Thanks to Parkland Teens, One Number Will Now Be Associated With Marco Rubio: $1.05

[Demovictory9]

Many students at the March for Our Lives rallies across the country were wearing a price tag that read $1.05. The reason? That’s how much they say each student is worth to Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio. The organizers of the march say they got the number by calculating the amount the National Rifle Association donated to Rubio, divided by the number of students in Florida.

“So, this is how much we’re worth to the Florida government,” explained Stoneman Douglas freshman Lauren Hogg. “It’s our price tag.” At a Feb. 21 town hall event on gun violence, Rubio unashamedly defended accepting money from the NRA. “There’s money on both sides of every issue in America,” Rubio said. “I will always accept the help of anyone who agrees with my agenda.”

3. I will always accept the help of anyone who agrees with my agenda.

Here, Marco - I've corrected it for you: "I always agree with the agenda of anyone I accept help from."

4. These kids are kicking the Republicans asses

I think the Dems should start taking notes

5. I think Democratsic representatives should start making friends with them

And I do NOT mean like on Facebook. I mean out there in real life.

These kids were shot at, lost real friends in real carnage. If the politicians can take photo ops with soldiers who have served in combat, they can take photos of American high school kids who survived a deadly armed assault in which they weren't even armed.
