Pro-Gun Parkland Student Dings Obama Essay: 'Seems Asinine and un-American'
Kyle Kashuv, a pro-Second Amendment student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, roasted former President Obama on Twitter Thursday for writing an essay praising only the school's pro-gun control student activists for Time magazine.
Seventeen people were killed and seventeen more were wounded at the Parkland, Florida, school on February 14, making it one of the deadliest school massacres ever.
On Thursday, Time released its list of the 100 most influential people. It included some Parkland survivors -- but only pro-gun control survivors: Cameron Kasky, Jaclyn Corin, David Hogg, Emma Gonzalez, and Alex Wind.
While the teenage activists have certainly become fixtures on certain liberal news networks, it's not yet clear how influential they've been in the gun debate.
Public support for stricter gun control laws surged in the wake of the shooting, but a recent Quinnipiac University poll showed support decreasing significantly.
Nonetheless, Obama wrote a gushy tribute praising the student gun-grabbers and crediting them with "shaking us out of our complacency" with their activism.
"The Parkland, Fla., students don’t have the kind of lobbyists or big budgets for attack ads that their opponents do," Obama wrote disingenuously.
