raheema ellis has been in parkland. idea is for students to fete to a partly cloudy park for the remember prance of those students in a call to action. what do you see? >> reporter: i'm in the midst of a couple of thousand students who are out here including this young man, hector navarro. 18 years old. what do you hope will come as a result of this walk-out? >> change. all we want is change that's all we've been asking for. we thank everybody that came out and doing the walk with us and every other school. chang, we have to do it it's now or never. >> reporter: you're a senior -- oh. >> the camera pman down. >> reporter: walking backwards is hard to do. >> yeah, make sewer your camera man is okay there. walking backwards isn't easy. raheema i'm going to let you do that and please come back with us. many of the students, talking about how their voices lon may not be enough, butting to they believe they can make change. on the state level you have seen some action in florida, for example where parkland is located. on a f

the names of all the victims from parkland will be read. if you look here in the crowd you'll see some people here wearing white. each one of those people standing here wearing white represents one of the victims from the sandy hook shooting. i've also had an opportunity out here today to speak to one of the victims from the shooting in las vegas. she talked about the necessary to have change happen at the national level. just a few moments ago i spoke to paul mccartney. he stood here and talked about the need for gun reform. as you know, he said as many people know, one of my best friends was shot not far from where we're standing right now. we expressed the need for gun change here as well. again, hushed tones here. a number of people are going to be out here. after the rally wraps up here, there's going to be a march downtown and things are just getting under way here in new york city. back to you. >> all right, jason carroll, thank you so much. of course we are watching people gather across the country to fight for changes in gun laws.

let's listen to the rally in parkland, florida right now. fathers of a student who lost their lives at marjory stoneman douglas high. >> since the day that changed my life i have decided that i will not stop fighting for change. i can stand here today and tell you all that the 17 victims' families will not stop fighting until we make this world a better and safer place. fire fighting is a very dangerous profession. we have one to two fires a day and when you respond together and you put your lives on the line, you do have to surround yourself with experts. and for us the expert in gas and electric is pg&e. we run about 2,500/2,800 fire calls a year and on almost every one of those calls pg&e is responding to that call as well. and so when we show up to a fire and pg&e shows up with us it makes a tremendous team during a moment of crisis. i rely on them, the firefighters in this department rely on them, and so we have to practice safety everyday. utilizing pg&e's talent and expertise in that area trains our firefighters on the gas or electric

five years since the tragedy in my state and now 32 days since parkland i don't think we should wait one day more or one day longer before we have an open debate on the senate floor about how we, as those entrusted with the safety of our children do something about the epidemic of gun violence in this country. llpe floor. i yield the floor mr. president this saturday students from parkland florida are going to lead hundreds of thousands of americans all around the country calling for common sense gun control measures for the march for our lives. since this terrible shooting in florida in parkland on valentine's day, we have seen students all across the country say enough. this is a movement that cannot be stopped and frankly, we all went to the students, the next generation to get this right in the policies and a the laws that we adopt. just a few weeks ago, i went to one of the students homes from parkland and a group of them and we talked and just last week member of the students came to the office appear in washington. it is amazing 15 and 16 and 17 years old, the students are loo

the failure to act al allowed a parkland shooter to maintain and possess firearms. in the wake of the parkland attack, this committee has the obligation to find out what happened. we must hold our government to account for its failures and to make sure that plans are in place to avoid future tragedies. but we must rally around consensus, evidence-based solutions that will protect the nation's most valuable resource, its young from violent attacks. i hope that political opportunists will not interject extreme agenda to into this deb. it may be good for the political effect effects of both parties and the fund-raising for midterms, but it is not good for america, and the safety of the citizens. i saw this happen after new town. after new town, i worked with my colleague sandra cruz to introduce legislation that would have improved are reporting to the the nics background system to provide the prosecutions of a dangerous people who lied to try to buy firearms and authorized a government study to solve the problem of mass shootings. that law could have helped prevent tr

let's now go to parkland, florida where kaylee hartung is. and the park there where the march for our lives will begin in just a couple of hours, what are you expecting, what are you told is going to happen there? >> reporter: well, victor, as one volunteer who traveled here from kansas city told me, this is the heartbeat of the movement that we're seeing sweep the country today and that is why before the sun came up i was meeting volunteers who came here from across the country who were having marches this their own cities, but as they told me wanted to be here at the epicenter of this movement. and you can see behind me the scope of what is being planned here, the logistics for the student organized event are impressive. and they doen anticipate this k to be filled. this is once the site of the memorial to the 17 victims and it is now the start and end point for this march that will visit stoneman douglas high school in its two mile course. this program expected to start around 10:00 a.m. with a host of speakers. of course we will hear from

, thank you so much, out of parkland, florida. you see the crowds there. there are crowds developing in new york city as well and that's where we find our jason carroll in the thick of it. jason. >> reporter: let me tell you, there are so many people who are already here and the event hasn't even officially started yet. we're here at 61st street. let me show you what's happening up here. people are standing shoulder to shoulder, going up central park west all the way up to 72nd street, keeping them in pens along the way. already spoken to a number of survivors here, people from sandy hook, a librarian who sheltered 19 fourth graders in place in the library. i also spoke to a survivor from las vegas who was here as well. in talking to a number of the people here who are about to take the stage very soon, fredrica, they've been talking about what they want to see going forward. as you know, the state of new york has some of the toughest gun legislation in the country. that was passed after sandy hook. when i spoke to one of the surv

steven shapiro, life-long resident of parkland, someone who went to parkland. i'm just curious, are you energized in a different way as to what happened here? >> absolutely. just seeing everyone ban together toward this issue, it's pretty remarkable. knowing that we do have support, we need to work and continue to work together for change to be made. and i'm definitely motivated to keep going and keep having awareness. it needs to change. safety needs to be taken into account for. >> so, traditionally, we would think, especially, chris, you would agree with this, that we would think about editorial in newspapers, about television news coverage. this generation really doesn't pay attention to that. you guys are online. what happens in the online world? what happens in social media now that maybe those of us who were a little bit older don't quite recognize? >> reporter: yeah. i mean, i think just the whole -- how this movement is unlike anything other is truly the generation and, as you hit you on, is the children and age, and that we have the skills to use soci

we want to thank the parkland students. we want to let them know newtown high school students stand with them. we will stay with you during your healing and recovery. we are connected by a treasury that could have been -- tragedy that could've been prevented.

you can see this alumni association from parkland.etherness. how did you come together after the shooting? >> just a few days after the shooting, overnight, we had an alumni net work of over 11,000 people. we actually formed just a few days after. and since then, alumni across the country have been putting on events, raising awareness. we were instrumental in getting students to d.c. just last week, we had a benefit to fund raise for march for our lives raising over $4,000 for these students to put on this event. we want to be helpful from parkland to chicago, everywhere in between. >> what's this pain like? obviously, it's your school. everyone's talking, they're galvanized. i've seen you guys come together. what's this like to see everyone now, even in chicago together? >> it's very inspiring. especially these students. it's -- it's just -- we got to get out and fight. it's great to be here today. and to be in chicago. you know, a lot of us -- i felt like i was going to go to d.c. but i'm proud to be here in chicago where i feel lik

there's parkland, florida. that's what they're doing today in parkland.ound the country. let's go to cnn's jason carroll now. he is in new york city with what's happening there. so jason, we're looking at boston for a moment. you can see the streets, how filled they are. tell us what's happening in new york at this hour. >> the marchers now have stopped at a point on sixth avenue. we've heard from so many people, from so many tragedies, from las vegas to sandy hook. also joining us right now are some of the family members from gina rose manito. give us a sense of why you came out today, what you hope to accomplish. >> we're from new york. we want to be a part of this movement that's been inspired by gina's schoolmates. these kids are amazing. they've accomplished so much. gina would have been right there with them. the kind of kid she would have grown up to be. strong, outspoken, doing what's right. we're here to support them today. also obviously celebrate the memory of our great lost family member, and we want to make people aware and hope that nobody h

that's why they have been so inspired by these students from parkland. i saw it with my own eyes last sunday. a few of the stoneman douglas survivors came to visit new jersey, and my constituents came out in droves to support them. together with the jewish federation of greater metro west and moms demand action, we rallied well over 2,000 people in support of their never again movement. now, what's remarkably refreshing about these students is that they are not yet jaded by the ways of washington. they have spent their lives practicing active shooter drills. they have grown up being told that mass shootings are just a fact of life. but they know that they deserve better. after being thrust into a tragedy, they have turned their mourning into a movement. by speaking out, the students of parkland have pricked the conscience of this country, and the american people are answering their call to action. we see at rallies across the country calling for tougher, smarter commonsense gun safety laws. we see it in students across america organizing the march for ou

stayed in parkland. obviously it was a big demonstration in parkland. how did you make the decision about whether to am can here or stay there? >> i had a discussion with with my advisor of my newspaper and we made the decision that it was best for me to use my skills as a journalist and my pagds as an actress and someone who wants to create change to come here where the action was and we had some people stay back and report in parkland because we knew that was important as well to talk about. >> what was your day today as a journalist? >> i pretty much spent the entire time in the student area. i wouanted to be with my friend. i walked around. i took interviews of people who came from los angeles, chicago, people that came from new town and i got a lot of people's stories and i waulked around on the side and met with this woman who had lost her dotter to gun violence and it was an amazing experience. >> julian, what were you hoping for today and what do you feel was accomplished? >> a big crowd and that

let's start in parkland. diane gallagher it there. >> reporter: yeah, john, not going to see any discipline for students participating in that here. they have the full support not just of the faculty and staff but of the entire community and the past couple minutes we started to see families walk in, small children people in the community supporting these kids. the students will walk out of their classrooms any minute now and going to go to the football field together. they are going to stand on that football field which is behind the fence. still on campus and they are going to be there for those 17 minutes, one for each of the victims who were killed at this school one month ago today. they are reflecting as well on the political activism on gun very form, on mental health. they want to make sure that this is something that is not taking not being forgotten. you can see the drone footage walking out towards the football field. this is a little bit of a different situation than other schools across the natio

after the tragedy in parkland,c parkland florida, the president echoed nra suggesting arming teachersook at that idea, shall we? that's about 718,000 educators. the washington post looked at a different path to reach the president's goal. if we can get all teachers in that course, it would cost just shy of $72 million but then let's say we want more expansive training, an ohio company gives a training called faculty emergency training or emergency response or faster program. the company behind it is is buckeye foundation, it happens over three days of training and teachers can take the course for free. that's thanks to private and corporate donations. if three quarter of a million participated of the size of an army combined. taxpayers should have to shoulder some of that cost. 1,000 per par participant, that would balloon the proposal to $17 million. pretty much what you think when someone says a handgun. the company describes it as the world's most popular pistol. the guns could cost 59 million bucks total if we go by the basic gun safety training. the president's idea would cost $4

aquÍ nos encontramos en parkland en este movimiento que hoy hace eco en todo el paÍs.uelto emblemÁtico para esta lucha. este espacio donde la comunidad se ha organizado y se ha llevado a cabo varias marchas. en este parque se han congregado alrededor de 20 mil 40 mil personas, estÁ lleno. venido en solidaridad a esta marcha apoyar que estos estaring oroi organizadores estamos con luis, luis es padre de uno de los organizad organizadores daniel, daniel subiÓ a este escenario y hablar ante estas personas. luis ¿ cÓmo te sientes ver a tu hijo? >>> muy bien, muy orgulloso de Él. ellos han levantado la voz porque hay que hacer un cambio, para que no pase en ninguna escuela del paÍs y del mundo. muy, muy feliz con las palabras de daniel. muy contento, por toda la acogida de toda la gente. por el apoyo de todos los medios. y gracias a ustedes por estar aquÍ acompaÑÁndonos. >>> luis plÁticanos daniel ha querido representar este proyecto foposterior al tiroteo aa martÍn duque, a quien Él dedica sus esfuerzoss de activismo >>> porque primero que todo martÍn no fue un gran amigo

parkland, we're loud. we have people from all around the time.n progress particularly since the sandy hook elementary school. but there heath been this grassroots movement where the voices, these disparate voices haven't figured out how to come together and these kids are amazing, they are relentless, tireless, they're on point. they understand the issues, the money that the nra is giving politicians. they visited thurgood marshall high school the other day and came away talking about the ill pact of gun violence in the urban united states. they're really connecting the dots and i think that that aggressive way of connecting the dots, they're saying things, that we've been saying, but it's different coming from them. >> it has this purity of it. why are the adults in the country wirks are the politician letting us be killed in our schools. that message is hitting home. >> what's interesting, juju, i was speaking with one of your colleagues from school earlier on the broadcast and there is concern about keeping this going, this is an extraordinary

my name is aalayah eastmond, and i am a parkland survivor.4, studying holocaust history, when bullets started flying in. i was the third classroom. today one of my fallen eagles named nicholas, it would have been his 18th birthday today. i dedicate my march to him. [cheers and applause] but i am not only here to speak about school shootings. i'm here to speak for the urban communities that have been speaking out about this way before february 14, 2018. [cheers and applause] their voices are just as important as ours, and they need to be heard. this is a very important subject, and it needs to change. although it has been 38 days since the parkland shooting, nothing has changed, and we need change now. [cheers and applause] this cannot happen again, and it is going to continue to happen again until we get change. how many more do we need, how many more do we need in schools and in the streets? we need change now, not only in schools, but in urban communities as well. [cheers and applause] all of our lives are important, and all of our stories

i am just won edering, you know, what is life like back in parkland? >> i mean, i think that we are sort of in this weird adjustment period where we are trying to get back to normal, but we are not sure what normal is. but we are as a community, as a school community, we are really proud of the students and everything that they are trying to achieve. >> why do you think it is the young people? i have been covering this for years, and everyone said that after sandy hook and you had first graders killed, how could nothing come of that. why do you think that it is rebecca and her friends? >> i think that they are so articulate. i think that people were surprised that they could even have positions on these issue, but for us at a stoneman, we are not surprised, because we taught them. i taught cameron and jackie and so i am not surprised that they can ar the tick yu late their positions on important issue, but the world is surprised. people think of teenagers and kids immersed in the phones and the social media. >> and i was talking to the classmates that

to the parkland students who died. give it up for isabell robinson, sam size, david hog, alex wind, and samantha fuentes in the house. [ applause ] i know history when i see it. i know history when i see it. and i got a chance to watch something i never thought i would see in my lifetime. something that was emotionally as impactful as the march on washington. and i want to on behalf of a whole bunch of people thank you one more time for all your courage and leadership after all you've been through. thank you very much. [ applause ] now, i'm curious, because you guys were on stage, you know, spoke, gave your perspective. it looked like history to me. how did it feel to you, samantha? what was your experience? >> i, in all honesty, was absolutely terrified, but in la way i felt that i have a moral obligation to do something right. >> yeah. >> and i feel that if i flied all the way to washington d.c., got on that stage with like almost a million people in front of me, and i didn't finish my speech, my whole mission and ca

>> i don't know if you have been to parkland, but parkland is a very wealthy neighborhood. it. there's a lot of resources there. the majority of our school is white. and that's something that i have been dealing with. it's very hard for me to get my voice and some of my fellow classmates' that are black or hispanic or indian, it's difficult, but i feel like that's why our movement is progressed as far as it has. unfortunately, that's unfair and it's not how it's supposed to be, but at least something good is coming from that. >> what do you say to people who would say, you're just 16. you can't vote. you're not even close to voting yet. you shouldn't be politically involved? >> i think that people are listening to us. i know my parents are listening to me. that's two votes in my corner. i have my entire family supporting me. so two years is not that long of a time. i'll be able to vote in the next main election for president, and i know i will not be casting a vote for donald trump. >> well, thank you so much for coming in and sharing your voice and being courageous with yo

and parkland.the coastal florida high school when a 19-year-old killed 17, injuring 14 in the latest in a long line of shootings. the suspect awaiting trial but the country is far from closure. joining me is jewel issy bishop. she was evacuated. i have to remind our viewers and the world about what you go through, what these students in all of these stories just read go through. the terror that will, despite how you heal, will live with you for the rest of your lives. tell me what happened that day. >> that day i was sitting in my government class and we were learning about interest groups. my teacher was informing us about how the nra has the most influence among our politicians and how we could possibly be the generation to change that, in fact. just 20 minutes before the bell rang, the fire alarm started to go off, which was unusual as we had had a drill just earlier that day. we started moving out, following the protocol. we even lined up in the field and stayed still. we were all vulnerable to

in newtown, connecticut, and parkland, florida. we are in the midst of a gun violence epidemic in this country. yet, the do-nothing republican congress is missing in action. the overwhelming majority of the american people support universal background checks. the overwhelming majority of the american people support limiting access to weapons of war. the overwhelming majority of the american people support raising the age of purchase from 18 to 21. yet, the do-nothing republican congress is missing in action. our students should be able to go to school and focus on reading, writing, and arithmetic. but instead, they're often in school with their hands in the air, participating in active shooting drills. yet, the do-nothing republican .ongress is missing in action all throughout the country today, tens of thousands of students in blue states and red states, students in urban america, rural america, and suburban america, students in the north, the south, the east and the west are walking out of class for 17 minutes to demand that cong

it was great. >> this came out of the parkland massacre, the parkland tragedy.e home today was, it's not just about the school shootings. it's about shootings in general. >> that's definitely something that we wanted to come across because gun violence has definitely been around longer than parkland. and it's something that communities of color face every day. we wanted to acknowledge that. >> that's why the march started this morning in rocksbury, a part that sees violence. you met with senator elizabeth warren. do you have hope she and others on capitol hill can get something done? >> definitely. if everybody thought more like elizabeth warren, this world would be a little better. >> thank you so much. very impressive today. thank you. best of luck. >> thank you. >> ana, ending the day, speaking with student organizers, a lot of hope, a lot of optimism going forward. >> alex mar quart in boston. let's listen to those in l.a. this is laura dern. >> i'm in seventh grade. there have been 18 school shootings in the united states since the beginning of 2018. school

there in parkland one month ago 17 students and staff members were killed. in washington, dc we've been showing you protesters gathering from capitol hill to the white house. >> we want to show kids that anyone can stand up and show their opinions. it doesn't matter how old or young you are. all voices matter. >> there's another rally plan for saturday, march 24. demonstrators will march in washington, dc demanding safe schools and an end to gun violence. >> we're less than one hour away from students walking out of there classes. alex savidge joining us now live.>> reporter: in preparation in oakland, we are outside oakland tech. you do have some students beginning to do some of the set up for the event. begins one hour from now. students walking out of class to take a stand against gun violence. they will pay tribute to the victims in the schools -- school shooting in parkland, florida. here in oakland these student protesters have the backing of the district officials who have helped facilitate today's action. yesterday organizers were handing out flyers

florida -- parkland, florida. a teacher told the first-graders in her school that if there is a shooter, stay away from the windows and get on the floor. is there any sane person in america who believes that is what the founding fathers had in mind with the second amendment? that is why we are here today. that's why the students from parkland have inspired students across the unit is states of america to finally stand up and -- enough.i'm not. i have to put it in as straight terms as i can. the 17 lives in parkland, florida are worth more than the weak response we have heard from this committee and the president. [applause] i believe when 97% of the american people agree we should have universal background checks to keep guns out of the hands of people who misuse them, we ought to listen. when overwhelmingly americans say we have got to get rid of assault weapons and these high-capacity magazine clips, we've got to listen. when they tell us the sale of long guns, rifles, and others to people under the age of 21 is

that's what these students at parkland are saying to us know that's what students all over country are saying to us now. this is about your future. this is about -- your children. and they're asking us us whether children matter more or political contributions matter more? oh urge my colleagues finally let's not produce another goose egg in this body let's not come together after a horrible tragedy when there are meaningful steps background checks but i ask my colleagues especially majority leader to enable us to have this debate on the floor so that we can take meaningful steps of the kind that we know will make our community cacher and with that mr. president, i yield the floor. >> plment, i rise to speak about the mass murder in florida last month and i ask to rise a simple question thatam millions of americans in every apartment of their table is asking is congressss finally going to do anything meaningful about gun violence? when will huff be enough? what will it take for this body to move beyond the same talking points that we hear after every mass shooting? and actually do somet

it's parkland. you would never have expected it would have been our school. >> reporter: but it was your school. >> exactly. >> reporter: now what are you saying? does it go beyond today? can you sustain this kind of energy into some legislative action? >> we won't stop fighting until something changes. legislatures need to do their job. they work for us and not doing what we want them to do. 97% of americans believe in universal background checks. it's in the error of margin. we are to this point universally agree we need to do something in our nation, but none of our legislatures are going to do something. so we'll start until they do something. >> reporter: in florida your legislatures have done something. they passed a gun reform, measure that said they changed the age requirement for when someone can get a gun to 21 instead of 18. how does this make you feel quickly? >> that's a start. that's a step in the right direction. but i don't think that really is as effective. because the man in the po

comenzaremos nuestra cobertura en vivo desde parkland junto a eli y angÉlica gonzÁlez.avi, carolina, aquÍ se tenÍa previsto que este workout no se realizara en la parte interna sino -- externa sino la parte interna. luego los muchachos decidieron salir y decir que no se rinden y no tienen miedo, y que esto es sÓlo el inicio de un movimiento en el cual ellas van a lograr porque tiene la convicciÓn de hacerlo, que haya algÚn cambio la legislaciÓn para el control de armas. aquÍ vino gente de todo coral springs, para clan y comunidades vecinas para competir a estos muchachos de que salgan adelante el este proceso de buscar cambios y que esta masacre no vuelva a repetirse. vimos recuerdos de lo que pasÓ hace 30 dÍas aquí. carolina: nos gustarÍa pedirle a tu camarÓgrafo, angÉlica, que mostrÓ poquito lo que se ve en la parte de atrÁs de esta toma seguramente es un tributo a los estudiantes. quÉ has podido conversar con ellos? quÉ se dice? angèlica: en ese momento la gente ha dicho acercÁndose poco a poco, carolina y tambiÉn trayendo mÁs recuerdos, globos, peluches, mensajes y

the emotional high point -- emma gonzalez, a parkland survivor on stage for 6:20. the amount of time it took the shooter to turn her community upside down. [ chanting "never again" ] >> the crowd there chanting never again. incredibly powerful moment. david wright joins us live from pennsylvania avenue, and david, you were out there all day and you were telling me earlier, the crowds and the concerns went well beyond violence in our schools. >> that's right, they're against gun violence in all its forms, tom. while we did meet one or two people who wanted to ban guns, the vast majority of the people that we met today say that they want what seem to be reasonable restrictions. getting rid of the high-capacity magazines. getting military-style weapons out of the hands of civilians. of course, the gun rights community sees that as a slippery slope. >> david wright leading us off tonight. david, thank you. >>> and president trump had no comments as rallies were taking place nationwide. the president backing away from his own calls for tougher background checks and rais

and i am proud to say that parkland is my home. [ cheers and applause ] parkland is the heart of this would not have received as much attention if it weren't for the affluence of our city. because of that, however, we share the stage, today and forever, with those who have always stared down the barrel of a gun. [ cheers and applause ] this issue is undoubtedly an epidemic that affects communities of all classes, an epidemic that the center for disease control does not have the funds to research. this disease continues to spread, even though we have discovered the cure. but our government officials close their ears because it involves change, a change that does not align with their own agenda. that is why parkland cannot and will not do this alone. there is strength in numbers. and we need each and every one of you to keep screaming at your own congressmen. don't be scared just because they have "senator" in front of their name. our elected officials have seen american after american drop from a bullet. and instead of waking up to protect us, they have been hitting the snooze button.

911 caller: "parkland, florida."in another, you can hear a mother trying to comfort her daughter.her: "it's ok, it's ok."natsot / 911 call / girl crying: "oh my god."natsot / 911 call / man: "they said put your hands up." natsot 911 call / woman in background: "i love you, i love you. it's gonna be fine, hide somewhere and play dead." as the terror unfolded, officer peterson stayed outside the building. his lawyer said later peterson believed those gunshots were originating from outside.the timeline now clearly shows peterson telling dispatch it was inside the 1,200 building. sheriff scott israel, broward county florida:"what i saw was a deputy arrive at the west side of building 12, take up a position. and he never went in."adding to the chaos, there were separate 911 systems used by the broward county sheriff's office and the coral springs police department, meaning they couldn't communicate with each other. coral springs police: "39 white male rotc uniform. burgundy shirt. last seen in the three story building north parking lot."the police spotted the gunman, but couldn't relay

florida just adopted it in the wake of the parkland shooting. authorities stop three people who were dangerous to themselves and others. mike: including the brother of the shooter in the parkland situation. when you leave here, you are headed up to the state and attending marches tomorrow in hartford, enfield. if i know you, you may even it a few -- axiom am reported that the latest tally is 832 marches around the world tomorrow. what will be the effect? sen. blumenthal: i think it will continue the social movement. that is a marathon, not a sprint. achieving legislation, a lot of it will be done at the state level just like connecticut passed some of the strongest in the nation gun laws. connecticut with the strongest laws is at the mercy of the weakest because guns have no respect for safe. they cross them in previously. we need national standards. the reform will be furthered by these marches across the states. i think the marches also will help to galvanize and mobilize t he voters for the next election. butave hope -- i have hope no great c
