Shooting Survivor Says CNN Gave Him Scripted Town Hall Question

A student survivor of last week's massacre at a Florida school says CNN gave him a scripted question to ask at its town hall Wednesday night, eschewing one he wanted to ask.

Not only did Colton Haab decline, he decided not to attend the town hall in Sunrise, Florida, an event hosted by CNN featuring Sen. Marco Rubio, Dana Loesch of the NRA, Sen. Bill Nelson, among others.

"CNN had originally asked me to write a speech and questions and it ended up being all scripted," Haab told local ABC affiliate WPLG-TV. "I don't think that it's going get anything accomplished. It's not gonna ask the true questions that all the parents and teachers and students have."

The question Haab wanted to ask: His idea of using veterans as armed guards..

This shooting survivor has more sense than CNN and Marco Rubio, it was scripted just to put their slant on things so Rubio can run for election again.

A few of you blasted me about raising gun purchase age to 21. Trump agrees with me.

Ahhhh 1157. Purchase age would be 21, but usage age would still be 18.

Why? Our military of course! Always read the fine print on EVERYTHING!

If age is an issue, why not 30, when the hormones have leveled out?

If you want to raise the age then raise the age for military. No need for 18 year old to have a gun in military if he can't have a a free civilian.

Car accidents cause far far more deaths...turn in your cars 1157am. Plane crashes massacre 200-300 innocent people with each crash...your not calling for bans on planes?!? How many innocent unborn children are pulled apart limb by limb at abortion clinics EVERYDAY, THOUSANDS!! YET you flippen hypocritical idiots call for a ban on a tool that protects FAR more than is used in crime. FORFEIT your OWN damn rights!!!
Leave mine the L alone!!!
Making unnecessary laws and violating Constitutional Rights will only make it worse. Sending and expecting 18yrolds to fight at war yet deny them their rights at home to protect their Country from the corrupt government youve voted in? I wish youd say that in front of me one day soon!!
39 times that democrat sheriff {whom is running for office}was called to that boys home. I clearly see who let this happen, but you brainwashed want to blame the gun and suffer the law abiding so they cannot have defense against the domestic enemies you vote in power!

Tragedy of 9/11...not a single shot was fired, yet 2,977 innocent people died. Evil will find a way to kill if they want to kill.
