"or all we know, a majority of the kids who died might have disagreed with the anti-gun control message that’s being pushed and the 15 minutes of fame some of their classmates are using their corpses to achieve. Setting aside their grotesque exploitation of the deaths of their fellow students for their own personal gain, why should anyone pay attention to the Parkland kids when they’re saying things like this?

“They're pathetic f*ckers that want to keep killing our children," said Hogg, referring to the NRA. "They could have blood from children splattered all over their faces and they wouldn't take action, because they all still see those dollar signs."

…"It just makes me think what sick f*ckers are out there that want to continue to sell more guns, murder more children, and honestly just get reelected," Hogg said. "What type of person are you when you want to see more f*cking money than children's lives? What type of sh*tty person does that?"
