16-year-old pro-gun activist sues school over treatment during Parkland rally

By Chris Eger

A lawsuit filed in federal court argues school officials supported a walk-out by students advocating gun control while attempting to muzzle opposition.
Named as defendants in the suit are a host of Hononegah Community High School administrators in Rockton, Illinois who, as outlined in court filings, allowed one group of students to protest in response to the Feb.14 school shooting in Parkland, Florida while at the same time marginalizing a smaller group of youth who felt differently.
Madison Oster, 16, feels the best way to protect students while on campus is to “harden” schools with measures such as metal detectors and armed guards rather than implement more gun regulations. In response to a well-planned March for Our Lives rally to be held at the school’s football field on the one-month anniversary of the Parkland shooting to support an anti-gun agenda, Oster planned a counter-protest with a few like-minded students. Beforehand, her father, Jeremy, cleared the protest with school officials.
However, on the day of the rally, the younger Oster and five supporters were kept about 95 yards away from the estimated 100 to 150 anti-gun students engaged in the sanctioned walk-out. When the youth protested, they were called “troublemakers,” by a school official
