A teen survivor of the mass shooting in Florida who was attacked in a series of tweets that were liked by Donald Trump Jr. rejected claims that he was an actor being propped up by the media.

“I’m not a crisis actor, I’m someone who had to witness this and live through this and I continue to be having to do that,” 17-year-old David Hogg told Anderson Cooper on CNN Tuesday.

The tweets and fringe website True Pundit accused the student of being a fabrication of the “mainstream media” and noted that he is the son of a retired FBI agent who was only slamming President Trump because of Trump’s repeated attacks on the feds.

“The fact that these people refuse to believe that something like this could happen is something that all of us don’t want to believe, but the sad truth is that it is,” Hogg said.

Hogg said it was “disturbing” that people would accuse him of not being a real high school student and that he isn’t an actor “in any sense, way, shape or form.”

“I’m the son of a former FBI agent and that is true, but as such it is also true that I go to Stoneman Douglas High School, I was a witness to this,” he said.

He also criticized those amplifying the claims and said it was “disgusting” that Donald Trump Jr. had liked the tweets attacking him.

“It’s unbelievable to me that these people are even saying this, and the fact that Donald Trump Jr. liked that post is disgusting to me,” he said.

Hogg then refuted claims that he wanted to repeal the Second Amendment and ban guns entirely.

He believes Americans should be able to own guns if they are mentally stable, don’t have major convictions or red flags in their background and are “not going to go out and commit these atrocities,” he said.
