    If not for great journalists and the many extraordinary women who shared their stories, would be sitting in that audience at the Dolby Theatre. And Hollywood would have no problem with it.

    Google is experiencing its own Susan Fowler moment. It's past time for Google to address the problem.

    This is the first of many steps we need to take to address the gun violence epidemic.

    I am calling for the repeal of the Dickey Amendment, which restricts the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from researching gun violence and its effects on public health.

    You know what pisses me off, Dana? That an 19 year old can legally purchase a semi automatic weapon, and murder my classmates. And it’s your association, the NRA, that buys off politicians’ votes. that’s what pisses me off.

    Teenagers piss me off.

    Young people have helped lead all our great movements. How inspiring to see it again in so many smart, fearless students standing up for their right to be safe; marching and organizing to remake the world as it should be. We've been waiting for you. And we've got your backs.

    I am optimistic about what they will achieve, but it is at an unbearable cost. An entire generation is being traumatized. Anyone who is complicit should pray that when they are old and vulnerable again, these kids will show them much more compassion than they were ever given.

    This is so important. Children coming of age now are dealing with a unique confluence of factors, including social media, that are impossible for my generation (and older) to truly understand. They will change the world because they have no choice. It's an incredible burden.

    A thought on 17 yo's: It strikes me how unique their generation is: Born & raised in the 9/11 era, into a nation at war their entire lives, and already witnessed 19 of 33 deadliest shootings in America since WWII. Must shape/be shaping worldviews in ways we don't fully grasp yet.

    People discounting what these young people from Parkland are capable of simply because they’re kids have a deep & ahistorical understanding of how some of our most meaningful social movements have unfolded. Students have always been at the forefront & often are leading the way.

    when you have people mocking teenage victims of gun violence and suggesting on national tv they are "crisis actors"--one of the dumbest and most offensive conspiracy theories out there--maybe it's time to acknowledge it's not "both sides." maybe that's reality, not opinion.

    My family is burying my cousin today because of your inaction and cowardice and this is what you have to say. You are an evil, pathetic, and worthless stain on humanity

    Finally, Liddle’ Adam Schiff, the leakin’ monster of no control, is now blaming the Obama Administration for Russian meddling in the 2016 Election. He is finally right about something. Obama was President, knew of the threat, and did nothing. Thank you Adam!

    17 of my classmates are gone. That’s 17 futures, 17 children, and 17 friends stolen. But you’re right, it always has to be about you. How silly of me to forget.

    Very sad that the FBI missed all of the many signals sent out by the Florida school shooter. This is not acceptable. They are spending too much time trying to prove Russian collusion with the Trump campaign - there is no collusion. Get back to the basics and make us all proud!

    Parkland students who survived the massacre are making it clear: they want to "put a badge of shame" on any lawmaker who accepts money from the . They are going to make the NRA as toxic as the GOP made ACORN. Let's see if the NRA thinks it can defeat these kids.

    . ! Your People of the Year are already here!

    The brave Parkland students are doing something astonishing. They are instantly preempting disinfo & gaslighting by posting testimony, evidence, photos. And they have rallied to specifically to oppose the NRA. This is courageous grieving; they are warriors fighting for all of us.

    17 people are dead. 17 of my classmates. This is how you fucking respond? How much of a heartless dick do you have to be to tweet something like this. And btw as we were running for our lives we were calling 911 to the point that they told us not to anymore.

    How do you know when a movement has staying power? When it starts being merchandised, even here in Taiwan. at Eslite Xinyi 信義誠品書店 (Interesting to note that it’s being used for women’s issues in general, not just sexual harassment)
