David Hogg thought he could get away with anything.
But now he finds himself in the biggest scandal of his entire life.
Now David Hogg is in big trouble after he was caught attacking a woman.
After the Parkland shooting, David Hogg, who was one of the students at the school, used the tragedy to build himself into a national anti-gun celebrity.
He became an insufferable presence on Twitter who was constantly trying to draw attention to himself and build up his fame and his brand.
But he may have finally gone too far this time.
He made an unacceptable comment on his Twitter account, and now he has found himself in a scandal that he never expected to be in.
According to Bearing Arms, “David Hogg wasn’t likely to amount to all that much before the Parkland shooting. I’m not saying he was a loser who would have ended up on the streets or anything, but no one would have heard of him were it not for what happened that day.
“But Parkland happened, the news crews put a camera in front of his face, and he said all the right things to become a media darling.
“And that’s a bit of an issue because, honestly, his takes are often idiotic.”
What did Hogg say this time that was so idiotic? Here is what he posted on Twitter: “We will never end gun violence until white woman in the suburbs stop voting for the republicans who are endangering our schools and communities by flooding them with guns.”
In other words, Hogg is blaming women for the fact that mass shootings happen in the United States. It’s not the fault of the crazy people who commit mass murder for attention – it’s the fault of women.
It’s absurd that Hogg would attack women in this way and make generalizations about them as a group, let alone blame them for something as horrific as mass shootings.
The article continues, “See, Hogg has made it his mission in life to see guns as the enemy. For all his talk about being a gun owner and going to gun ranges and such, he’s still guilty of seeing gun–even if only certain firearms–as the problem.”
“Yet, when we tell him the problem is people, this is the only way you’ll get him to agree. The issue isn’t criminals or the insane but that women won’t do what a man such as Hogg tells them to do.”
It’s clear that Hogg has an issue with women. Whether that comes from a place of insecurity, no one but him can truly know. But his tweet reveals that he carries an unhealthy level of resentment towards women.
Women have a right to vote for whoever they want to, and they have a right to own guns to defend themselves.
It’s totally inappropriate for David Hogg to blame them as a group for national tragedies just because he doesn’t like the choices that some of them have made.
