Parkland’s Kyle Kashuv says March For Our Lives protesters, students don’t have ‘clear cut solution’
One of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students, Kyle Kashuv, took on the #MarchForOurLives activists and his fellow students, stating that they’re heavily biased and for ignoring reality.
“I talked to so many marchers and they don’t have a clear-cut solution,” Kashuv said during an appearance on Fox News Saturday.
“And it pains me not to see the government being held accountable for their failures. I don’t see anyone blaming Sheriff Scott Israel for failing to do what he was supposed to do.”
“In the March itself, the March’s website, [it’s] listed how they want to ban AR-15s and I don’t agree with that,” he said, citing a link to a petition to “ban the sale of assault weapons” used in recent mass shootings in America.
“It’s clear that the people on the [TIME] cover are pushing for gun reform and they’re pushing that they don’t want to see weapons of war on the streets,” Kashuv said.
The article stated that the students in Parkland, Florida “painted the NRA and their allies as the mortal enemies,” something Kashuv doesn’t agree with.
“There were so many levels [in which] the government failed: the police force failed, the FBI failed. And simply representing this as the NRA issue is so counter-productive because we could be doing real legislation to make sure this won’t happen again,” he said.
“Here we are pointing a finger at the NRA, which practically hasn’t done anything,” he added.
“I saw this [march] as extremely anti-GOP,” Kashuv said. “One of the biggest causes of this march is to be anti-Republican.”
Kashuv has been vocal since the tragedy, but was left out from the recent TIME Magazine cover featuring the student activists.
