Family Who Took Florida Suspect In: ‘We Just Didn’t Know’

The night before the shooting, Mr. Snead said he noticed nothing unusual. The family ate cheese and steak sandwiches for dinner - Mr. Cruz put a chocolate chip cookie on top of his- and then watched "Jeopardy" on television. Mr. Cruz went to bed early, as he often did, Mr. Snead said.

My parents raised me to be better than what is represented in those screenshots from about two years ago. In an effort to be as honest and transparent as possible, I immediately apologized publicly when reminded of those messages, while knowing the media uproar that would ensue. It did ensue, and I have continued to accept responsibility and the resulting legitimate criticism. Let me first state that I apologize unequivocally for my comments, which were made two years ago in private among equally immature high school students. In the attached document, I have attached all the comments I have been able to record. I do not have access to the electronic record of that conversation and do not recall other things that may have been said; I have only seen what has appeared in the media. I take full responsibility for the idiotic and hurtful things I wrote two years ago. I make absolutely no excuse for those comments. I said them, I regret them, and by explaining the context and my subsequent experiences I am not trying to excuse them. Instead I am seeking to demonstrate the hurtful things I said do not represent the man I am today. As you know, I intend to take a gap year before beginning my studies to continue my work promoting school safety. I will continue to mature and will enter Harvard with throe years and many life experiences between the foolish child who said those things and the man I am today. As an aspiring member of the Harvard community, I aspire to the values that the community strives to uphold. Therefore I have already written to the Harvard College Office of Diversity Education and Support both to express my deepest apologies and remorse, and to reach out to begin a dialogue that I hope wil be the foundation of future growth. While I am no longer the same person who wrote those camments, there is always more to learn: especially about the legacy of racism in our society I understand Harvard's concern over these offensive statcments from my past, and I further understand that Harvard hns been contacted about them by people expressing concern about them. I am very sorry to have put the College in this position. I am determined to take whatever steps are necessary to rectify this past wrong and to reassure Harvard of my commitment to values of tolerance, diversity, and inclusion, which I hope to advance as a member of the class of 2024.

    Planned Parenthood official bullies Parkland Survivor and harasses his prom date

    Advertisements E DAILYWIRE ● ON OFF Planned Parenthood Official Trolls Parkland Shooting Survivor Kyle Kashuv's Prom Date "Hard pass, sweet girl. You can do better." By PAUL BOIS April 9, 2018 PAULBOIS39 In an ill-advised tweet, Laura lngraham mocked Parkland Shooting survivor David Hogg over his college rejections; for that, the student activist called for a boycott campaign against her advertisers. However, when CNN's Joan Walsh similarly mocked a Parkland survivor, no boycott was called. Now, a Planned Parenthood official has also mocked a Parkland survivor; no prizes for guessing that a boycott won't be called According to LifeNews, a Planned Parenthood senior adviser "was caught bullying a survivor of the Parkland, Florida school shooting and his date to the prom Thursday on Twitter." Ever since the Parkland protest became a national conversation, Planned Parenthood has actively supported students like Hogg and Emma Gonzalez in their fight to push for more gun control. Such students are sacred cows to the media and are off-limits for criticism. The few students who march to a different tune, like Kyle Kashuv, are subjected to a whole different set of rules. Elizabeth Thorp,a Planned Parenthood senior adviser, mocked Kyle Kashuv on Thursday: 000 AT&T LTE 12:22 PM Elizabeth Thorp @ElizabethEThorp Replying to @İbrahimovafidan @KyleKashuv and @bennyjohnson Hard pass, sweet girl.
