Students at Inter-Lakes High School in Meredith, New Hampshire staged a 17-minute walkout at midday this past Wednesday to honor the Florida school shooting victims and protest Congress for not banning AR-15 rifles.
The superintendent won't say whether the student who led the walkout or any of the other students is being punished for it, according to The Laconia Sun.
Rick Green's experience as an entrepreneur resonates with his supporters and helps separate him from other candidates in their eyes.
Green, 47, co-founder of 1A Auto Parts in Pepperell, is running for the U.S. House of Representatives as a Republican in the Third District, which includes large portions of the Merrimack Valley along the New Hampshire border and goes as far south as Marlborough. It includes Lowell, Lawrence, Haverhill, and Fitchburg.
