CNN aired a town hall on the Florida school shooting with Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Bill Nelson (D-FL) that included NRA's Dana Loesch and Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel that was moderated by Jake Tapper. Students and parents asked questions about gun control and school safety.

"I expected to be able to ask my questions and give my opinion on my questions," Haab said.

"Colton Haab, a member of the Junior ROTC who shielded classmates in the midst of terror says he did not get to share his experience," the reporter explained.

"Colton wrote questions about school safety, suggested using veterans as armed school security guards but claims CNN wanted him to ask a scripted question instead so he decided not to go," WPLG-TV reported.

This is nothing new. CNN town halls have always been staged. CNN is using these kids to push their anti American agenda. It’s pretty sad

They want aaaallll the guns.

Gonna keep saying it on as many threads as possible...

Showing up to this "town hall" freak show was as dumb as hell.

They have no interest in dialogue.

I wait for the day they attempt to infringe on our rights.

It is amazing to see the response from the left regarding the CNN town hall.

They think these kids are the answer to their prayers. These manipulated teenagers are going to impeach Trump and save this country.

You know you are in trouble when your best option for defeating Trump is a bunch of tide pod eating social media whoring puppets.

Nelson and the sheriff probably got the questions in advance. CNN is so fricking pathetic.

I'm shocked that Candy Crowley wasn't there to "help" the students along.

At this point there is less daylight between CNN and the democrat party than there used to be between pravda and the soviets.

I remember when staged bullshite was called "propaganda".

Silly guy. Doesn’t he know that when the media says “you have to listen to the kids” that they mean only the kids arguing for their side?

Whether a presidential debate or townhall meeting.... CNN feeds in questions to people “randomly” chosen to speak or to the candidate they support so that candidate can appear to be very informed.

CNN- totally dishonest

After seeing the thread yesterday on the POTUS listening session, I actually got offline and turned on the TV.

It was live on several channels.

The tone after the debate on the liberal networks was chilling. They were militant in their approach and used the entire session to bash Trump and the Rs.

What also struck me was their new found support for that father they were mocking just days ago who had the Trump shirt on when he couldn't find his daughter.

It is obvious what the left is doing here and it is disgusting. There is no way to rationally discuss anything anymore.

Goebbels would be so proud of the American media.

CNN is really sticking to their guns on shady procedure. No pun intended.

It’s as if they don’t care about being labeled a fraud
