Meet Kyle Kashuv, a 16-year-old student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas H.S. in Parkland, Fla.
Unlike some of his fellow students who we’ve been telling you about who have given the Broward Sheriff’s Office a pass for its handling of the shooting on Valentine’s Day, young Kyle has a very different opinion of how officials handled it:

That pretty much nails it:

Kyle was on Fox News earlier today where he called out Sheriff Scott Israel for “virtue-signaling against the @NRA and against guns when he didn’t even act properly”:

Again, nailed it.
Kyle, who lists himself as a 2nd Amendment supporter in his bio, has many friends who are gun supporters, but they think laws should be changed in Florida:
After Parkland, underneath survivors' emotions, it appears gun values still remain. "A lot are still gun supporters but they realize something has to be done," 16-year-old Kyle Kashuv said when I asked him if his friends have changed their minds on gun control laws as he has. pic.twitter.com/ypRc0aT1ot

It’s an honest view:
Kashuv says of his own inner conflict: My previous opinion was everyone under the Constitution should be able to have their own gun — "It represents a national ideal." But currently I've seen that we have to have some restrictions on people who are not mentally stable pic.twitter.com/NN5GBLJLnP

Now, with that said, why isn’t Twitter verifying this very legitimate voice in the discussion?
Listen to this Parkland survivor @KyleKashuv. He should be verified Twitter. https://t.co/5s3vQo0PZg

He seems like a perfect fit to bring the right and left together:
Protecting Lives MUST be a bipartisan effort. #NeverAgain

The media lives for this:
I cannot thank @Book4Senate enough for her amazing work. Authentic. Hardworking. Although our opinions differ on certain issues, she's a democrat I truly admire. Godspeed pic.twitter.com/TlryRVxxjA
