Bataclan rocker accuses protesting Florida teens of treason

Bizarre rant...

@Tumbledry

Its only bizarre if you haven't been paying attention.

American right-wingers believe the following about free speech: You have the right to agree with me. If you disagree, you have the right to shut up.

@blackS I agree with you. I think the white nationalists and other bigot's messages are repulsive, but still think they have the right to free speech. As long as they're willing to accept the potential consequences of what they say.

"As the survivor of a mass shooting I can tell you from first-hand experience that all of you protesting and taking days off from school insult the memory of those who were killed and abuse and insult me and every other lover of liberty by your every action"

I'm pretty that no one else who survived the Bataclan shooting would agree with that.

I even think french people hearing that would just burst into laughter.

Nutjob.

Well this guy has just ensured that his band will find it very difficult to find work in the future

I wonder is his rant a symptom of PTSD?

Doesn't excuse his appalling comments, though.

Insane in the brain!

If the kids are to continue being powerful, influential spokespersons, they'll have to deal with the backlash of right wing propaganda designed to combat any form of gun control. Lies, personal attacks, fake pictures and stories, conspiracy theories. They might at some point face physical harm as well. But that is true of all great protest movements that eventually lead to change. And who are the right-wing propagandists convincing? Only like-minded people. Not the masses who support the kids, and not the kids themselves--whose sheer numbers, about to become voters, will carry the day. Hang in there, kids! Truth, compassion, and other American values are pulling for you!
