The March for Our Lives may have been the Parkland activist students' magnum opus, but they are by no means done agitating for leftist policies. The only relevant legislation on the horizon, the STOP School Violence Act, passed without their support, and there are few gun regulations likely to pass.
So, at least one Parkland student is seeking to expand his policy agenda; David Hogg is battling voter ID laws.
That's right: he may believe you should have photo identification in order to exercise your Second Amendment rights, but is iffy on whether you should have similar paperwork to cast a ballot.
Politicians: Yeah let's make it easier to vote.
Politicians Also: Wait let's require voters to have id so we can suppress the vote of the people so I can get reelected via a system that disproportionatly effects people of color and the poor! Smh

The linked article is an ACLU fact sheet, not a new blog post, or a relevant news story. Hogg simply interrupted his regularly scheduled anti-gun programming to bring you a message from your betters: asking people who already have access to the means to acquire picture identification to show that identification in order to protect the electoral process is a problem.
After social media users suggested that voter ID laws help to safeguard elections, Hogg was forced to backtrack.
Listen I support the security of our election but not when it uses a system that suppresses the American's vote and voice

Contrary to the stated purpose of Saturday's March for Our Lives — "preventing gun violence" — the objective appears to be the widespread promotion of a severely leftist agenda, and not just on guns.
