One of the students involved in the incident, Alana Trissel, 17, spoke with The Associated Press afterward, saying the conversation "took a turn for the worst" after Lucas revealed his gun.

"Since a state legislator had shown a weapon, I felt all the more powerless," she said. "I felt scared. I felt alone. I was timid and almost petrified with fear."

Sheeple love being sheeple.  I like the Rep's response when the student said nothing about that makes me feel safe.

He said "Those are feelings.  I'm talking about facts.

Sheeple love feelings.

I don't have enough power. You need to give up your power so I can have power over you.

I feel powerless every time i check my bank balances.

All those with millions need to share a good chunk of it with my account. 

If you don't, it's your fault that I feel scared. I feel alone. I am timid and almost petrified with fear.

AOC wants all Americans to share their wealth.

I say you go first AOC.  Lead by example.

But something tells me you won't.  Lead by example is something foreign to you.

Sounds like she needs a gun too. But too bad she's 17 and in order to obtain a pistol, you have to be 21.  Unless her state allows open carry of a rifle/shotty.

Wtf is wrong with that kid?

Liberal parents
Liberal teachers/school
Liberal media
Liberal friends
Liberal government leaders
Liberal belief system

Just a very liberal indoctrination in general along with constant reinforcement of that ideology.  A product of their environment.

I could be wrong, but that's my wager.
