    Here is something to wonder about, how do these kids end up where the "action" is? Real of fake?

    My earlier post is starting to look more real than I first gave it credit for.

    An aide to a Florida House lawmaker was fired Tuesday after he said that Parkland students who were speaking out on gun control after Wednesday’s mass shooting were paid actors.
    Benjamin Kelly, the aide to Republican Rep. Shawn Harrison, emailed Tampa Bay Times reporter Alex Leary to claim that two Marjory Stoneman Douglas students who appeared on CNN weren’t actually survivors of the attack.


    "Both kids in the picture are not students here but actors that travel to various crisis when they happen,” Kelly reportedly emailed the newspaper. When the Tampa Bay reporter asked for proof, the House aide sent a follow-up email claiming the same student who appeared on CNN, David Hogg, was in another state hundreds of miles away.
    "There is a clip on you tube that shows Mr. Hogg out in California. (I guess he transferred?)" Kelly's email reportedly stated.

If so he will also have to pay for his own lawyer. That means he did not have plenty of cash to buy the high dollar guns, actually on a dollar general salary Im surprised he could even afford ammo, let alone the actual gun.

    The alleged gunman who police say murdered 17 people during a shooting rampage at a Florida high school last week is reportedly set to receive a massive inheritance from his late mother.
    Nikolas Cruz, 19, and his brother are expected to inherit nearly $800,000 from their late mother’s insurance’s policy, WSVN reported Tuesday.


    The Broward County Sheriff’s Office filed a motion asking the court to determine whether Cruz is indigent and eligible for a taxpayer-funded defense.
    If the court concludes Cruz can pay for his own legal defense, he’ll have to hire a private attorney.


    On Thursday, the day after Cruz’s arrest, the woman who took in his brother petitioned a court to be named the personal representative of Lynda Cruz’s estate. The request is pending.


    Cruz’s brother, Zachary, who will turn 18 on Wednesday, has been committed to a mental health facility, according to the Palm Beach Post.
    Lynda Cruz died of pneumonia on Nov. 1. The Sun Sentinel reported she died without a will.

    ACtually both of them should have been in the mental facility and those poor kids and their families would still be together.

    An aide to a Florida legislator was fired Tuesday after claiming two survivors of a Florida high school shooting who spoke to CNN were not students, but instead "actors that travel to various crisis when they happen."

    Benjamin Kelly, an aide to state Rep. Shawn Harrison, R-Tampa, reportedly sent an email to the Tampa Bay Times' Washington Bureau Chief Alex Leary about the appearance of two Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students, Emma Gonzalez and David Hogg, on CNN. The students are survivors of a mass shooting at the Parkland, Florida, school Wednesday that left 17 people dead and dozens of others wounded after a 19-year-old walked into the school and opened fire.

    In their interview, Gonzalez and Hogg called for disbanding the NRA, and for stricter gun control laws.


    "The fact that you were in power for so long, that you had so much influence for so long in America just goes to show how much time and effort we still need to spend on fixing our country," Gonzalez said of the NRA. "And gun control is just the first thing right now."

    In his email to the Tampa Bay Times, Kelly said, "Both kids [in the interview] are not students here but actors that travel to various crisis when they happen," according to the newspaper.

    When the Tampa Bay Times asked Kelly to support his claim, he sent a link to a YouTube conspiracy video about Hogg.

    "There is a clip on you tube that shows Mr. Hogg out in California. (I guess he transferred?)," Kelly said in the email, according to the Tampa Bay Times.



    An article published in the Coral Springs Talk on Feb. 8, six days before the shootings, names Hogg as a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas and features a documentary he made about astronomy students' efforts to launch a weather balloon and an attached craft into space. Gonzalez is featured in the video as the project's tracking team leader.

    After receiving the link to the video, The Tampa Bay Times then reached out to Harrison, who said, "If my aide disparaged a student from Parkland who is grieving than I will deal most strongly with my aide. . . . Clearly it was inappropriate for him to send that."

    On Tuesday afternoon, Harrison tweeted that Kelly was put on leave. Less than two hours later, he said in a tweet that Kelly had been fired, and apologized to grieving families for any pain Kelly's actions caused.

    Richard Corcoran, the Speaker of the Florida house who fired Kelly, said in a tweet he was "shocked and angry" after reading the email.

    Kelly also took to Twitter Wednesday, and said after his firing that he had made a mistake.

    He later tweeted, "And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

    David Hogg is both a student in Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and was featured in a viral video taken on a California beach a few weeks ago. His mother has close connection with CNN News and his father is an ex-FBI agent.

    And how many are going to do research Joe about the kid. He was there and enrolled in the school.

    Now how many are going to retract their original statement(s) about the kid. Surely not Don Trump Jr.

    These kids have a right to be scared and worried, they do not deserve to be used as political pawns.

    One...one...legislative aide for a Georgia state rep made the statement about hired actors, Fred, and he was promptly sacked. Not exactly a flood of disinformation. I have no idea what Trump junior did or said to get in this discussion. Do you?

    Listening to these kids giving their speeches in front of cameras I get a weird sense that this is a political hit job. These poor kids have been brainwashed as I have heard them protesting against the NRA mostly. One girl was so misinformed that she said it was horrible that a teenage boy could walk into a store and lay down 130 bucks and walk out with an AR-15.

    Most of them have come out against the NRA, do this bunch of kids realize it was not the NRA that shot up their school? pitiful brainwashing and political pawns is all they are.

    The president's son, Donald Trump Jr., liked two tweets disseminating conspiracy theories about Hogg. One tweet linked to a story in Gateway Pundit that accused Hogg's father of coaching his son in peddling "anti-Trump rhetoric and anti-gun legislation," claiming the FBI is using Hogg as its pawn.

    The other tweet linked to a story in True Pundit that described Hogg as "the kid who has been running his mouth" about President Trump and Republicans. "If Hogg knew the shooter would snap - as he and other students have professed - perhaps he could have told his father about it," the story charged.

    Thanks Ben, I was going to post a link but got busy and just got time to do it. A lot of Aussies still think that was a false flag deal by the government in order to ban the guns. It was this conspiracy slant to the story I was referring to.
    I thought it interesting that most of his shots were pretty precise, head,neck,chest.
    Thanks again Ben.
