Welcome to the fishbowl, David Hogg

Really, did David Hogg think his attempts at passive resistance regarding the Second Amendment come without trial?  Welcome to the big leagues, young man.

Out spoken people, right, wrong, or indifferent, need to understand that when you put your name in the fishbowl you become a target.  And so it is for David Hogg, who would like to rail like Martin Luther King, but is not willing to take the “medicine” that comes when you stand on the political stage.
So, when Dr. Laura Ingraham stated that he was a whiner, he was just getting what any other political opponent might get.  Is he a whiner? Simple answer, does he expect the public to just roll over for his cause?
Sorry, David, you jumped from high school wrestling to the World Wrestling Federation.  You want to argue like an adult and be treated like a child. “Oh, you really hurt my feelings with your name calling and bullying on the big stage,” he might as well have said.
The sad truth of the matter is that you are no longer a child.  You have opted to step into the real world of politics with one of the hottest constitutional arguments in ages. You are not, and no longer will be, treated like a child.  Welcome to the Jungle, or should I say Swamp.
In some respects, what the good Dr. commented on should be a shining badge of honor. You got her, and therefore public, attention.  Wear it.  Do you think her comment was bullying? Then, maybe you need to go home and cry in your pillow.
It wasn’t Laura Ingraham who laid down the gauntlet. No, no, it was you.  You decided to become someone’s spokesperson for the Anti-Gun movement. Or is that the Anti-pseudo-assault-rifle contingent.  My question for you is, where are you getting your funding? But, lest that might make you cry, I shall abstain.
You may try to claim that this is not civil disobedience, and to some extent you may be correct.  But it does harken to Civil Disobedience, and one of the main clauses in any form of Civil Disobedience also kind of fits with what you and yours are attempting. You have to be willing to accept what goes with the territory. To wit:

·   Jesus was crucified for his disobedience.  His death resulted in the books of the New Testament of the The Bible.

·    Henry David Thoreau spent time in jail for refusing to pay taxes. Yes, his mother bailed him out by paying them for him. But he wrote Civil Disobedience, which states that there are bad laws that ought to be ignored outright.

·    Adolf Hitler spent time in jail for the failed “Beer Hall Putsch,” where he wrote “Mein Kampf.”

·    Mahatma Ghandi was jailed and went on many hunger strikes. His book The Story of My Experiments with Truth is his autobiography.

·    Martin Luther King spent time in the Birmingham Jail for his freedom marches, have you read “A Letter from the Birmingham Jail?

·    David Hogg, fought against second amendment gun rights and then complained about being bullied and called a whiner. He wrote nothing.

So, Master Hogg, how does your movement stack up?

My best guess is that you will learn a great deal from this. You may in fact become a substantial human being who will grace the world with his presence, and knowledge, and foresight. All of that is probably within the realm of possibility.
But let me assure you of one thing. If you plan to extrapolate this into some kind of a career, grow a thicker skin.  Name calling and commenting and attacking you means nothing less than you are being successful. If you feel the need to whine about Dr. Ingraham’s whining comment, you just prove the point. If you want to be treated like an adult, then you really need to act like one.
Anything else is, well, whining.
