Yes, Stoneman Douglas High School Students in Parkland, FLA, survivors of the mass shooting speak up. These Kids are amazing... my new heroes... I am hoping when folks stop and listen, a change of consciousness is possible. We must speak, march, vote, for the kids.
Emma Goldman: "If you don't do anything to prevent this from continuing to occur, that number of gunshot victims will go up and the number that they are worth will go down. And we will be worthless to you."
David Hogg: "The only source of any grieving that I can do at this point is just keep fighting. I have to. There’s no way I can stop because I don’t want anybody else to die from this. If I don’t take action — because our stupid politicians won’t — more are going to die.
If you want some of those names that I’m talking about: Marco Rubio, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, President Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, and so many others that refuse to take action. The fact that Donald Trump called out the Democratic Party for not taking action when they were in full control is disgusting and hypocritical.
The Republicans are in control of the House, Senate, and executive branch — what legislation has been passed about mental health, if that’s what they’re pushing? None.
They’ve made false promises, which has gotten more blood spattered on our high schools, elementary schools, and middle schools."
