Gotta go jump into Friday show. Curious to hear your thoughts on today's show. If you were a student that participated in yesterday's protests, let me know how it went. Wanna skip around? Here ya go... National Student Protests: (00:06), Ninja Smashes Streaming Record: (4:01), Rihanna Reacts to Snapchat Ad: (5:14), Russia Spy Scandal Update: (8:31)
My school forced us to Sit In the auditorium instead of walking out. Our school safety officers were blocking the doors, but us students still went into the auditorium and stayed silent for 17 minutes. A few of us have written letters to Congress in a push for laws focusing on not just guns but mental health. It felt good that kids my age finally stood up for something, and I'm proud of everybody who stood up for what they believed in, and I hope this keeps the discussion going. #NeverAgain
Our school gave us signs saying “I walk because...” and gave us designated points to walk to so we could have 17 minutes of silence for the victims. We were allowed to write whatever we wanted on the signs and we wouldn’t get in trouble for it. Everybody stood in silence, nobody fought, and although a lot of us had different opinions and completely different signs, we all stood in unity for those 17 minutes in a blizzard. One person wrote “I walk for gun control” on their sign, and the person next to them wrote “I walk for the second amendment” on their sign. Despite our conflicting opinions, there were no fights, just unity
John Walter, there has been plenty of time for memorials, plenty of time to pay respects. Political activism is more appropriate in school than a gun/knife/drugs, but hey.
Kate Butler Political activism is inappropriate in school because parents of all views pay taxes supporting schools and send their kids to schools, therefore schools should push views. Schools educate, not indoctrinate.
it's an improvement, but some people are still going to see it as a prioritization of the 'correct' victims: women, children, then men. However, she does it in any other order, and she'd likely get more pushback (kinda damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario). She's taken the time to put her thoughts in order and it's a careful response.
I don't dislike Rhianna, but I haven't been given much of a reason to like her either. Then I saw that she included men in her list of DV victims. She gets a brownie point. Thank you for recognizing that it's not just women and children that get abused.
Gotta be honest, if I was in high school still, I probably wouldn't have planned on walking out with everyone because I think the issue of gun control is really complicated, and I don't want to come across as making a stand that I am not (if that makes any sense). But FUCK dude, if my school locked the gates, called an assembly, scheduled a drill, threatened suspension? I would ABSOLUTELY walk out, just because they DIDN'T want me to, just because they were trying to sensor these students that are, whether you believe they should be or not, ARE scared for their lives. FUCK american education.
i will agree with you on locking the gates and such, but thats just because that seems like a safety issue to me. fact of the matter is though, the students don't have a right to walk out, if they had a right to leave whenever they want, then tardiness and unexcused absences wouldn't be punishable. additionally, what is the point of a walkout if the school allows you to do it. the whole point of a walkout is that its meant to be disruptive. if the people you're 'disrupting' have planned for that disruption, then its an empty gesture. furthermore, about walkouts specifically. The reason walk-outs are a type of protest, is because you're essentially saying 'i believe in this so much that i am willing to be punished in order to have my voice on the matter be heard. if there's no threat of punishment, again the gesture is empty. TL:DR if there's no opposition to your method of protest, your protest is empty.
sillyking1991 they actually do have every right to walk out of school. No teachers or administration can physically stop them until they actually break a law. They can be punished afterwards of course, but they cannot be detained. Also, it’s called civil disobedience, learn what that means
if they are allowed to be punished afterward....then its not a right. its still against the rules. I haven't said that students SHOULDN'T walk out. I am simply pointing out that this walk out is in no way reflective of 'politicaly aware' students.
sillyking1991 That's not really how rights work. I mean, free speech is a right, but your job can still fire you for what you said. Doesn't stop it from being a right. In this case, they can't be physically stopped, but can be punished for their actions.
Wish that it was mentioned that not only the russian double agent and his daughter were hospitalized, but 21 people in total were affected, including a first responding officer. This is straight up terrorism.
I'm pretty sure Phil mentioned those 21 people in another video where he first talked about the story, I can't remember which video that is, but it is pretty disturbing.
Who is responsible? Terrorism towards who? proof? How would the party responsible for the attack benefit from said terror/assasination? Especially in the way it has been done, Its like killing somebody cant be done more efficiently. Looks like it was done to provoke attention.. . . . There is something very wrong with this incident. All im hearing are allegations from state officials.
Cin3 If putin was a part of this i think it was to tell the other parties at russia that he is not weak? Just a theory made i thought in my mind at 01.33am
Daezeth Do you really think that using a chemical weapon that is forbidden by the Geneva Conventions to kill one irrelevant ex-spy wil put putin in a good light in russia. Do you really think the other parties in russia / russians like to be viewed as transgressors of international law that could potentially jeopardize the economy. thats dumb
Cin3 Russia is responsible, there's no doubt. Russia used a Russian Military Grade nerve agent against a defector. Why? To send a message to any other possible russian agents: If they defect, they will die. It doesn't matter whether they go, no country can protect them. That's why Putin used an exclusively Russian nerve agent. Honestly if you look into Russian assassinations over the past 10 years against people who are against Putin you'll find a bunch, though normally they happen either in Russia, or Eastern Europeen countries. This attack stands out because it's on British soil. If this had been in Ukraine, you wouldn't have heard any western nations talk about it; but seeing as it's on British soil that's what's caused thsi outrage: Russia believes they can assassinate anyone they want, wherever they want. If you look at the Russian state media, and some comments made by Putin over the past few days, you'll see that he they don't make any attempt to hide the murder. One clip that really stands out is a bit on Russia media, a man announces the attack saying "A traitor to our country was victim of a nerve agent attack in the UK. Let this serve as a warning to all traitors ect..." can't remember the exact quote, but it was something like that. "Daezeth Do you really think that using a chemical weapon that is forbidden by the Geneva Conventions to kill one irrelevant ex-spy wil put putin in a good light in russia. Do you really think the other parties in russia / russians like to be viewed as transgressors of international law that could potentially jeopardize the economy." Honestly I believe that Russia his going to victimize itself to it's people saying "They blame us for everything, we had nothing to do with it. This is further proof the West is iur ennemy." I do believe Putin would do this, he does it to all of his political opponents, and this wasn't about killing some irrelevant spy. This was about sending a message to all those who have thoughts of defecting: We will kill you, no matter where you go.
that question doesnt need an answer, look at the subreddits people meme about with deaths and depression memes are forever they say cockroaches are the only things that will survive nuclear war butwhat they dont say is that the mutated cockroaches will take our place creating memes. Memes are just as inevitable as death and entropy.
Yeap. We'll meme till the nukes knock out the internet for good. And then i'll find a cliff to jump off or find a near by mushroom cloud cause life without internet .... nope. Not doing it.
My school held a rally for 17 minutes instead of a walk out which I was kind of okay with. Afterwards in class, we discussed the schools policies on lockdowns. I asked my teacher what we were supposed to do if we saw the shooter or happened to meet them and she said that “the school doesn’t teach us about that. I tried asking the principal but he said he had no idea” I just really think that students and teacher should be given more information for different scenarios to help if there was another tragedy.
if you didnt realize by now lefty school system knows only how to feel and dont have any ideas on how to stop this kind of tragedies and democrats use them to take down second amendment
When I was in school there was a threat that a bomb was inside the school. We were then LOCKED inside the school so we couldn't leave.... Thank god guns r banned in Canada LOL. Imagine. "Oh no a shooter!! Run towards him"
Not true. Seems like this generation doesn't feel for anyone anymore. People literally record people dieing now. Texting and driving, zero regard for other people and it's getting worse and worse every single day we continue without any accountability. We are so detatched from eachother meanwhile being more conntected than ever.
Sadly, if you come across a shooter in a hallway, and there is no chance of getting away, you fight. You do what you can to try and invompacitate them to try and protect others. It is either fight or flight. If you can't run, you might as well fight. I'd personally rather die knowing I tried. Maybe I gave someone around the corner or down the hall the chance to get into a classroom.
That girl should be investigated by the FBI because it seems Apple doesn’t fall from the tree and her actions seem to shadow her brothers and they should prevent another tragic loss of life her brother remorselessly killed 9 people because they were black by her words and actions it’s safe to say she would to also someone look into the parents because those kids definitely didn’t raise them selves
Corsair Chip No one cares about her bigotry. The issue lies where she stated that she hopes for everyone to get shot. If that’s not disturbing to you, you might have issues buddy. I’m an avid gun owner, and I would never say something even remotely moronic as what she did. I don’t think her “weapons” were any big deal, but her words and thoughts are very alarming; even more so due to her mental state from getting an avalanche of death threats and hate messages sent to her every day since her brother’s shooting. You seem to be posting a lot of comments focusing on bigotry. She’s not being targeted for her “racist” statement. No one gives a fuck about that. Again, she’s being targeted because she stated that she hoped all the students would get shot. Try to carve that into your brain, and stop whining in the comment section. America is the land of the brave and free, not the land of the whiney bitches.
I am seriously just pissed off I cannot delete my snapchat account which I only made to enter into a giveaway and now they are giving more reasons that I want to but cannot.
As an Irish person when you said IRA I thought you meant the Irish Republican Army and my first thought was 'what do those feckers have to do with it?' XD
There's been a bonus assasination thrown inthere too. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/03/13/russian-businessman-close-associate-ofboris-berezovsky-found/ This guy was on a list of 3. All of whom are dead now.
It's like a James Bond film except instead of Russia always being one step ahead, they're one step behind and everyone else is calling them out for being so unbelievably stupid
The ORIGINAL idea for the walkout was pretty cool. Shame it was ruined by people using kids as puppets for their political agenda and students themselves walking out just for fun and destroying property while out there. This is why we can't have good things... Honestly I think a candlelit vigil would be more appropriate. If you've ever been to one, you know how beautiful, touching and respectful they are.
You always see people crying when far-righters are punished on college campuses; these same crying hypocrites are tellingly silent or even celebratory when anti-trumpers are censored.
COAKY most American schools outside of colleges do not allow protests on school property. I'm not against protests but do it during school hours across the street or as close to the school as you can without being on their property and the school will not be able to a thing.
There can be a defense of censored speech because it is packed in with hate speech, in which case it is offensive to the majority of listeners. But that doesn't excuse individuals abusing this ambiguity, so long as the environment is organised and out of control. Like clearly that one chick with the gun was spitting hate speech, but I understand that Right and Left Liberals get too radical in these matters and don't understand the difference. You should at least listen to the opposing side. Learn what you should not be, understand their thinking, and have a conversation if permissible. Being uneducated or cutting the tongue of an opinion we do not approve of, this benefits no side. Ever.
Courtney Weatherman When do 'anti-trumpers' get censored? When you're not allowed to just get up and leave school during the middle of the day? That's not censoring free speech lmfao
my school didnt let us do the walkout bc we had a delay and there "wasn't time in the schedule" so the principal went outside and yelled at all the students peacefully protesting (one teacher was even pulling students back inside). they said they were rescheduling it to next week so the students had to go back inside...you can't reschedule a nationwide protest
Morgan Freeman I've lived in Louisiana for ten years and have been in Alabama for nearly ten as well. The city is supposed to sound an alarm once a tornado is sighted but in terms of a warning from mother nature? No...if you yourself aren't paying attention, damn straight that shit can just drop down. A few of the biggest signs are a greenish-yellow sky (I remember being forcefully woken up one Sunday morning when I was about 12 and herded into the windowless bathroom with my siblings because the sky was that shade. I believe a tornado did hit...just not our city) and of course, swirling clouds. There may be hail and heavy rain but not always. And people say it sounds like a train; I can't confirm that. However, it will rattle things even before descending. My mom yanked me out of school one day (a school completely lined with windows and where many of our classes were trailers disconnected from the main building) because a tornado passed overhead. She was at Walmart with my younger sibling and it caused the lights to go out. So! Is it worth practicing a tornado drill? Absolutely. Not all tornados appear the same way so you might not have time to get a warning from the city.
I wonder whos losing out on a more valuable thing. Us because some kid wasn't standing outside making me more aware of how evil people who like guns are? Or us because we need to find a new engieering teacher and another person whos supposed to be an engineering teacher needs to find a new job?
Curio (that and there is already a qualified teacher that came back and, as far as we know, will officially start the job after spring break so again, its all good ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
I'm a Uk resident and I'm deeply disturbed by the events that have unfolded. The fact that 30 odd people were seen in hospitals and troops were deployed to the restaurant where they ate to remove items is shocking. If this was an attack by Russia then that is exactly what it is, an attack. However, I'm also concerned as to why the government did not hand over a sample to the Russians from the porton down facility or hand over samples to the un security council for unbiased analysis. I believe that the situation has been drastically escalated by the breakdown of communication by both sides. But Russia has some serious explaining to do. My family could have been eating in that resteraunt, it has seriously undermined our national security and the right to feel safe.
If you hand anything over to the Russians they will test it and deny that its novichok and probably say its a nerve agent made in the UK. I think more serious measures need to be taken than just what she has put forward so far. I don't think there strong enough after a chemical weapon attack
I agree, the sanctions placed on russia werent anything too serious, however, the chemical is going to be handed over to the chemical weapons committee soon and then they will confirm it and i feel as though we will have a stronger response after that
I think Russia is partly justified in asking for an independent investigation per international law. I’d like to see multiple sources identifying this agent before the agent becomes the central cause of major global conflict. If we take further action I want it to be justified conclusively . Especially when actions like this can and have caused wars
I simply think that it is prudent for us to be objective in matters that could lead to global conflict. Russia has a lot to be scared and upset about, we have made many mistakes in international diplomacy by not entirely understanding Russia position and adequately responding to it. This isn’t to say they’re right, this isn’t to say that if Russia commutes these acts that it isn’t an absolutely unacceptable violation of sovereignty (something we aren’t exactly innocent of). But if we as the United States seek to uphold our values of civil freedom, fair justice and democratic process, we must act on these values internationally as well as domestically.
I don't think that only giving it to Russia for examination is a good idea. They could very easily just say "No, this isn't our neurotoxin." Even if it was. The Russian propaganda machine is strong, and I've no doubt that they would manipulate results or otherwise falsely report them in order to save face on a global scale. If you hand it off to a number of different countries for analysis, and only Russia is saying it's not their poison... there's a pretty good chance that it's their poison.
JaMaAuWright I don’t doubt that at all that Russia would manipulate or flat out lie about the results. I wouldn’t expect honest results. They’d be as honest as the UK and her allies all reflecting the same results. Neither are objective which is why I stated there should be an independent (as much as possible) analysis. The UN could do it and even if there is bias in the UN it would give the appearance of an independent body and therefore turn global sentiment against Russia and make it more difficult for Russia to deny accusations in the future. There are impactful ramifications into the future regardless of what happens, but to make SOME attempt is better than none.
JaMaAuWright They didn't give it to them at all. Which is dumb, because they supposedly manufactured it. They were THE ONLY ONES who could've manufactured it, according to Britain. So, give it to them. Let them take a fucking looksie. They're, technically, the best fucking experts you can find. How do you like them apples? Also, give it to China, for example. Yeah, China is a Russian ally. And US, France and Germany are allies of UK. The "analysis" is extremely fucking one-sided so far.
Thank you for this video. I liked the last news report the best bc sometimes when I read about the current events, I feel like I can’t really comprehend what the articles state... You make it really clear, concise, and totally understandable to the average person haha. Thanks again!
i've been to chicago. i saw more asians than blacks. but keep blindly believing things someone else told you - actually, when read together with mine, your comment doesn't even make sense. but i get it - black automatically equals bad. that's what you're too chicken to just say outright
"things cited by multiple sources" doesn't even make sense. sources cite things? nevermind, you're too dumb to recognize these things or else you wouldn't have even used it in the first place. you or "things" cite a source, a source doesn't cite you (or things lmao)... you're welcome
There will be no Cold War. Many argue that it never ended. But to play to your suggestion; we are currently in a Cold War with China. While we aren’t fighting true proxy wars against China we are in technological competition, espionage, economic conflict and a diplomatic shoving match. They are our greatest global rival and a larger militaristic threat. However, it is highly unlikely that we will see direct warfare or conflict, we are heavily interdependent economically and it would be heavily detrimental and costly to both nations to engage in a true war.
My school threatened to take away our prom if anyone walked out. Instead mine and many schools in Elizabeth nj had assemblies with senators talking taking questions and talking about the shooting. Ig as payback a senator asked if we did a lockdown every month like we were supposed to and the whole gym said “no” embarrassing that principle and getting her in trouble.
Seriously threatened with taking prom away? Wtf? I'll fucking walk out the se on after they said they'd take away prom. Lives matter more than a fucking dance.
Jesus Nevarez 1. how is that funny 2. You’re calling someone dumb yet you spelled “you’re” wrong 3. You say that as if being a democratic is a bad thing
Dom Alex suppose to do a lockdown? What? I didn't hear about any walk outs. Only via this show. Since when is it ok to be truant. Even the local news doesn't seem to care
The more you learn about history the more terrifying where we are now becomes. The technology of mass killing has constantly been advancing and we've stayed the same reactionary small minded arrogant species.
Despite the tensions between Britain and Russia, I would not worry about WWIII. The world is now in a way that makes a world war very unlikely, if not impossible. That being said, just know that through NATO Europe, Canada and the US will be safe. And for others such as South Korea, New Zealand, Japan and Australia, remember that the US will always stand side by side with them.
I understand your anxiety all to well. It's a legitimate fear and nothing seems to help alleviate that fear. It is worth noting, however, that most countries realize there is no good outcome to WWIII. Russia, China, and even North Korea are well aware of the massive ramifications of such a war. What you are seeing right now is nothing more than political posturing. Russia is trying to rebuild the power it once yeilded under the USSR. Putin sees the fractured people of the US and our splintered relations with our allies as a chance to step up. He might be crazy but he's no fool. Also, if it helps any, the last time there was a world war communication was still a thing lacking. With the internet allowing for instant global communication I can now talk to my counterparts in Russia or China or most anywhere else in the world for that matter. I love Philip DeFranco's show and I am a proud Patreon but I do find it alarming when he pushes the "end of times" narrative. Worry not, Julia, those times are not upon us yet.
yeah im especially terrified because i know that russia has sent letter to some finnish-russian people to go back to russia because of "reasons" and basically all finnish people lost their collective shit and we have been sent letters that we may actually need to man up in the next year to prepare for war
Do you people honestly think there will be a war? Russia has no money to get into a war. There is a reason why it didn't contest America too much with Syria when it stationed people in Kurdish area.
During my school's walkout, i interviewed students on what we should do to fix it. Here are the results: 6 liberal sided answers 2 conservative sided answers 11 neutral answers
Morgan Roof goes to a school in my district, actually just down the road from mine. Literally just a week before this, in my school’s group chat about the walkout, many were defending her against someone who called her out, saying she can’t be held accountable for the sins of her brother. While she definitely cannot be harassed for what her brother did, that doesn’t excuse her from being a complete tool
at my school they strongly encouraged us to not walk out bc we were in the middle of a snow storm but instead they had 17 people around the school (14 students 3teachers) all representing one of the victims and they were silent the whole day and then a moment of silence at 10 instead of a walk out. we also had small activities in all of our classes to spread kindness and a “17 acts of kindness” thing (which was dumb i don’t think if you hold a door for someone they won’t shoot up a school) and at the end of the day we had an assembly with state troopers where we could ask questions and the troopers were terrible at answering but the questions that people asked got really good points across and i think it showed how much students care and that we want stuff done about it and i felt like people heard us rather than just thinking we’re dumb kids
But but i thought some study said we’re living in the most peaceful timeline and there’s nothing to be afraiiid of.... they weren’t *wronggggg* were they??? 😢
I have to disagree with Phil on the sign restriction. When I was in high school we had feminist protest signs and confederate flag posters both removed for not being approved 24 hours in advance. I think it’s a common practice by schools and if the student didn’t get the permission to display it then it is to be enforced. It’s like this at my college now too.
I think his issue was more on how the school selectively implemented that rule. There is no way all of the people in that protest had every single sign or poster approved beforehand, so having that one counter-protest kid be the only one to have action taken against him just makes it seem awfully selective.
Our school had teachers walk out with us and made sure to make sure that the students were safe! The superintendent made sure to email all of our parents saying that they supported the walk out and are going to do their best to help allow for a safe walk out.
i have to commend rhianna for mentioning men as domestic violence victims, usually when victims are mentioned they only talk about the women and children. yet here we see rhianna giving men a mention in there as well. every victim of domestic abuse deserves to be heared and mentioned , so it's good that someone in the public eye talks about all of them , not just the 2 that are always talked about. well done young lady, i applaud you for this.
I have a personal thing to talk about with the walkout. So my school also had the rule that we weren’t allowed to go outside, but we were allowed to go in the gym for 17 minutes of silence. When we were supposed to go at 10, it was our lunch time, but still a lot of people wanted to go to the gym. The principal & Vice principal had blocked the cafeteria exits before we could go to the gym which everyone found weird, and when one girl tried to go past them she was ordered to sit back down. The principal then announced that no one was to go to the gym to walk. A lot of people who actually cared about the cause were outraged and very mad at the principal and vice principal. My friend then told me that she had algebra class before lunch, and her teacher let the kids make posters about gun violence. She then said that the principal came into the classroom and ripped down all of the posters. (A lot of other people who had that teacher can confirm this actually happened) I’m still so confused as to why the principal had such a huge problem with us just going to the gym, and why he had a problem with the whole poster thing.
Christian Duque teachers can’t impose their own political opinions on students but that does not mean that they can’t allow the students to express their political views
I understand that. It was a special day and it's not like the Algebra teacher was forcing them to make posters. The teacher was probably like "Since you couldn't go to the gym, I guess you can make a poster in here as long as it's not violent or graphic".
Our government in the uk have a habit of making a big fuss over something to distract the country from something they’re doing that they don’t want to draw attention to. The whole thing seems sketchy.
doo wop, yeah like Brexit which is more important than this where we have to make a plan on how we shall leave. Let the police come up with a result on the how, where and when before we can start this finger pointing
SpookyKettle the fact that it’s a chemical attack in be first place is worrying, how does it benefit russia to make such an obvious move then deny it? Call me a conspiracist but I reckon it was done by the British government 🤔
doo wop its quite outlandish to say that the uk government was behind it. ruling out whatever evidence we have now and just looking at history, russia is known for putting its sketchy behaviour in the spotlight. im not saying the uk government is innocent but its secret services are always extremely private and keep out of the public eye. putin could possibly be trying to send a message with this attack , but who knows, im certainly no expert.
SpookyKettle it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Russia was behind it but our government doesn’t usually act so rash. I realise it’s quite a unique situation and maybe it’s just May’s style of doing things but not even giving Russia the chance to analyse the agent before kicking out the diplomats seems odd. The whole thing just feels iffy to me
WW1 was started because one guy was shot. I hope we’ve learned from that and things don’t spiral out of control. But I don’t have much faith left in our species.
Of course! we should obviously allow the Russian carte blanche to kill our people. after all... its only a single man. a single woman. a single child. a single village, a single town, a single city.
Our school allowed the protest. There were some grown adults who came to our school with an American flag and signs protesting the protest at my school. It was all peaceful though.
Audrey 100 my school allowed it to. I don’t know if any students stayed, but I know that many did go. Very peaceful, although our hands were freezing off
I mean that's fair, but highly unfortunate they don't understand why these kids are walking out in the first place. The kids are thinking of their friends who were killed or could potentially be killed without reason at their school. But these adult protesters are too concerned with their ideas that these kids want guns taken away and have no idea what they're doing. It's quite tragic when people can't see eye to eye on what's mostly (though not entirely) a moral issue.
I didn't do the walkout because over half the students at my school in California only walked out to get out of class. My school along with allowing the walkout at lunch had a way for students to contact representatives. So, I found wrote a letter instead.
i nearly shat my pants when you said IRA i dont think you realise that it was a group in ireland (Irish Republican Army) and when you said i was like what in the name of god are they doingn with Russia.
Annie Mai Yeah exactly that was so weird lol. I was wondering if philly d made a typo. In my neighborhood in rhode island the ira is pretty well-known to locals.
I had the same reaction... I had to think twice. Either it was an unfortunate coincidence or someone was trying to be ironic. I am guessing the latter is the case.
I am actually from sayreville high school, and I have to say that yes, there was multiple people that left school. There were also around 50 of us who walked into the auditorium who are now facing some form of detention. Me and a bunch of my friends also created hundreds of post it notes with the number 17 and posted it all around our school. I do believe what Rosa did was important and good, but it should aslo be known that she is not the only one in our school who cared
I have a friend that stated if she had kids she would have "locked them away in a closet with a gun" during the protest to "show that guns don't kill people" and that the kids "were just wasting their time and being dumb and useless". She responded to anyone criticizing her with "fake news".
2:57 ok soooo. The son did what he did. We see the sister is the way she is. Sooooo who in the hell are the parents? They say the apple don't fall far from the tree, and if both siblings are that twisted. The parents must be closet mass murders. Like holy shit, what must their household be like.
I think it's more cause and effect. That the actions her brother had resulted in her life getting shitty because she had to take all the blame and shit from everyone growing up and it made her this way, and now she's too deep in to change or rather, no one has pointed out to her that her views are wrong and not everyone is an asshole. Instead she keeps getting it re-affirmed that the world just sucks. Of course I could be reading too much into it, she could just have had shitty parents and all that.
My school made the walkout a school wide event. Student who did not support the walkout were welcome to stay in class. We were allowed to bring our own poster and had different speakers.
I agree completely, bringing marijuana to school obviously never a good idea, and a bigoted pretty trash person... But come on Philly, I'm a 19 year old girl and I carried pepper spray both in high school and now in college. I know many of my male classmates carried pocket knifes. "Weapons" seems harsh to me. Both are very common, and I don't think either are unreasonable if they are kept in the bag while on campus. If you're a person who walks home, uses public transportation, or just hangs out late, i think its a safety thing, especially as a teenager. Again "weapons" seems misleading, I don't see it likely that either are for anything but a safety precaution, in most situations, even one involving a racist.
Bob, she probably carried the knife and pepper spray to defend herself against people like you who want to punish and harass her for a family members crimes. I've seen TONS of gun control supporter crazies post the exact same thing, but surprise surprise they aren't arrested or investigated. I carried a knife and pepper spray to high school every day. I was (am) gay, and picked on regularly, and it made me feel safer knowing I could defend myself if they tried to really hurt me this time. It also helped me take the abuse and get through my days, oddly. But actually I started carrying because someone older than me, a random stranger, tried to start a fight with me for literally no reason after I got off the bus and was walking home one day.
Can you imagine the backlash the administration would get for arresting a girl for carrying a pepper spray and knife if this was college? It's funny how a simple label (racist) can change most people's minds.
if your intent and perspective is racist, bigot and pessimistic on something for the positive then yes, a pocket knife is a weapon, if you carry it for defense you can carry for offense and base on are statement it can go really bad for anyone around her. never compare yourself to her.
TheTitanian maybe I'm reading this wrong but I think you missed the joke. It was a reference to the current global relations climate being similar to that of the Cold War.
TheTitanian I mean wasn't Russia saying some shit about going to mars soon, idk I swear I saw that shit on Reddit. I mean if Mars is the new space race destination I'm down.
Only 6 of us at my school walked out. We were told we could not attend prom, that we would be in ISS or expelled. Students were at the doors (to stop us) but told us they would not. Our vice principal came out and stood with us. We have received no punishment.
I would use instagram a lot more IF THEY BROUGHT BACK THE CHRONOLOGICAL TIMELINE. WHY DID YOU RUIN A PERFECTLY GOOD THING?! From a user standpoint, there is no fucking point to show posts based on an algorithm, especially if incidents seem to prove that it doesn't even work properly.
John Daly curse you for giving me false hope :D I had checked back when I got the app and didn't know there had been such a feature, once again after I learned of it, and did so again after your comment, wondering if I had overlooked it. That may still be so, but even on the third comb through I found nothing.
Are you saying that the students wanting to march can't think for themselves? You know this how?? These are high schoolers, dude. Pretty sure they can think for themselves.
The school is not supposed to hold your hand when it comes to free thinking, you learn that yourself. The school provides you the basic building blocks to further expand your knowledge on your own time if you choose to do so. Either you're too young to realize how stupid your comment is, or you're too stupid in general to realize that critical thinking is something that is very hard to teach and a difficult concept for young students to learn in the time teachers are allotted in each teaching session. Keep in mind that they also have to instill basic knowledge and lessons in you so that you're not ignoarant enough to actually think things like "Communism is actually a viable form of government"
My school didn't even allow students to say the word "gun" in our speeches, and many members of the student council has their speeches rewritten. Our protest was forced inside due to "weather" (snow on the ground) but those concerns were bullshit as we had a fire drill the day after (today) with snow still on the ground. Kids who walked out anyways were silenced by teachers when they tried to speak, and were threatened with suspensions, both in school and out of school. In the end, no one was punished, but the announcement of the punishment was incredibly dismissive of the students concerns, treating the like ornery delinquents who just wanted to get out of school, calling them disrespectful. I know you get a lot of people saying that "you should mention this" and "you should mention that" in the comments, but I want to ask you to mention my school in the next video to bring awareness to this censorship of student speech and utter disrespect coming from adults to students with genuine concerns. My school is Ellington High School.
To be fair..Most students just wanted a day off. Lets not fool our selves here. We all went to school and everyone of us went trough non sense and was happy to get a day off for "protesting" .
Walking out of school warrants suspension. That's what would happen any other day, I have no idea why anybody thinks that just because it's "organized" that somehow means the law isn't the law. Kids HAVE to be in school during the day. If you don't want to be then wait until the legal age and drop out.
Your school is smart, these walkout are nothing but to make kids feel like there adults when there not. One day your smoking weed and failing algebra the next day you think you deserve a voice on school safety?? Hun it doesn’t work like that.
mate you really can't complain about censorship when Antifa and other radical leftist groups literally send death threats to people who don't agree with them and behave violently to get talks shut down
I-am PrOxY Go to war? Really? May and co have heavily cut our armed forces and given themselves massive pay rises. So I think war is highly unlikely. Hence why we are only sending reinforcements to NATO countries near Russia.
Oof, I'm lucky to go to such a lenient school. Two teachers told those of us who walked out they were proud of us and even the security guard just told us to stay safe on our way out.
daimon hellstrom -- Was that even English? And quite often kid's end up getting their racism from their parents; the people they grew up in the same household with. So no it's not wrong to not be surprised that one child displaying such racism has a sibling that is clearly also racist. It's just being realistic. Stop living in lala land. As long as they don't automatically judge and poorly treat the person for another member's actions *BEFORE* they display the same mindset -- there's nothing wrong with a statement like that and there's no reason to be triggered by it. Sounds like someone has a guilty conscience. LOL
QuiteDecent I think he is probably waiting to cover it as the full story emerges. It's not consistent, but I think he doesn't want to become outdated within seconds of the video being launvhed so he waits for a more concrete story to get his facts straight. At least, that's what I notice

Hey Phil. Also worth noting that somebody at the same exact high school (AC Flora) was arrested on the exact same day for bringing a loaded firearm to school. This in no way negates what roof's sister did but it is interesting to me that this doesn't get mentioned as much
So ... the school has the right to censor your protest by forcing you to submit any messages/signs ahead of time, allowing them to deny them? That's not a protest, that's advertising.
Philip, as a Sarasota County Schools Student, in Sarasota Florida, I felt that the walk out pushed aside anyone who wants a push towards aiding mental health in the United States. I live in a state with a ranking of #43 nationally for access to care, and #41 for youth access to care. Mental health is a serious issue that is being swept under the rug. I want to host a sit in in my high school, but I am a senior and I don’t want to jeopardize the college acceptance that I have received. I feel alone and ignored. I’ve been insulted for not walking out with the rest of my school when our county organized the walk out. I don’t know what to do. One school in our county was going to force students to walk out, but they canceled due to a student committing suicide the day before. Whether it was related to the walk out i’m unsure, but it’s just another life lost to depression in my generation. I’ve had friends who have attempted suicide on campus, luckily they were stopped in time. It’s a real problem, and noone seems to give a f*** what do I do?
I would like to redact my statement on the suicide, as i did not confirm it ahead of time. There is no news about it , i should have confirmed it, it may be a rumor but it may also not yet be released. I apologize if either are the case.
Two things. One, any university that would rescind your offer of acceptance (or choose not to give you one in the first place) because of your involvement in a peaceful political rally is not one you want to go to. Two - gun control and mental health go hand in hand. Those suicides you talk about? Because it is so easy to get access to a gun it is so much easier for a person to commit suicide. Studies have shown that even putting small road blocks in the way of people wanting to commit suicide is often enough to dissuade them entirely. So gun control, more than stopping mass shooters, will save a huge number of lives just by making suicide that little bit more difficult.
+Lane Heyen Guns aren't the only way for someone to kill themselves. It's just easier for some people since it's "quick and painless." Nothing a belt, overdosing on drugs, a knife and other objects can't fix though. I'm on the side of mental health here, though I do believe guns are an important part of the argument, mental health is a lot more important.
Lance Heyen banning an assault rifle wont cure my friends depression, or prevent them from swallowing pills, or give more money to mental health facilities, or reach out to students in need. My point is that guns are being used as a scape goat for mental health, and I feel shut down by others because I believe that way. Florida passed new legislation increasing the buying age from 18-21.... that was almost a week before the walk out. Trust me, no one I know who are thinking about it will be using an Ar-14 to leave this world. It’s that lie that pushes our need under the rug. Thanks for the response though, I appreciate it.
Perhaps if you frame the event for mental health awareness in general rather than as a reaction to the shooting, it would not only be acceptable but will also probably make colleges want you more. Maybe wait a little bit until after the March is done and go for it.
regarding the snapchat or insta question, i personally like insta stories more. i use snapchat more often, however, bc i’ve made it a friends-only platform whereas insta is a public account. despite that, i like that for insta stories, u could now save it as highlights on ur profile, and there’s an archive you can look back to once the 24 hours are up. this lets me know who’s seen my story even if they’ve expired. insta stories are rlly doing their best to keep up with snapchat, and competition is beneficial to the consumers in this case. we have better options to choose from
Philip DeFranco, I wasn’t a student, but I went to see what they did with it. Their school handled the whole thing quite practically; they had to have a note from their parents. The sit in felt right, but the march/speeches were weird. They marched to a park (not the courthouse they had planned on), and had speakers talk. Someone read a rather silly poem explaining that we shouldn’t have gun rights because some people are too clumsy to own a gun. A few local politicians got up to give vague speeches that included one proposed idea (lowering the allowed capacity to 10) between the three of them. Some students got up to share their fears, and a few experiences with gun violence (including a boy who had contemplated shooting himself). The dynamic between the kids and the adults was weird. The adults lead chants and seem to have provided signs. The vibe was weird. I got a fair amount of it on video, but my battery died before the student testimonials: th-cam.com/video/jDKuusp36O4/w-d-xo.html
The previous twitch viewer record was not held by Dr Disrespect it was a League of Legends streamer called Tyler1 who had over 400k on his return but twitch ignored it because of his notoriety. Ninja still smashed any record for individual stream but the Dr never held the record.
Curse of Annubis Wrong, Doc definitely did hold the record, but not for long. Tyler1 came back and beat it by ~13k viewers. If you’re going to try to correct someone get your damn facts right.
Bryan Lutz The stream also started around 1am US eastern time. That’s literally like the worst time to stream it terms of viewership. Had it been earlier, it would’ve got far more than 600k.
I still use the Snapchat story over the Instagram story, but mainly because I don't have all of my contacts on Instagram, but I do on SC. Not only that, but people seem to post more personal stuff on SC because it goes away after 24 hrs and nothing is permanent without the person knowing who screenshotted it and what not.
I walked out of school yesterday, and let me be perfectly clear: I don't give a shit about school shootings. Everyday in school is hell. I get insulted, cussed at, shoved at lockers, harassed. If adults and students really cared about school shootings they'd do something about how toxic schools are. It's all a joke bc people don't really do anything about why schools are getting shot at in the first place. They are shit/hell holes, and bad things happen at shit holes. I walked out just because I didn't want to be in class, and so did most people I know. Students and teachers know how toxic schools are. They just don't give a shit. Then someone kills themselves or shoots up a school and people say, "I wish I would have known. I would have done something about it." They know. It's sad. That's why I'm not impressed about these kids speaking out about guns, because my question is, "Where were you before? Were you the bully? And if not, why did you allow it to happen?" It's only an issue when they get shot at, but if someone is shit on everyday they don't care.
Oscar Wilde bruh just hang in their later in life those people gonna be shallow lonely unhappy fucks cause they cant act like a idiot anymore and you could laugh at em back
Some kid today killed himself on livefeed for 4chan with a shotgun. He was anonymous, so I don't know who he is, but I did unfortunately see the video (because the internet is fucked up). He waved goodbye and then just blew his brains out in his room. At first I was skeptical, which is fine, but I wasn't shocked. And I'm not bragging to not have been moved. But is it a bad thing that people are insensitive to it? As anyone who would have done it for a response would have been greeted by nothing but emotionless people knowing that, despite it being horrible, people just kill themselves? Is this absolute desensitization of the new globally connected word a bad thing, or are we removing negative responses in return of better knowing the horrors of this world, and not being scared of them? Sorry if that doesn't make sense, I'm still thinking about it.
Dylan Wagner one jfc that must have been a bloody (no pun intended) traumatic to see and I would agree to you that the world has become more desensitised to violence, but tbh for you it might be shock which is why you aren’t feeling much atm, the fact you are still processing it makes it seem likely
"but this interconnected world of ours is beginning to show the internet's massive downsides" If anything it shows how soft you've all become. I'ts not been a long time since people were faced with brutal scenes on a daily basis. Millions of people saw worse than this just in WWII, but also all the other wars, they didn't all break down a cry every time they saw someone shot, or disembowelled or exploded into little pieces or chopped up in medieval sword/axe/spear fighting. You do know that there was a war called "the 100 years war", right? do you think people were breaking down every time they saw someone die? or until just about 100 years ago even in "civilised" countries, infant and child mortality was sky-high, yet entire nations weren't paralysed by people wailing in the streets. 50 years of relatively easy times and people in civilised countries have forgotten what the daily struggle used to look like.
TheTitanian I'm a 18 yr old UK woman and this shit is really getting to people here. We knew an escalation would happen and we knew that the world would have to give a response on what they thought. However, the pace of events is scary.
The problem is, there needs to be a consensus that fair treatment is alive and well and the fact that there is a Bill stating that between UK and Russia there requires a joint investigation to get both sides, and obviously UK is not willing for this to happen, what are they hiding? The Idea that just because a group of nations came out and sided with alleged hearsay does not negate the fact that it does in fact seem to be quite one sided.
Gotta go jump into Friday show. Curious to hear your thoughts on today's show. If you were a student that participated in yesterday's protests, let me know how it went. Wanna skip around? Here ya go...

Philip DeFranco hi
Eh I'd like more real news o.O...
Snapchat is Cancelled Party Commencing In 3....2....

I love youuuu ❤❤❤
My school forced us to Sit In the auditorium instead of walking out. Our school safety officers were blocking the doors, but us students still went into the auditorium and stayed silent for 17 minutes. A few of us have written letters to Congress in a push for laws focusing on not just guns but mental health. It felt good that kids my age finally stood up for something, and I'm proud of everybody who stood up for what they believed in, and I hope this keeps the discussion going. #NeverAgain
Our school gave us signs saying “I walk because...” and gave us designated points to walk to so we could have 17 minutes of silence for the victims. We were allowed to write whatever we wanted on the signs and we wouldn’t get in trouble for it. Everybody stood in silence, nobody fought, and although a lot of us had different opinions and completely different signs, we all stood in unity for those 17 minutes in a blizzard. One person wrote “I walk for gun control” on their sign, and the person next to them wrote “I walk for the second amendment” on their sign. Despite our conflicting opinions, there were no fights, just unity
The way it should be.
The walk out is political activism which has no place in school, a memorial would have been more appropriate.
desi masc that's beautiful
John Walter, there has been plenty of time for memorials, plenty of time to pay respects. Political activism is more appropriate in school than a gun/knife/drugs, but hey.
Kate Butler Political activism is inappropriate in school because parents of all views pay taxes supporting schools and send their kids to schools, therefore schools should push views. Schools educate, not indoctrinate.
Damn,. Rihanna actually mentioned male victims of domestic violence. Good on her
Amen.
it's an improvement, but some people are still going to see it as a prioritization of the 'correct' victims: women, children, then men. However, she does it in any other order, and she'd likely get more pushback (kinda damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario). She's taken the time to put her thoughts in order and it's a careful response.
I don't dislike Rhianna, but I haven't been given much of a reason to like her either. Then I saw that she included men in her list of DV victims. She gets a brownie point. Thank you for recognizing that it's not just women and children that get abused.
Not just the men, but the women, and the children too.

Gotta be honest, if I was in high school still, I probably wouldn't have planned on walking out with everyone because I think the issue of gun control is really complicated, and I don't want to come across as making a stand that I am not (if that makes any sense). But FUCK dude, if my school locked the gates, called an assembly, scheduled a drill, threatened suspension? I would ABSOLUTELY walk out, just because they DIDN'T want me to, just because they were trying to sensor these students that are, whether you believe they should be or not, ARE scared for their lives. FUCK american education.
i will agree with you on locking the gates and such, but thats just because that seems like a safety issue to me. fact of the matter is though, the students don't have a right to walk out, if they had a right to leave whenever they want, then tardiness and unexcused absences wouldn't be punishable.
additionally, what is the point of a walkout if the school allows you to do it. the whole point of a walkout is that its meant to be disruptive. if the people you're 'disrupting' have planned for that disruption, then its an empty gesture.
furthermore, about walkouts specifically. The reason walk-outs are a type of protest, is because you're essentially saying 'i believe in this so much that i am willing to be punished in order to have my voice on the matter be heard. if there's no threat of punishment, again the gesture is empty.
TL:DR if there's no opposition to your method of protest, your protest is empty.
Censor
sillyking1991 they actually do have every right to walk out of school. No teachers or administration can physically stop them until they actually break a law. They can be punished afterwards of course, but they cannot be detained. Also, it’s called civil disobedience, learn what that means
if they are allowed to be punished afterward....then its not a right. its still against the rules. I haven't said that students SHOULDN'T walk out. I am simply pointing out that this walk out is in no way reflective of 'politicaly aware' students.
sillyking1991 That's not really how rights work. I mean, free speech is a right, but your job can still fire you for what you said. Doesn't stop it from being a right. In this case, they can't be physically stopped, but can be punished for their actions.
Wish that it was mentioned that not only the russian double agent and his daughter were hospitalized, but 21 people in total were affected, including a first responding officer. This is straight up terrorism.
I'm pretty sure Phil mentioned those 21 people in another video where he first talked about the story, I can't remember which video that is, but it is pretty disturbing.
Who is responsible? Terrorism towards who? proof? How would the party responsible for the attack benefit from said terror/assasination? Especially in the way it has been done, Its like killing somebody cant be done more efficiently. Looks like it was done to provoke attention.. . . . There is something very wrong with this incident.
All im hearing are allegations from state officials.
Cin3 If putin was a part of this i think it was to tell the other parties at russia that he is not weak? Just a theory made i thought in my mind at 01.33am
Daezeth Do you really think that using a chemical weapon that is forbidden by the Geneva Conventions to kill one irrelevant ex-spy wil put putin in a good light in russia. Do you really think the other parties in russia / russians like to be viewed as transgressors of international law that could potentially jeopardize the economy.
thats dumb
Cin3 Russia is responsible, there's no doubt. Russia used a Russian Military Grade nerve agent against a defector. Why? To send a message to any other possible russian agents: If they defect, they will die. It doesn't matter whether they go, no country can protect them. That's why Putin used an exclusively Russian nerve agent.
Honestly if you look into Russian assassinations over the past 10 years against people who are against Putin you'll find a bunch, though normally they happen either in Russia, or Eastern Europeen countries.
This attack stands out because it's on British soil. If this had been in Ukraine, you wouldn't have heard any western nations talk about it; but seeing as it's on British soil that's what's caused thsi outrage: Russia believes they can assassinate anyone they want, wherever they want.
If you look at the Russian state media, and some comments made by Putin over the past few days, you'll see that he they don't make any attempt to hide the murder. One clip that really stands out is a bit on Russia media, a man announces the attack saying "A traitor to our country was victim of a nerve agent attack in the UK. Let this serve as a warning to all traitors ect..." can't remember the exact quote, but it was something like that.
"Daezeth Do you really think that using a chemical weapon that is forbidden by the Geneva Conventions to kill one irrelevant ex-spy wil put putin in a good light in russia. Do you really think the other parties in russia / russians like to be viewed as transgressors of international law that could potentially jeopardize the economy."
Honestly I believe that Russia his going to victimize itself to it's people saying "They blame us for everything, we had nothing to do with it. This is further proof the West is iur ennemy."
I do believe Putin would do this, he does it to all of his political opponents, and this wasn't about killing some irrelevant spy. This was about sending a message to all those who have thoughts of defecting: We will kill you, no matter where you go.

So if world war 3 does start, do you think the internet will still meme even till the nukes hit?
Yes.
yes
that question doesnt need an answer, look at the subreddits people meme about with deaths and depression memes are forever they say cockroaches are the only things that will survive nuclear war butwhat they dont say is that the mutated cockroaches will take our place creating memes. Memes are just as inevitable as death and entropy.
Yeap. We'll meme till the nukes knock out the internet for good. And then i'll find a cliff to jump off or find a near by mushroom cloud cause life without internet .... nope. Not doing it.
Nah. They'd meme even AFTER the nukes hit
My school held a rally for 17 minutes instead of a walk out which I was kind of okay with. Afterwards in class, we discussed the schools policies on lockdowns. I asked my teacher what we were supposed to do if we saw the shooter or happened to meet them and she said that “the school doesn’t teach us about that. I tried asking the principal but he said he had no idea” I just really think that students and teacher should be given more information for different scenarios to help if there was another tragedy.
卌Dolan Trash Fight back, or run.
if you didnt realize by now lefty school system knows only how to feel and dont have any ideas on how to stop this kind of tragedies and democrats use them to take down second amendment
When I was in school there was a threat that a bomb was inside the school. We were then LOCKED inside the school so we couldn't leave.... Thank god guns r banned in Canada LOL. Imagine. "Oh no a shooter!! Run towards him"
Not true. Seems like this generation doesn't feel for anyone anymore. People literally record people dieing now. Texting and driving, zero regard for other people and it's getting worse and worse every single day we continue without any accountability. We are so detatched from eachother meanwhile being more conntected than ever.
Sadly, if you come across a shooter in a hallway, and there is no chance of getting away, you fight. You do what you can to try and invompacitate them to try and protect others. It is either fight or flight. If you can't run, you might as well fight. I'd personally rather die knowing I tried. Maybe I gave someone around the corner or down the hall the chance to get into a classroom.
See ya tomorrow, when WWIII is declared.

That girl should be investigated by the FBI because it seems Apple doesn’t fall from the tree and her actions seem to shadow her brothers and they should prevent another tragic loss of life her brother remorselessly killed 9 people because they were black by her words and actions it’s safe to say she would to also someone look into the parents because those kids definitely didn’t raise them selves
lmao
str.replace(/[?.,\/#!$%\^&\*;:{}=\-_`~()]/g,"");
Are you saying her brother is also her father?
Corsair Chip No one cares about her bigotry. The issue lies where she stated that she hopes for everyone to get shot. If that’s not disturbing to you, you might have issues buddy. I’m an avid gun owner, and I would never say something even remotely moronic as what she did. I don’t think her “weapons” were any big deal, but her words and thoughts are very alarming; even more so due to her mental state from getting an avalanche of death threats and hate messages sent to her every day since her brother’s shooting.
You seem to be posting a lot of comments focusing on bigotry. She’s not being targeted for her “racist” statement. No one gives a fuck about that. Again, she’s being targeted because she stated that she hoped all the students would get shot. Try to carve that into your brain, and stop whining in the comment section. America is the land of the brave and free, not the land of the whiney bitches.

The ORIGINAL idea for the walkout was pretty cool. Shame it was ruined by people using kids as puppets for their political agenda and students themselves walking out just for fun and destroying property while out there. This is why we can't have good things...
Honestly I think a candlelit vigil would be more appropriate. If you've ever been to one, you know how beautiful, touching and respectful they are.
Nothing says freedom of speech like censored speech.
You always see people crying when far-righters are punished on college campuses; these same crying hypocrites are tellingly silent or even celebratory when anti-trumpers are censored.
COAKY most American schools outside of colleges do not allow protests on school property. I'm not against protests but do it during school hours across the street or as close to the school as you can without being on their property and the school will not be able to a thing.
There can be a defense of censored speech because it is packed in with hate speech, in which case it is offensive to the majority of listeners. But that doesn't excuse individuals abusing this ambiguity, so long as the environment is organised and out of control. Like clearly that one chick with the gun was spitting hate speech, but I understand that Right and Left Liberals get too radical in these matters and don't understand the difference.
You should at least listen to the opposing side. Learn what you should not be, understand their thinking, and have a conversation if permissible. Being uneducated or cutting the tongue of an opinion we do not approve of, this benefits no side. Ever.
Courtney Weatherman
When do 'anti-trumpers' get censored? When you're not allowed to just get up and leave school during the middle of the day? That's not censoring free speech lmfao
*Freedom of speech does not equate to freedom from consequences.*
my school didnt let us do the walkout bc we had a delay and there "wasn't time in the schedule" so the principal went outside and yelled at all the students peacefully protesting (one teacher was even pulling students back inside). they said they were rescheduling it to next week so the students had to go back inside...you can't reschedule a nationwide protest
gkschoolprojects We had a delay to but we were still allowed to walk out and we had a tornado drill before the walk out
But every school is different
ive never been in a Tornado so excuse me if im being ignorant but isnt there abit of warning before they hit
Morgan Freeman . What do you do in a tornado drill
Morgan Freeman I've lived in Louisiana for ten years and have been in Alabama for nearly ten as well. The city is supposed to sound an alarm once a tornado is sighted but in terms of a warning from mother nature? No...if you yourself aren't paying attention, damn straight that shit can just drop down. A few of the biggest signs are a greenish-yellow sky (I remember being forcefully woken up one Sunday morning when I was about 12 and herded into the windowless bathroom with my siblings because the sky was that shade. I believe a tornado did hit...just not our city) and of course, swirling clouds.
There may be hail and heavy rain but not always. And people say it sounds like a train; I can't confirm that. However, it will rattle things even before descending. My mom yanked me out of school one day (a school completely lined with windows and where many of our classes were trailers disconnected from the main building) because a tornado passed overhead. She was at Walmart with my younger sibling and it caused the lights to go out.
So! Is it worth practicing a tornado drill? Absolutely. Not all tornados appear the same way so you might not have time to get a warning from the city.
Our Engineering teacher got fired for grabbing a student because they wanted to walk out.
dang...
I wonder whos losing out on a more valuable thing. Us because some kid wasn't standing outside making me more aware of how evil people who like guns are? Or us because we need to find a new engieering teacher and another person whos supposed to be an engineering teacher needs to find a new job?
Curio All he did was play angry birds and flunk students he didn't like so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ not really a huge loss
Curio (that and there is already a qualified teacher that came back and, as far as we know, will officially start the job after spring break so again, its all good ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
Good
I started using Snapchat
A friend sent me a chat
Got distracted in real life
Missed what it was and it disappeared forever
I stopped using Snapchat
Gutty Dozen why
Ya I can't stand the app for that reason too. It should only have pictures. And text them otherwise.
I'm a Uk resident and I'm deeply disturbed by the events that have unfolded. The fact that 30 odd people were seen in hospitals and troops were deployed to the restaurant where they ate to remove items is shocking. If this was an attack by Russia then that is exactly what it is, an attack. However, I'm also concerned as to why the government did not hand over a sample to the Russians from the porton down facility or hand over samples to the un security council for unbiased analysis. I believe that the situation has been drastically escalated by the breakdown of communication by both sides. But Russia has some serious explaining to do. My family could have been eating in that resteraunt, it has seriously undermined our national security and the right to feel safe.
If you hand anything over to the Russians they will test it and deny that its novichok and probably say its a nerve agent made in the UK. I think more serious measures need to be taken than just what she has put forward so far. I don't think there strong enough after a chemical weapon attack
I agree, the sanctions placed on russia werent anything too serious, however, the chemical is going to be handed over to the chemical weapons committee soon and then they will confirm it and i feel as though we will have a stronger response after that
I think Russia is partly justified in asking for an independent investigation per international law. I’d like to see multiple sources identifying this agent before the agent becomes the central cause of major global conflict. If we take further action I want it to be justified conclusively . Especially when actions like this can and have caused wars
RomanLegion
I know, right?
"We've found a poisun that only u haz. Explain!"
"Alright, can we please see it?"
"No! No see! Only explain!"
I simply think that it is prudent for us to be objective in matters that could lead to global conflict. Russia has a lot to be scared and upset about, we have made many mistakes in international diplomacy by not entirely understanding Russia position and adequately responding to it. This isn’t to say they’re right, this isn’t to say that if Russia commutes these acts that it isn’t an absolutely unacceptable violation of sovereignty (something we aren’t exactly innocent of). But if we as the United States seek to uphold our values of civil freedom, fair justice and democratic process, we must act on these values internationally as well as domestically.
I don't think that only giving it to Russia for examination is a good idea. They could very easily just say "No, this isn't our neurotoxin." Even if it was. The Russian propaganda machine is strong, and I've no doubt that they would manipulate results or otherwise falsely report them in order to save face on a global scale. If you hand it off to a number of different countries for analysis, and only Russia is saying it's not their poison... there's a pretty good chance that it's their poison.
JaMaAuWright I don’t doubt that at all that Russia would manipulate or flat out lie about the results. I wouldn’t expect honest results. They’d be as honest as the UK and her allies all reflecting the same results. Neither are objective which is why I stated there should be an independent (as much as possible) analysis. The UN could do it and even if there is bias in the UN it would give the appearance of an independent body and therefore turn global sentiment against Russia and make it more difficult for Russia to deny accusations in the future. There are impactful ramifications into the future regardless of what happens, but to make SOME attempt is better than none.
JaMaAuWright
They didn't give it to them at all. Which is dumb, because they supposedly manufactured it. They were THE ONLY ONES who could've manufactured it, according to Britain.
So, give it to them. Let them take a fucking looksie. They're, technically, the best fucking experts you can find. How do you like them apples?
Also, give it to China, for example.
Yeah, China is a Russian ally. And US, France and Germany are allies of UK. The "analysis" is extremely fucking one-sided so far.
Thank you for this video. I liked the last news report the best bc sometimes when I read about the current events, I feel like I can’t really comprehend what the articles state... You make it really clear, concise, and totally understandable to the average person haha. Thanks again!

So hostilities with Russia? Who will the Cold War be fought through this time?
Ukraine or Syria
Georgia, Ukraine, Syria, and Yemen off the top of my head
A different continent.... why should Europe have all the fun again...
There will be no Cold War. Many argue that it never ended. But to play to your suggestion; we are currently in a Cold War with China. While we aren’t fighting true proxy wars against China we are in technological competition, espionage, economic conflict and a diplomatic shoving match. They are our greatest global rival and a larger militaristic threat. However, it is highly unlikely that we will see direct warfare or conflict, we are heavily interdependent economically and it would be heavily detrimental and costly to both nations to engage in a true war.
Probably north Korea again lol

My school threatened to take away our prom if anyone walked out. Instead mine and many schools in Elizabeth nj had assemblies with senators talking taking questions and talking about the shooting.
Ig as payback a senator asked if we did a lockdown every month like we were supposed to and the whole gym said “no” embarrassing that principle and getting her in trouble.
Seriously threatened with taking prom away? Wtf? I'll fucking walk out the se on after they said they'd take away prom. Lives matter more than a fucking dance.
Jesus Nevarez
1. how is that funny
2. You’re calling someone dumb yet you spelled “you’re” wrong
3. You say that as if being a democratic is a bad thing
Jesus Nevarez nj so yep (specifically to the gun law part)
Dom Alex suppose to do a lockdown? What? I didn't hear about any walk outs. Only via this show. Since when is it ok to be truant. Even the local news doesn't seem to care
1.21 Jiggawatts almost everything can kill people though.
I get too much anxiety about WWIII whenever I watch your show.
The more you learn about history the more terrifying where we are now becomes. The technology of mass killing has constantly been advancing and we've stayed the same reactionary small minded arrogant species.
Despite the tensions between Britain and Russia, I would not worry about WWIII. The world is now in a way that makes a world war very unlikely, if not impossible. That being said, just know that through NATO Europe, Canada and the US will be safe. And for others such as South Korea, New Zealand, Japan and Australia, remember that the US will always stand side by side with them.
I understand your anxiety all to well. It's a legitimate fear and nothing seems to help alleviate that fear. It is worth noting, however, that most countries realize there is no good outcome to WWIII. Russia, China, and even North Korea are well aware of the massive ramifications of such a war. What you are seeing right now is nothing more than political posturing. Russia is trying to rebuild the power it once yeilded under the USSR. Putin sees the fractured people of the US and our splintered relations with our allies as a chance to step up. He might be crazy but he's no fool.
Also, if it helps any, the last time there was a world war communication was still a thing lacking. With the internet allowing for instant global communication I can now talk to my counterparts in Russia or China or most anywhere else in the world for that matter.
I love Philip DeFranco's show and I am a proud Patreon but I do find it alarming when he pushes the "end of times" narrative. Worry not, Julia, those times are not upon us yet.
yeah im especially terrified because i know that russia has sent letter to some finnish-russian people to go back to russia because of "reasons" and basically all finnish people lost their collective shit and we have been sent letters that we may actually need to man up in the next year to prepare for war
Do you people honestly think there will be a war? Russia has no money to get into a war. There is a reason why it didn't contest America too much with Syria when it stationed people in Kurdish area.
During my school's walkout, i interviewed students on what we should do to fix it. Here are the results:
6 liberal sided answers
2 conservative sided answers
11 neutral answers
Which state
Morgan Roof goes to a school in my district, actually just down the road from mine. Literally just a week before this, in my school’s group chat about the walkout, many were defending her against someone who called her out, saying she can’t be held accountable for the sins of her brother. While she definitely cannot be harassed for what her brother did, that doesn’t excuse her from being a complete tool
"I need a little extra D" Phil is sneaking in all kinds of jokes, all kinds
Anyone else feel like Phil plugs hot ones so much because he wants the show to notice him and invite him on. I would love to see PhillyD on hot ones
Jose Munoz I'm pretty sure he was on the show already.
LikedMyOwnComment He hasn't, the only youtubers I know of that have been on hot ones are Filthy Frank and H3H3
at my school they strongly encouraged us to not walk out bc we were in the middle of a snow storm but instead they had 17 people around the school (14 students 3teachers) all representing one of the victims and they were silent the whole day and then a moment of silence at 10 instead of a walk out. we also had small activities in all of our classes to spread kindness and a “17 acts of kindness” thing (which was dumb i don’t think if you hold a door for someone they won’t shoot up a school) and at the end of the day we had an assembly with state troopers where we could ask questions and the troopers were terrible at answering but the questions that people asked got really good points across and i think it showed how much students care and that we want stuff done about it and i felt like people heard us rather than just thinking we’re dumb kids
also i forgot to mention we still had one kid walk out and idk how he survived the weather was so bad
Scary times we live in. :-(
9-11 Was scary. Talk to your grandparents about WWII if you wanna hear scarier. This is a walk in the park.
Joshua McCoskrie I believe he was talking about country's blaming one another.
But but i thought some study said we’re living in the most peaceful timeline and there’s nothing to be afraiiid of.... they weren’t *wronggggg* were they??? 😢
Welcome to life man...

i feel like saying "no offense" after something racist makes it more offensive than intended
tehfek if you want to marginalize saying something you think is racist you might consider "not trying to sound racist" not "no offense" lol
Don't worry she's been arrested
b07rivera 81 people seem to care. And you seem caring enough to comment :)
"Not trying to sound racist" is the smarter dodgy brother of "no offense" both are scumbags though :)
Insanity true it is but I meant in this case it doesn't help
I have to disagree with Phil on the sign restriction. When I was in high school we had feminist protest signs and confederate flag posters both removed for not being approved 24 hours in advance. I think it’s a common practice by schools and if the student didn’t get the permission to display it then it is to be enforced. It’s like this at my college now too.
it's just easier for the school to spurt rules they made, even if it doenst follow common law, because most people don't know what their laws are.
I think his issue was more on how the school selectively implemented that rule. There is no way all of the people in that protest had every single sign or poster approved beforehand, so having that one counter-protest kid be the only one to have action taken against him just makes it seem awfully selective.
Then why didn’t they shut down the walk out...?
deejay tompkins cause they got permission
deejay tompkins maybe they were informed about it before-hand.
Our school had teachers walk out with us and made sure to make sure that the students were safe! The superintendent made sure to email all of our parents saying that they supported the walk out and are going to do their best to help allow for a safe walk out.
i have to commend rhianna for mentioning men as domestic violence victims, usually when victims are mentioned they only talk about the women and children.
yet here we see rhianna giving men a mention in there as well.
every victim of domestic abuse deserves to be heared and mentioned , so it's good that someone in the public eye talks about all of them , not just the 2 that are always talked about.
well done young lady, i applaud you for this.
I was getting ready to type an angry comment, then I realized you said "commend" not "condemn"
I have a personal thing to talk about with the walkout. So my school also had the rule that we weren’t allowed to go outside, but we were allowed to go in the gym for 17 minutes of silence. When we were supposed to go at 10, it was our lunch time, but still a lot of people wanted to go to the gym. The principal & Vice principal had blocked the cafeteria exits before we could go to the gym which everyone found weird, and when one girl tried to go past them she was ordered to sit back down. The principal then announced that no one was to go to the gym to walk. A lot of people who actually cared about the cause were outraged and very mad at the principal and vice principal. My friend then told me that she had algebra class before lunch, and her teacher let the kids make posters about gun violence. She then said that the principal came into the classroom and ripped down all of the posters. (A lot of other people who had that teacher can confirm this actually happened) I’m still so confused as to why the principal had such a huge problem with us just going to the gym, and why he had a problem with the whole poster thing.
If you're not allowed doesn't mean you can't break out
Wait... Your ALGEBRA teacher allows you and helps you made POLITICAL posters AT SCHOOL... And no one sees a problem??
Christian Duque teachers can’t impose their own political opinions on students but that does not mean that they can’t allow the students to express their political views
I understand that. It was a special day and it's not like the Algebra teacher was forcing them to make posters. The teacher was probably like "Since you couldn't go to the gym, I guess you can make a poster in here as long as it's not violent or graphic".
Christian Duque were did it say they helped them?
The Shaggy defense haha! I wish I knew what percentage of your audience actually knows that reference.
probably about 95% seen as its got 86m views on youtube
But she caught me on camera
Because it was BOOOM-bastic!
Tim Evans No, Shaggy (not from Scooby Doo but rather a musician) had a song called "It Wasn't Me".
It wasn't me you're talking about, so the percentage goes down?
(It's still a good chill song IMO, even after all these years)
Our government in the uk have a habit of making a big fuss over something to distract the country from something they’re doing that they don’t want to draw attention to. The whole thing seems sketchy.
doo wop, yeah like Brexit which is more important than this where we have to make a plan on how we shall leave. Let the police come up with a result on the how, where and when before we can start this finger pointing
Making a big fuss is a pretty normal response to a chemical attack on your own soil
SpookyKettle the fact that it’s a chemical attack in be first place is worrying, how does it benefit russia to make such an obvious move then deny it? Call me a conspiracist but I reckon it was done by the British government 🤔
doo wop
its quite outlandish to say that the uk government was behind it. ruling out whatever evidence we have now and just looking at history, russia is known for putting its sketchy behaviour in the spotlight. im not saying the uk government is innocent but its secret services are always extremely private and keep out of the public eye. putin could possibly be trying to send a message with this attack , but who knows, im certainly no expert.
SpookyKettle it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Russia was behind it but our government doesn’t usually act so rash. I realise it’s quite a unique situation and maybe it’s just May’s style of doing things but not even giving Russia the chance to analyse the agent before kicking out the diplomats seems odd. The whole thing just feels iffy to me

Of course! we should obviously allow the Russian carte blanche to kill our people. after all... its only a single man. a single woman. a single child. a single village, a single town, a single city.
Most people can't remember politicians screwing them over last year, so I doubt they remember when the lights went out over Europe.

Painfully true though
Our school allowed the protest. There were some grown adults who came to our school with an American flag and signs protesting the protest at my school. It was all peaceful though.
And most of these school children are not used as political pawns?
Audrey 100 my school allowed it to. I don’t know if any students stayed, but I know that many did go. Very peaceful, although our hands were freezing off
usucdik - You seem to know a lot about these people based on OP's three sentences.
usucdik "People waving an American flag are idiots".
I mean that's fair, but highly unfortunate they don't understand why these kids are walking out in the first place. The kids are thinking of their friends who were killed or could potentially be killed without reason at their school. But these adult protesters are too concerned with their ideas that these kids want guns taken away and have no idea what they're doing. It's quite tragic when people can't see eye to eye on what's mostly (though not entirely) a moral issue.
I didn't do the walkout because over half the students at my school in California only walked out to get out of class. My school along with allowing the walkout at lunch had a way for students to contact representatives. So, I found wrote a letter instead.
i nearly shat my pants when you said IRA i dont think you realise that it was a group in ireland (Irish Republican Army) and when you said i was like what in the name of god are they doingn with Russia.

Am I the only one who had a sudden involuntary reaction of wtf! when he said IRA
I had the same reaction... I had to think twice. Either it was an unfortunate coincidence or someone was trying to be ironic. I am guessing the latter is the case.
True. My first reaction was essentially "Wait, now ireland is also involved in this?"
Tim Evans Good luck enforcing that. The organizations are from different countries.
Yes my first thought was wtf has Ireland got to do with this
Up the ra
I am actually from sayreville high school, and I have to say that yes, there was multiple people that left school. There were also around 50 of us who walked into the auditorium who are now facing some form of detention. Me and a bunch of my friends also created hundreds of post it notes with the number 17 and posted it all around our school. I do believe what Rosa did was important and good, but it should aslo be known that she is not the only one in our school who cared
I have a friend that stated if she had kids she would have "locked them away in a closet with a gun" during the protest to "show that guns don't kill people" and that the kids "were just wasting their time and being dumb and useless". She responded to anyone criticizing her with "fake news".
2:57 ok soooo. The son did what he did. We see the sister is the way she is. Sooooo who in the hell are the parents? They say the apple don't fall far from the tree, and if both siblings are that twisted. The parents must be closet mass murders.
Like holy shit, what must their household be like.

FatKidWithFudge Either they are horrible ppl or they are horribly ashamed. Remember the Menendez brothers?
I think it's more cause and effect.
That the actions her brother had resulted in her life getting shitty because she had to take all the blame and shit from everyone growing up and it made her this way, and now she's too deep in to change or rather, no one has pointed out to her that her views are wrong and not everyone is an asshole. Instead she keeps getting it re-affirmed that the world just sucks.
Of course I could be reading too much into it, she could just have had shitty parents and all that.

I'm sure you think you sound deep and poetic, but it comes off as edgy af.
My school made the walkout a school wide event. Student who did not support the walkout were welcome to stay in class. We were allowed to bring our own poster and had different speakers.
I agree completely, bringing marijuana to school obviously never a good idea, and a bigoted pretty trash person... But come on Philly, I'm a 19 year old girl and I carried pepper spray both in high school and now in college. I know many of my male classmates carried pocket knifes. "Weapons" seems harsh to me. Both are very common, and I don't think either are unreasonable if they are kept in the bag while on campus. If you're a person who walks home, uses public transportation, or just hangs out late, i think its a safety thing, especially as a teenager. Again "weapons" seems misleading, I don't see it likely that either are for anything but a safety precaution, in most situations, even one involving a racist.
I don’t know about pocket knives but I agree with you on pepper spray I’ve got some myself
In high school I carried a pocket knife for work. I agree with you, it isn't a big deal.
Bob, she probably carried the knife and pepper spray to defend herself against people like you who want to punish and harass her for a family members crimes. I've seen TONS of gun control supporter crazies post the exact same thing, but surprise surprise they aren't arrested or investigated.
I carried a knife and pepper spray to high school every day. I was (am) gay, and picked on regularly, and it made me feel safer knowing I could defend myself if they tried to really hurt me this time. It also helped me take the abuse and get through my days, oddly. But actually I started carrying because someone older than me, a random stranger, tried to start a fight with me for literally no reason after I got off the bus and was walking home one day.
Can you imagine the backlash the administration would get for arresting a girl for carrying a pepper spray and knife if this was college? It's funny how a simple label (racist) can change most people's minds.
if your intent and perspective is racist, bigot and pessimistic on something for the positive then yes, a pocket knife is a weapon, if you carry it for defense you can carry for offense and base on are statement it can go really bad for anyone around her. never compare yourself to her.
Honestly Rihanna is such a boss.

Only 6 of us at my school walked out. We were told we could not attend prom, that we would be in ISS or expelled. Students were at the doors (to stop us) but told us they would not. Our vice principal came out and stood with us. We have received no punishment.

I would use instagram a lot more IF THEY BROUGHT BACK THE CHRONOLOGICAL TIMELINE. WHY DID YOU RUIN A PERFECTLY GOOD THING?!
From a user standpoint, there is no fucking point to show posts based on an algorithm, especially if incidents seem to prove that it doesn't even work properly.
MrWaffelLP weird my instagram timeline is still chronological. Are u sure u cant change it in settings?
John Daly curse you for giving me false hope :D I had checked back when I got the app and didn't know there had been such a feature, once again after I learned of it, and did so again after your comment, wondering if I had overlooked it. That may still be so, but even on the third comb through I found nothing.
The problem with schools is that they try to teach us what to think, not how to think.

Don't you mean "protect"?

Don't you mean "protects"?

Are you saying that the students wanting to march can't think for themselves? You know this how?? These are high schoolers, dude. Pretty sure they can think for themselves.
Lee Jordan How ironic that not only was it just a typo which has nothing to do with his intelligence, he also meant to say protests.
The school is not supposed to hold your hand when it comes to free thinking, you learn that yourself. The school provides you the basic building blocks to further expand your knowledge on your own time if you choose to do so. Either you're too young to realize how stupid your comment is, or you're too stupid in general to realize that critical thinking is something that is very hard to teach and a difficult concept for young students to learn in the time teachers are allotted in each teaching session. Keep in mind that they also have to instill basic knowledge and lessons in you so that you're not ignoarant enough to actually think things like "Communism is actually a viable form of government"
15:25 "Shaggy defense" LMAO!
My school didn't even allow students to say the word "gun" in our speeches, and many members of the student council has their speeches rewritten. Our protest was forced inside due to "weather" (snow on the ground) but those concerns were bullshit as we had a fire drill the day after (today) with snow still on the ground. Kids who walked out anyways were silenced by teachers when they tried to speak, and were threatened with suspensions, both in school and out of school. In the end, no one was punished, but the announcement of the punishment was incredibly dismissive of the students concerns, treating the like ornery delinquents who just wanted to get out of school, calling them disrespectful.
I know you get a lot of people saying that "you should mention this" and "you should mention that" in the comments, but I want to ask you to mention my school in the next video to bring awareness to this censorship of student speech and utter disrespect coming from adults to students with genuine concerns. My school is Ellington High School.
To be fair..Most students just wanted a day off. Lets not fool our selves here. We all went to school and everyone of us went trough non sense and was happy to get a day off for "protesting" .
Walking out of school warrants suspension. That's what would happen any other day, I have no idea why anybody thinks that just because it's "organized" that somehow means the law isn't the law. Kids HAVE to be in school during the day. If you don't want to be then wait until the legal age and drop out.
Your school is smart, these walkout are nothing but to make kids feel like there adults when there not. One day your smoking weed and failing algebra the next day you think you deserve a voice on school safety?? Hun it doesn’t work like that.
mate you really can't complain about censorship when Antifa and other radical leftist groups literally send death threats to people who don't agree with them and behave violently to get talks shut down
I feel like I need to go hug my family before Britain decides to go to war
I-am PrOxY Go to war? Really? May and co have heavily cut our armed forces and given themselves massive pay rises. So I think war is highly unlikely. Hence why we are only sending reinforcements to NATO countries near Russia.
I would know nothing without you, Phil.
Sammy Jones me too
That's quite sad.
You still know nothing Sam Jone
Probably should stop kids from walking out of school. We would avoid comments like this if we did.
I'm obviously kidding. I'm 25 years old and Connor, it's Jones. The internet is the worst lol.
First ad I’ve seen on an episode in a while congrats P
Oof, I'm lucky to go to such a lenient school. Two teachers told those of us who walked out they were proud of us and even the security guard just told us to stay safe on our way out.
the sister of a racist murderer is against the walkouts?????? im shocked (sarcasm)
daimon hellstrom what?
daimon hellstrom ?
daimon hellstrom
Um, you wanna re-phrase that chief?
daimon hellstrom you should always read your comment aloud before posting it dude. You know..so it actually make sense
daimon hellstrom -- Was that even English?
And quite often kid's end up getting their racism from their parents; the people they grew up in the same household with. So no it's not wrong to not be surprised that one child displaying such racism has a sibling that is clearly also racist. It's just being realistic. Stop living in lala land. As long as they don't automatically judge and poorly treat the person for another member's actions *BEFORE* they display the same mindset -- there's nothing wrong with a statement like that and there's no reason to be triggered by it.
Sounds like someone has a guilty conscience. LOL
What about the bridge/overpass that fell on those cars today in Florida?
QuiteDecent I think he is probably waiting to cover it as the full story emerges. It's not consistent, but I think he doesn't want to become outdated within seconds of the video being launvhed so he waits for a more concrete story to get his facts straight. At least, that's what I notice
I was reading the CNN international headline right as you were listing "energy, nuclear, commercial facilities..." And it freaked me out for a second.
Can we not world war 3?
The great peace shall end with one big catastrophe.
Ffvii remake needs to happen first.
If ff7 remake was the benchmark then I don't think I would be worried about seeing massive war in my lifetime.
The Democrats are trying to start WWIII just to get rid of Trump. That's how deranged they are
Aww, you're no fun. :[
God people can't math too good today. Ninja definitely only gained like 9-10K subs. Way to go Kotaku... adding a digit shows such quality journalism🤦
Which is still insane to think about though
Absolutely! Not looking to discount Ninja's achievements. Hell, they averaged more concurrent viewers than an NHL game according to this: esportsobserver.com/ninja-drake-fortnite-smashes-twitch-record/
While 9-10k isn't much to 90k, that's still a shit ton of subs. That's $27-30k for at least this month (Since from popular he sounds to be, I believe popular streamers get 3 of the $5 of the sub), on top of whatever he had and whatever else he made from donations.
Hey Phil. Also worth noting that somebody at the same exact high school (AC Flora) was arrested on the exact same day for bringing a loaded firearm to school.
This in no way negates what roof's sister did but it is interesting to me that this doesn't get mentioned as much
I was present at the time and also heard the fire alarm going of 0:58
i was like where tf is the vid and then i saw this and my withdrawals went away
So ... the school has the right to censor your protest by forcing you to submit any messages/signs ahead of time, allowing them to deny them? That's not a protest, that's advertising.
Philip, as a Sarasota County Schools Student, in Sarasota Florida, I felt that the walk out pushed aside anyone who wants a push towards aiding mental health in the United States. I live in a state with a ranking of #43 nationally for access to care, and #41 for youth access to care. Mental health is a serious issue that is being swept under the rug. I want to host a sit in in my high school, but I am a senior and I don’t want to jeopardize the college acceptance that I have received. I feel alone and ignored. I’ve been insulted for not walking out with the rest of my school when our county organized the walk out. I don’t know what to do. One school in our county was going to force students to walk out, but they canceled due to a student committing suicide the day before. Whether it was related to the walk out i’m unsure, but it’s just another life lost to depression in my generation. I’ve had friends who have attempted suicide on campus, luckily they were stopped in time. It’s a real problem, and noone seems to give a f*** what do I do?
I would like to redact my statement on the suicide, as i did not confirm it ahead of time. There is no news about it , i should have confirmed it, it may be a rumor but it may also not yet be released. I apologize if either are the case.
Two things. One, any university that would rescind your offer of acceptance (or choose not to give you one in the first place) because of your involvement in a peaceful political rally is not one you want to go to.
Two - gun control and mental health go hand in hand. Those suicides you talk about? Because it is so easy to get access to a gun it is so much easier for a person to commit suicide. Studies have shown that even putting small road blocks in the way of people wanting to commit suicide is often enough to dissuade them entirely. So gun control, more than stopping mass shooters, will save a huge number of lives just by making suicide that little bit more difficult.
+Lane Heyen Guns aren't the only way for someone to kill themselves. It's just easier for some people since it's "quick and painless." Nothing a belt, overdosing on drugs, a knife and other objects can't fix though.
I'm on the side of mental health here, though I do believe guns are an important part of the argument, mental health is a lot more important.
Lance Heyen banning an assault rifle wont cure my friends depression, or prevent them from swallowing pills, or give more money to mental health facilities, or reach out to students in need. My point is that guns are being used as a scape goat for mental health, and I feel shut down by others because I believe that way. Florida passed new legislation increasing the buying age from 18-21.... that was almost a week before the walk out. Trust me, no one I know who are thinking about it will be using an Ar-14 to leave this world. It’s that lie that pushes our need under the rug. Thanks for the response though, I appreciate it.
Perhaps if you frame the event for mental health awareness in general rather than as a reaction to the shooting, it would not only be acceptable but will also probably make colleges want you more. Maybe wait a little bit until after the March is done and go for it.
regarding the snapchat or insta question, i personally like insta stories more. i use snapchat more often, however, bc i’ve made it a friends-only platform whereas insta is a public account. despite that, i like that for insta stories, u could now save it as highlights on ur profile, and there’s an archive you can look back to once the 24 hours are up. this lets me know who’s seen my story even if they’ve expired. insta stories are rlly doing their best to keep up with snapchat, and competition is beneficial to the consumers in this case. we have better options to choose from
Philip DeFranco, I wasn’t a student, but I went to see what they did with it. Their school handled the whole thing quite practically; they had to have a note from their parents. The sit in felt right, but the march/speeches were weird. They marched to a park (not the courthouse they had planned on), and had speakers talk. Someone read a rather silly poem explaining that we shouldn’t have gun rights because some people are too clumsy to own a gun. A few local politicians got up to give vague speeches that included one proposed idea (lowering the allowed capacity to 10) between the three of them. Some students got up to share their fears, and a few experiences with gun violence (including a boy who had contemplated shooting himself). The dynamic between the kids and the adults was weird. The adults lead chants and seem to have provided signs. The vibe was weird.
I got a fair amount of it on video, but my battery died before the student testimonials: th-cam.com/video/jDKuusp36O4/w-d-xo.html
Doesn't sound like there was much unity with that march then, which is a going trend these days.
and yet the media would have it portrayed as everyone is in unity and they are not, so, its deceptive.
Last time I came this early my wife got pregnant.
James S but you're a kissless 12 yo
fake news
The previous twitch viewer record was not held by Dr Disrespect it was a League of Legends streamer called Tyler1 who had over 400k on his return but twitch ignored it because of his notoriety. Ninja still smashed any record for individual stream but the Dr never held the record.
Curse of Annubis Wrong, Doc definitely did hold the record, but not for long. Tyler1 came back and beat it by ~13k viewers.
If you’re going to try to correct someone get your damn facts right.
From what I've heard, Doc had more unique logins, which is what Twitch bases the number on, which makes sense.
How sad is it that Ninja only had 600k with drake with him lol that blows my mind that tyler1 by himself got 400k
Drake smashed it. Not ninja
Bryan Lutz The stream also started around 1am US eastern time. That’s literally like the worst time to stream it terms of viewership. Had it been earlier, it would’ve got far more than 600k.
I still use the Snapchat story over the Instagram story, but mainly because I don't have all of my contacts on Instagram, but I do on SC. Not only that, but people seem to post more personal stuff on SC because it goes away after 24 hrs and nothing is permanent without the person knowing who screenshotted it and what not.
I walked out of school yesterday, and let me be perfectly clear: I don't give a shit about school shootings. Everyday in school is hell. I get insulted, cussed at, shoved at lockers, harassed. If adults and students really cared about school shootings they'd do something about how toxic schools are. It's all a joke bc people don't really do anything about why schools are getting shot at in the first place. They are shit/hell holes, and bad things happen at shit holes. I walked out just because I didn't want to be in class, and so did most people I know.
Students and teachers know how toxic schools are. They just don't give a shit. Then someone kills themselves or shoots up a school and people say, "I wish I would have known. I would have done something about it." They know. It's sad. That's why I'm not impressed about these kids speaking out about guns, because my question is, "Where were you before? Were you the bully? And if not, why did you allow it to happen?" It's only an issue when they get shot at, but if someone is shit on everyday they don't care.
Oscar Wilde good point
Oscar Wilde bruh just hang in their later in life those people gonna be shallow lonely unhappy fucks cause they cant act like a idiot anymore and you could laugh at em back
I thought Ninja on the thumbnail was an old picture of Crankgameplays
Cyndi Angulo Oh good, I wasn't the only one who thought it was the former Blue Boi
Ethan the adorable bean (｡・ｗ・｡)
Cyndi Angulo haha
Some kid today killed himself on livefeed for 4chan with a shotgun. He was anonymous, so I don't know who he is, but I did unfortunately see the video (because the internet is fucked up). He waved goodbye and then just blew his brains out in his room. At first I was skeptical, which is fine, but I wasn't shocked. And I'm not bragging to not have been moved. But is it a bad thing that people are insensitive to it? As anyone who would have done it for a response would have been greeted by nothing but emotionless people knowing that, despite it being horrible, people just kill themselves? Is this absolute desensitization of the new globally connected word a bad thing, or are we removing negative responses in return of better knowing the horrors of this world, and not being scared of them?
Sorry if that doesn't make sense, I'm still thinking about it.
Dylan Wagner it is a tough thing to think about, but this interconnected world of ours is beginning to show the internet's massive downsides
Dylan Wagner one jfc that must have been a bloody (no pun intended) traumatic to see and I would agree to you that the world has become more desensitised to violence, but tbh for you it might be shock which is why you aren’t feeling much atm, the fact you are still processing it makes it seem likely
"but this interconnected world of ours is beginning to show the internet's massive downsides"
If anything it shows how soft you've all become. I'ts not been a long time since people were faced with brutal scenes on a daily basis. Millions of people saw worse than this just in WWII, but also all the other wars, they didn't all break down a cry every time they saw someone shot, or disembowelled or exploded into little pieces or chopped up in medieval sword/axe/spear fighting. You do know that there was a war called "the 100 years war", right? do you think people were breaking down every time they saw someone die? or until just about 100 years ago even in "civilised" countries, infant and child mortality was sky-high, yet entire nations weren't paralysed by people wailing in the streets. 50 years of relatively easy times and people in civilised countries have forgotten what the daily struggle used to look like.
It was on TH-cam live with his friends watching
Seyi Ogunbusola its not shock. I've just seen enough shit to not be hurt or moved by it. Instead I just wanted to analyze him
Since spring break was on the lock out date my hs had an organized lockout:))
After the ridiculous Snapchat update I completely stopped posting stories on it and moved over to Instagram
Ishfaq Halim Same
Same here
same, and they still havent fixed it even with all the complaints
This whole thing is legitimately terrifying. I didn't sign up for another World War or a Cold War.
Miss Sera no biggie
You kind of did if you're a 18 year old male in the U.S
TheTitanian I'm a 18 yr old UK woman and this shit is really getting to people here. We knew an escalation would happen and we knew that the world would have to give a response on what they thought. However, the pace of events is scary.
Miss Sera Keep Calm & Carry On
R.I.P Snapchat....
babygirl xoxo It has been RIP since they changed their damn UI to accommodate all those ads
babygirl xoxo Which would be a good thing. Snapchat is stupid.
The problem is, there needs to be a consensus that fair treatment is alive and well and the fact that there is a Bill stating that between UK and Russia there requires a joint investigation to get both sides, and obviously UK is not willing for this to happen, what are they hiding? The Idea that just because a group of nations came out and sided with alleged hearsay does not negate the fact that it does in fact seem to be quite one sided.
