It is very reminiscent of what I felt as a young g person protesting the Vietnam invasion by my country. We stood up then and it’s very important that you are standing up now. CARRY ON!

Well said Mia! You also appear to have a conscience, something many in this country lack. Stay involved please, we need your generation to pick up the mantle!

Mia, I had a similar experience at your age when punk rock came to OC in the late 70's. I jumped on it and learned to distrust authority. Everyone told me at 15 I ruined my life. Two years later they were asking me how I was so knowledgeable about politics and music. Hang in there. The world will catch up to you on your current thinking. These beasts are destroying everything but we won't let them succeed. It seems you have figured out most adults are clueless, especially in conservative parts of OC.

Thank you Mia, you have a voice and don’t be afraid to use it. You are already better educated and more informed than a lot of adults.

God bless you, Mia! Keep fighting, keep speaking up…you’re our hope for the future. Sorry we’ve left you with a mess, but together with fellow Americans who believe in democracy, we can fix it.

Very impressive Mia. I remember being your age and not having 1% of the understanding about what is important that you exhibit. I am happy to know there are young people to hopefully clean up my generations mistakes.

Thank you for sharing your opinion! Your voice is your power and I love that you are using it. Action is the antidote for anxiety and despair. You inspire all of us to keep fighting for sanity to be restored and to end the chaos and cruelty.

I keep apologizing to my two kids, 30 and 26, for the f-ing mess we’ve created for them. And I apologize to your and your brave, aware classmates.

The people who tell you you’re wrong are afraid of losing their privilege and power over you. Their fear is obvious in their negative remarks. Ignore them.

Keep speaking out, stay idealistic. Make government boring again!
