While I understand what others here are saying about the option of aiming this protest at a climate change denier, I respect that these young people are sincere in their effort. I hope that this type of thing grows -- both on climate change and gun control -- and I'd recommend that they consider aiming at republicans. I keep in mind that young people think differently than old people like myself. And I'm confident that they will learn from experience.
