Students protest shootout.

KANSAS CITY — Enough is enough. Students at Wyandotte High School in Kansas City, Kansas walked out of class on Monday in protest of a gunfire incident that took place during Friday’s football game against F. L. Schlagle High School. Two gunmen, who were not already at the game, converged at the stadium gate around 9:30 p.m. and opened fire at a school district police officer. The cop fired back and a shootout ensued. Spectators were freaked out. “I heard gunshots, and I got scared,” freshman Tom Sogoreo recounted. “I heard random gunshots, and I was screaming my head off.” Fortunately, nobody got hurt. But students are sick and tired of violence transpiring on campus. “Gun violence is real. And it’s not a minor issue that we can fix, it’s a major issue that’s going to take a whole community to fix it,” said junior Brelynn Brown. “I now have PTSD from it. Obviously, when I hear sounds that imitate a gunshot, it really affects me. Certain sirens start to trigger me, and it starts to work my anxiety.”
Brelynn’s mom, Christina Agado, echoed a homogeneous sentiment. “You can’t stop the world from having bad events take place — that’s going to happen,” she bemoaned. “But what we can control is what we do when these events happen.” Christina implored school administrators to ramp up security at sporting events. Eyewitnesses said they descried only one officer at the game.
“It makes me sad to know that kids can’t go to school and… feel safe,” said concerned parent Melanie Cervantes.
“I’m not happy about it. Kids should feel safe and enjoy life. I believe if there’s anything that can be done, it should be done.”

I’m PROUD STUDENTS say ENOUGH is ENOUGH…….All THESE LAW Makers APARENTLY REFUSE TO SEE IT
Most of those kids probably left cause they wanted to cut class,not for the actual protest
It’s really great students are aware of what’s going on, not just in the nation but locally. Being able to stand up for causes they believe in and not just ignoring a lot of the issues this country has. Some of the older generation have been out of school for years and don’t understand how scary it can be to go to school in this day and age. It doesn’t matter whether we vote for Democrats or Republicans, what we need are laws that protect children in schools. Guns have more rights then women, families, children, safety, and that needs to change.
Uh, no. They wanted to cut class. But kudos to them for getting away with it. Only way to make schools safer in the short term is to put armed guards at every school.
I seriously doubt this was the students’ idea. No doubt they were being manipulated and led by woke teachers and faculty when they should have been concentrating on the STEM subjects.
So… that’s all unexcused absences and homework is still due in the morning along with a pop quiz. 😂
@Miranda Jennifer: No such thing as gun violence. Just like there is no automobile violence, fentanyl violence, alcohol violence, abortion violence………violent PEOPLE do violent things. Lay any weapon on a counter top and see if it harms anyone without the assistance of someone.
Dear Student Protesters,
I say this with only love and support: you are wasting your time when you hold signs and chant. Most of the lawmakers you’re trying to reach don’t care whether you live or die; what makes you think they’re interested in your opinions?
If you really want to make a difference, PLEASE make sure you are registered to vote as soon as legally possible. Educate yourself and others about registration and voter-identification requirements in your state. Find voters’ guides and share them. Make a plan to vote. Find voting locations near you. Encourage your friends to vote early.
Channel the energy of your totally justified anger and frustration into voter-registration and voter-education drives NOW. Don’t wait until the next election.
Democracy is not a spectator sport. Use it or lose it.
its your own peers doing it
Most of them just want to get out of class
Its a ungodly culture thats the problem
BS, THIS IS PEDO GROOMING COMMUNIST TEACHERS TURNING YOUR KIDS INTO VIOLENT PROTESTERS. THEY CAN’T READ, OR WRITE, AND MARXIST TEACHERS ARE TEACHING THEM HOW TO SKIP SCHOOL, AND HELP COMMUNISTS TO DISARM THE GENERAL PUBLIC. THIS IS DEMOCRAT TEACHERS UNIONS BRAINWASHING YOUR KIDS TO GO AFTER THE 2ND AMMENDMENT. ASK YOUR KIDS WHO PUT THEM UP TO THIS.
Is it illegal to demonstrate on school property?
WOKE, and mindless
Guns are here to stay, learn to live with them in our society
@MatthewYoink: Homework can’t get done if they’re murdered by some scumbag.
This is probably what my school will look like soon, but instead of protesting against gun violence, the students will protest against the new phone policy.
God, wonder what trump would do to these young protesters if he was still in office? Call them “antifa” and have them take a few rubber bullets?
Damm, we are sure breeding weak minded kids these days
America wake up! It’s time to boycott the schools if the laws, the government, the lack of security in school doesn’t change why should we send our children to school if it’s not safe.
they are the future…..
They were given extra credit for participating in this I bet
Sounds like someone put a hit on that cop.
wonderful to see
These younger generations will be the change we failed so many times to be. All power to them. Enough is enough.
And folks say these kids are a lost generation? These kids are wonderful! I admire them and thier bravery! It’s heartbreaking they have to be in this situation because grown ups can’t get Thier stuff together. Schools places of worship hospitals places people come together in peace should never be places of violence. Just sad! Hopefully they’ll get done what my generation could not. They have my respect!
I love these kids!
IM SO GD PROUD OF THESE KIDS!!!!!!!!!💕💕💕💕💕😘💕💕💕💕💕💕😘💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Love to see them supporting each other.
@OohGreat: Yeah but none of this matters. Nothing will change.
There needs to be Voter Registrations at EVERY HIGH SCHOOL. Every prospective 18yo needs to be registered to exercise the ONLY power we have to stop this madness.
This is amazing and sad all at once, its nice to see the love for their fellow students and their hope for a safe future.
JESUS IS LORD KING AND SAVIOR AND THE ONE TRUE ONLY MESSIAH AND FOREVER WILL BE. ✝️🙏👍
