When the "child" cynically uses the tragic deaths of his school mates to obtain personal notoriety and self-aggrandizement, then he is swimming in the deep end of the grown ups pool.

And, you need to change your Pampers.


Very true but the problem is Harvard. Hogg just saw an opening to exploit the system, and succeeded.

Same as Trump did, in a different context.


Listen to yourselves, gun lovers. Who in their right mind ever described the college application process as "saw an opening to exploit the system"??? Y'all are nuts and I love that Hogg made you nuts.


Dear crazy American,

I have no gun. I do have a European passport.

Visit a therapist, and/ or go back to school and learn how to dialogue.

Not to mention helped to pull sponsors from Fox shows! Sounds smart to me!

He's just learned to hesitate before adding a u to certain words, or spelling "re" for "er." But he will deny all day that he lacks standing to engage in this particular kind of Comet Ping Pong nastiness. He still has to work hard on comma placement. Let's pray for him.

It's pretty priceless. I don't care about the admissions process at McGill, as I'm not Canadian and don't have a kid applying to Canadian colleges in the next several years. But it's somehow normal rhetorical engagement to say a school shooting survivor is "using" his experience unfairly (?) to get into a high-prestige college, oh and he also hurt applicants of color and of course Awkward Foreign Troll cares about POC and the historically underrepresented! This is not just him crapping out posts because he's miserable and focusing on presidential politics is never good for cons.

It's pretty clear that Mr. Hogg is not even close to being academically qualified to attend Harvard (which is why a number of other lesser schools handily rejected his application, despite his notoriety and media-savvy credentials).

What his lack of brain-power implies is that he will struggle with his class work while at Harvard. It's inevitable based on his (at best) "mediocre" test scores.

I imagine he will spend a couple of years there giving short shrift to his class work and devoting most if not all of his time to polishing his "brand."

Most likely he will try to set up a non-profit foundation or NGO which he can run or otherwise get a high level job at, and then exit Harvard without actually getting his degree because he is needed so urgently elsewhere.

The shame of it all is there must be at least 500 or 1000 black or hispanic kids with better grades and scores who missed out on Harvard because they weren't good at marketing themselves.


Had those black and Hispanic kids gotten accepted you’d be tearing them down for taking the place of white kids with higher SAT scores.


Hogg was NOT one of those kids with higher scores. That's the point.

(I'm guessing your scores were about three sigmas below the mean, so maybe you don't get the point.)

Bwahahahaha. My degrees are from schools that functionally always rank among the top 5, and routinely among the top 3. I guarantee you David Hogg will do just fine at Harvard, as difficulty is associated largely with the major you choose rather than the undergrad school you attend. How else do you think the Bushes, Kushners, Trumps and other rich half-wits managed to even graduate?


I simply pointed out that Hogg was not admitted to Harvard based on academic merit, which is objectively verifiable as proven by the fact that about a dozen lesser schools rejected him (despite what could be described as his "public service accomplishments" as he wants to be perceived). That means they evaluated not only his test scores and his grades, but his recommendations, the quality of his high school, course work taken in high school, etc. etc.

To be rejected by so MANY lesser schools, Hoggs "total application package" must inevitably reflect someone who is OBVIOUSLY (at least "obviously" to an undergraduate admissions office) simply UNqualified academically, someone who they must believe has a good likelihood of NOT succeeding academically at their respective institutions.

So, this is not my opinion, this is the opinion of numerous evaluations by numerous colleges who would have absolutely no reason to deny him admission if he was even remotely academically qualified.

You must understand that this is in the context of his applications to institutions which are either "competitive" or "highly competitive" so all of these other schools are in effect deciding that they are not going to "waste" a space for a freshman on Hogg given that there are others more deserving of admission than he, and clearly so.

As to Bush, Trump, etc. etc., I do not know how many colleges they applied to as undergraduates and were rejected from, and I don't think that information is available, but it is available for Hogg, because he disclosed his numerous admission failures on social media.

He's 18. He can drive. He can enlist and offer up his life for his country. He can marry. He can work FT. He is no child in my eyes.

Yes, that only applies to Monica Lewinsky and Brett Kavanaugh.

My scores were well below the mean of the Ivy I attended and actually below Hogg’s. But I had other things going for me. Sorry if I took your spot.

He also is a high school graduate. He's not a kid, but an adult.
