer compassion

Fuck off. Just because some of them are in high school doesn't mean they can't be critisized.... especially that 50-pound shill Mark Hogg punk.
good plan lol
really how so
So let me get this straight... these activist high school kids can say whatever they want, but no one is allowed to say anything back? Fuck that.
Keep up the good work Ted! The NRA just got one new member!
Two chord Ted, has always needed a colostomy bag for his head.
colostomy bag for his mouth! Full of shit like trump....what a bunch of nasty, ugly people trump has brought out from under rocks!
Total T 😆
Total T nice rhyme.
you have no clue as to how many people ted and his people have helped ...SMH ...sad to the core !
+THEQUESTIONPLEASE Yeah Ted Nugent is SUCH a great person he makes songs about 13 year old CHILDREN being jailbait. Shut up. He's helped NO ONE except for himself.
I hope laura's vacation is longer. David Hogg is a much better person than her🌟
K Jackson thank you for the laugh. I needed it.
The March for Our Lives protesters make a good point. By their own admission, 18-20 yr olds are not mature enough to own a gun. They " don't understand the long term consequences of their actions." But, 18-20 yr olds can decide the future of America by voting ? Any bills to raise the age of firearms purchase to 21 should raise the voting age to 21 as well. It is only reasonable to link the two together. The protesters make an excellent point on that issue. Thank you, kids for bringing the facts to light.
So an adult cannot "attack" or criticize a teen that put themselves in a position speaking publicly on national news outlets demanding changes in law. But it's ok for that same teen to make gross statements and attack adults personally with impunity?? Come the fuck on!
What kind of person would view Ted Nugent as a serious voice of leadership?
Randy H Trump and most of his supporters.
And who would you recommend?
Someone with an academic background for starters
Randy H see how they instantly start with the name calling a bigoted remarks? These are the Trump people!!!!
Randy H
A party that is desperate for a celebrity voice turns to Nugent and Rosanne bar.
Lol ted nugent? He has no room to question anybody's intelligence or honesty.
If this guy is a "Parkland Survivor" then so are we. We are also Civil War survivors.
How is it that the same people who ate ass and tide pods in January are all of a sudden gun experts in February?
