It's a great idea. From what we learned last week in Florida the locals don't want breakers there. Along with bikers.http://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/parkland/florida-school-shooting/fl-florida-school-shooting-david-hogg-spring-break-20180224-story.html
ne of the Parkland school shooting survivors is calling on tourists to boycott the State of Florida for spring break as a way to get legislators’ attention focused on gun control.“Let's make a deal DO NOT come to Florida for spring break unless gun legislation is passed,” David Hogg, a Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School student who is a leader in the #neveragain movement, posted on Twitter on Saturday.Hogg said he hoped his tweet would make state politicians listen if the “billion-dollar tourism industry in Florida” makes gun control measures a priority.“If the legislators aren’t going to listen to us, like they didn’t listen to us in Tallahassee the other day, maybe they’ll listen to the tourism industry,” Hogg told the South Florida Sun Sentinel in a phone interview.Hogg is one of the most recognizable faces in the movement. The TV production student recorded updates and interviewed fellow students on video while they hid in a tiny darkened classroom during the mass shooting.The National Rifle Association and the gun industry are facing a growing backlash in the aftermath of the Feb. 14 mass shooting that left 17 people dead and several more injured.

Silly nonsense. This younger generation is not living up to their potential.

Punk kid is not even old enough to go to Spring Break.

Of course, I am not surprised that Zero is looking to a child for leadership.

Silly nonsense. This younger generation is not living up to their potential.
In that generation's defense, this is really the initiative of a relative handful of self-important dipshits.
