Cameron Kasky is a survivor of the Parkland Shooting earlier this year in Broward County, Florida and unlike David Hogg, over time it appears that he’s figured out that demanding we take guns from innocent people alone won’t stop gun violence.
Credit where it’s due, and while Cameron is an admitted liberal, his ability and willingness to have real discussions about gun control in this country have really matured.
Sadly, his counterparts haven’t figured this out just yet, as evident in this tweet:
A peer of mine just called me “alt-right” for listening to an episode of Joe Rogan’s show.
Good take. Makes sense.

By the way, I was listening to it because he was talking to a democratic socialist that I like. But you guys don’t care about that. Easier to just call people evil.

Sorry Cameron, that’s the Left.
Are you saying that leftists don't like having alternate viewpoints available for discussion?? That's unexpected…

I'm in the same boat for questioning Avenatti. Too many people get cultish when it comes to politics. I just want the truth.

I got called alt right for not being progressive on Palestine when the crowd was chanting….during a Proud Boys Counter Protest lmao
You can be 99% with people, even arm to arm in support, but if they don't like one opinion or in your case open-mindedness to others, ur bad!

Ahem, the Left. Yup.
The far-left loves to throw Jewish people into the alt-right at their first divergence from doctrine, even if the belief they hold was mainstream liberal thought five years ago.

Joe Rogan? Oooookay. I've only watched a few of his eps but I didn't see/hear anything that should require a fainting couch.

Sad. How about 'Nah.. i'm just an All American kid trying to here opinions from all sides & form my own thoughts.'

There ya’ go.
Hang in there, Cameron.
