Let's take a look at that first sentence again, shall we:

*A group of students, some of whom survived the mass murder at Parkland High School last week, arrived at the Florida capital in Tallahassee Wednesday morning. *

Is the author here, Dave Weaver, trying to say that some of the kids who didn't survive the shooting last week were also able to travel to the Florida capital today and get rebuffed by a staffer?

A simple explanation. They drove up in a station wagon, except the station wagon was all black and had a really huge back area.

And I fully expect "Appointment only" to become a trendy hashtag.

I suspect that some of the students were from schools besides Parkland.

James Hollenbeck reading it in that light I think you're right. I made the assumption that the students were all from the same school.

Also, Parkland High School is not a place in Florida. There is a high school in Parkland, FL, but it has a different name.

Not very clear, was it? Instead of 'some of whom survived' it could have said 'which included some survivors of''.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
