teen's t-shirt I saw at recent protest: "If I die in a mass shooting,

drop my body on the steps of Congress."

The NRA has put our children on the front lines and they know it.

Honestly, what will it take for these cowards to stand up to the gun lobby?

when kids can die in a mass shooting just about anywhere: school, concert, church/mosque, movies, etc. School shootings were much more rare when I was a teen.

And contrary to Trump supporter memes, nobody brought a gun rack with guns in it to school back then. They might have a gun rack on their truck, but it would be empty.
