well one of the last posts on the previous page mentioned trump. it asked a question and i addressed it so whats your problem
helps to read the thread you post in
Why do you let Trump trigger you? Because the things he says end up having an effect in the real world, via the media.
So a member posted about trump, and you have to screeeee to everyone about it?
spotted.

Just like the photoshopped pic of the parkland girl tearing up the constitution..

An armband and a pose makes a fascist, not.
I never knew so many adults could get so upset by what a kid says.
Keep giving him that attention he seeks.

The kid is a loser in a world that worships losers.
I am more outraged at the MSM exploiting this kid for ratings and political motives...
Once the fame wears off, this kid will probably look back in anger at how he was used...
Clashin_Creepers: Yeah, but who owns the copyright for this video?
davisgreen111: David Hogg me
ImDavidsMom: David, it's me, your mother. I can't believe you put this video up! We talked about this. I'm sorry everyone but this isn't why we sent him to school. David, this production value is utter #. Why are we paying that tuition if you aren't going to take anything from those classes and put them into your films?
We are withdrawing you this week and you can go back to public school since you don't want to act like a real director.

It’s him.
He started posting around a year ago.
For a fascist, he sure dislikes hitler.
Oh and trump.
He comes across as an awkward left leaning teenager.

Is that why the Browns have so many fans?

That's my take as well.
I found this thread last night, and for the first time started looking into David Hogg. I had resisted doing so since the shooting, because to me he is just a 17 year old kid with big ideas and no forethought into the consequences of them. But then CNN stepped in... and stayed in... and this actually became an issue.
I watched most of the video in the OP (slow news day anyway) and wondered the same thing others have been asking: where is the evidence that davisgreen111 is indeed David Hogg? Well, maybe because he says so?
davisgreen111 posted this video 7 months ago on Reddit. Note the YUGE copyright watermark - David Hogg 2017:
And the following conversation ensued, which led to this portion of the conversation (condensed for clarity; go to the link for full comments)
Clashin_Creepers: Yeah, but who owns the copyright for this video?
davisgreen111: David Hogg me
So 7 months ago, well before any shooting in Parkland, davisgreen111 admitted to being David Hogg. Now, maybe he was falsely claiming the video, but after the shooting wouldn't someone have spoken up and denied it if it were untrue? I have not found where either Hogg himself or davisgreen111 have disputed that they are one and the same.
davisgreen111 comes across to me like a typical confused teenager. He makes a lot of dumb comments, posts some stupid memes (he actually asked a guy for his permission to use the girl with the gun pic for a meme), and has some wild ideas. Par for the course for any 17 year old. I did notice the rant about the SAT scores - the guy claims a 4.25 GPA, which is not even possible in a college setting, meaning he was an A+ student in high school... but was still unprepared to take the SAT? Heck, that's a major discussion topic on the uselessness of public school right there.
But now this confused, angry young man who is an amateur journalist in his mind, frustrated because he can't seem to get into college to follow his career choice, is witness to a horrible school shooting and gets his shot at fame on CNN. He has obviously never even held a gun, and yet all he has to do to secure his future is push the one thing the MSM wants more than anything: gun control!
At least, I think he thinks that's his ticket. In truth, he's just a tool to be used up and discarded. He will be left with no college, no other skills, and his name forever connotated with gun control advocacy of the most irrational degree. Yeah, there's a bright future.
There are 7 levels of Hell... but there is also a basement beneath them all, reserved for those who would harm a child. In that basement, there is a pit reserved for those who would harm a child for a political agenda. I am coming to think there is also a sign in front of that pit: "Welcome to CNN".

Low blow coming from an Oilers fan, or Leafs, or whoever
Anyways, the world is just an upside down place. The human ideal vs. the human reality couldn't be more incongruent.

Just the opposite.
A user named 'lauren_hoggs' posted a few hours after the comment (in August) that it wasn't true because she was his real sister. That account was made last March, the reply was within 6 hours, and Lauren is actually the name of David Hogg's sister in real life.
This thread is based on a hoax, one with really crappy internet detective work. They never scrolled down and saw that comment.

No, someone made a profile that said 'ImDavidsMom' and Lauren responded that it was untrue (that the user was actually his mom) and she would know because she is his sister.
I think this is Hogg's Reddit and from Googling it, it looks like people have known it for weeks.
