If teens have not yet fully developed brains, and lack the maturity and mental capacity to think and reason properly to a logical and rational conclusion... which is what we're told and have studies to back up... then why should we listen to them on these current protests and their call for gun control?

They're either worthy of inclusion in debate on complex and sensitive topics, or they're not, but cherry-picking based on whether they're saying the same thing as you isn't logical or rational in itself.
