Like a lot of Floridians, OP sounds like she needs a CAT scan. There is something wrong with you if this is the gun issue that gets you riled. This act of pretending teens, by default, should be considered judicious firearm owners and that social media is just an innocuous element involved is just... wow. It's funny, I don't recall these sentiments when pics of from Treyvon Martin's (and other black kids) media account were all over the news, didn't see or hear a single social conservative leap to the defense.

It would appear some people in Florida have connected the issue of youth gun violence with the prevalence of threats, brags, intimidation and coercion found in that same groups media presence. Yes how horrible for a state to take measures to deescalate tensions where so many disputes originate, it's not like they have a problem with gunfire erupting in schools periodically, right? Think about the selfies! Ugh.

Keep on keepin on banana republicans...

ummm you say i need a CAT scan? lol maybe you should take a step back and really try to understand what this law is going to do.

Oh and good try to play the pathetic race card. the thing is there is no law on the books yet prohibiting Treyvon or other minors from posting pics of his Glock or bb gun. you do understand the difference dont you?

A CAT scan is probably excessive in your case. Some remedial adult education might do the trick, or maybe even just less Fox Noise and talk radio? If you can't address the points I mentioned, if that's what counts as a rebuttal in your world, well, I rest my case. If being intellectually honest and consistant with your argument is problematic, you need to find a better argument.

Focus please. Legality of pics then is irrelevant; the opposite kinds of reactions among gun nuts, dependent on who is holding said guns, is entirely relevant regarding your outrage. So you don't like being called out over double standards and hypocrisy, or being seen as someone with a comically short attention span? Seems like the fixes for all that are entirely within your reach.

Yeah it's a real shame your kids gun range selfies are in jeopardy here, I'm sure the parents of the Parkland victims or anyone that's lost someone to a FB beef can relate.

This is government censorship.
