CNN Quote:
The conversation at times grew heated, especially when Feinstein dismissed the group's request due to their tone and their youth.
A young woman tells Feinstein she's "looking at the faces of the people who will be living with these consequences" of climate change.

"I've been doing this for 30 years. I know what I'm doing," Feinstein says. "You come in here and you say, 'It has to be my way or the highway.' I don't respond to that."
"I've gotten elected. I just ran," she continues. "I was elected by almost a million-vote plurality, and I know what I'm doing. So, you know, maybe people should listen a little bit."

In the video, Feinstein also asks a girl how old she is as the girl says politicians should listen to the people they represent. The girl replies that she is 16.
"Well, you didn't vote for me," the senator says. unquote.

I watched the video I didn't think it was all that mad.

How else do respond to young people who have no clue how the real world works.

Alas FI, those adolescents are of the age where they have the maturity as well as ability to emulate their caregivers.

These young adults were given unfettered access to one of this nation’s Senior Congressional Leaders, should have given DianneF some insight she wasn’t among commoners per se.

Finally, as the olde adage goes, don’t irritate the younger generation as they are picking out your nursing homes and who is going to change your diaper when you become infirm!

Moral, be at least polite and cordial to your constituents or deal with the backlash!

DiFi should be careful, that 16 y/o will be voting in two years, six years if DiFi runs for office again.

Is that kid even in DiFi's district? If not, her voting for this geriatric case isn't even an option ! And, considering her age, will DiFi even be able to run for office in a couple of years? This is most likely her last term.

Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the late 1700s. Over 300 years later, man is still walking upright. I predict that 12 years from now man will still be walking upright and some of us will still be fighting for the right to keep and bear arms.
