My VIP for this week is Kyle
Kashuv, a conservative student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in
Parkland, Florida. The media does not give Kashuv the same amount of coverage
as it does David Hogg, a far-left student. Hogg is getting all the “glory” –
his fifteen minutes of fame, but Kashuv has the knowledge and ideas that will
help to prevent future school massacres.
Kashuv on Saturday challenged Hogg to a debate over the subject of gun control. He tweeted: “Hey @davidhogg111 you
seem really fired up about gun control. Lets debate, one Parkland student to
another. I’m in DC right now.” He also sent a direct message to Hogg to make
that he received the challenge.
Dave Rubin, host of “The Rubin
Report,” offered to host the civil debate about gun control and to donate all
proceeds to charity. “Happy to do that. I’ll donate all proceeds and see how
else I can raise funds. Kyle Kashuv has agreed, hope you will too, David Hogg.”
The ball is now in Hogg’s court, but
he does not seem to want to pick it up. Kashuv knows gun facts, so he should be
an excellent debater on gun control.
Meanwhile,
Kashuv is going forward with his charges that adults need to take the blame for
the massacre at his school. The FBI, the country sheriff, and school officials
all knew that there was a problem with the killer, but they did nothing. NRA
had nothing to do with the situation but still receive the blame.
Kashuv created an app called “ReachOut”
that would allow students to be more supportive emotionally to others and to
help them recognize and report any signs of warning.
He
also had the opportunity visit with the President and First Lady as well as to
visit with members of Congress. He may not have received the media coverage of
Hogg, but he is certainly making himself known among those who can make a
difference. He will do much more to help our nation than the fiery words and
Hitler salutes given by Hogg.
