The message triggered the moonbats.
School officials painted over a pro-Second Amendment message that students had painted on the school’s spirit rock on Monday night.
The group of Massachusetts students who painted the school’s spirit rock on April 2 were frustrated to discover that their work had been covered by school officials within 12 hours, one of the teens told Blue Lives Matter.
The large rock outside Groton-Dunstable Regional High School has been a canvas for artwork announcing school and town-related events for many years, 18-year-old senior Andrew Wilson told Blue Lives Matter.
“It gets painted continuously throughout the year,” he explained. “Sometimes it’s for school plays, or sports, town events, or even the National Walkout, for example.”
Wilson said that many people in his community hold very “liberal” beliefs, and that he and five other members of the senior class had been discussing the lack of objectivity they had observed with regard to gun control.
“We’re all more conservative,” he said of the group. “Right now the discussion about guns is really one-sided. The media isn’t covering the issue objectively, and they’re just pushing one agenda.”
“People are associating guns with people having bad ideas,” Wilson said. “There’s talk of repealing the Second Amendment – you can’t just go attack something like that.”
When one member of the group suggested painting the spirit rock to help convey a pro-Second Amendment message, the teens began to develop a plan.
Wilson explained that the last message painted on the rock involved National Walkout Day, which honored the slain students and faculty of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School murdered by a 19-year-old former student on Valentine’s Day.
Out of respect for the memory of those killed in the massacre, the teens decided to wait for nearly three weeks after the memorial walkout before they repainted the rock, he said.
At approximately 7 p.m. on Monday night, the group gathered at the school, and covered the rock in red, white, blue, and black paint.
A large American flag covered one end of the rock.
“Defend the 2nd Amendment” and “Shall NOT be infringed” were written on two other surfaces, as well as “#NRA” across the rock’s flattened top.
However, when the teens arrived at school on Tuesday morning, someone had already painted over each of the messages.
Only the American flag remained untouched.
