RUSH EXCERPT:
HOGG: “I‘m a survivor of the park when shooting that happened in 2018. 17 of my classmates and administrators were slain by a 19-year-old who was able to legally own and I – semi automatic rifle despite making multiple threads I guess my high school. I come here today because as a generation, I think am only gen z on the stage, our generation has been told to run, hide, and fight to survive a school shooter. That is the policy for safety in schools. Politicians admitting they cannot protect us and will not protect us and putting the burden on students, on children, teachers, and administrators instead of protecting children and their teachers. If they will not do anything for us, we will have to take them head on. Run, hide, fight. They tell us the fight will I got used to them. We are not fighting against each other on issues like gun violence. It was about time we started fighting together for a common purpose. They tell us the hide. We are not hiding under desk and hiding it away from the requirement we have to protect the next generation from this issue and hiding from.”
