My point is -- these boys do not suffer from ignorance -- as defined as 'not knowing.' If anything, they just might suffer from entitlement.

Catholic education in the Cincinnati area has an outstanding history. Of course, these schools are not teaching hatred and bigotry, but these kids are picking it up somewhere.

Those boys, engaged in pack behavior, have their faces all over the internet. That will never go away.

This behavior is not only appalling -- it is heartbreaking on so many, many levels. Where oh where is this country going?
I'll have to disagree...with the underlined above.

These kids were bused to this demonstration and it was obviously a condoned field trip...by the school.

And then there's the flaming hypocrisy of those who said kids who had friends killed and were shot at during the Stoneman Douglas tragedy...had no business speaking out against gun violence.

Just simply amazing.
