@antivistsdemand @Everytown @sbunified @MomsDemand Actually, no rights were lost. Gun owners still get to own guns. You just have to store them locked and unloaded. So...where's the loss of rights?

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

A big win for the safety of our children and teens: @sbunified passed the first firearm safe storage resolution in Santa Barbara County. Thank you for your leadership and to our local @MomsDemand volunteers for pushing this through! #KeepGoing #watchmework

With all of our children stuck at home, it's more important than ever to practice #safestorage of firearms. Tomorrow @sbunified will vote on a resolution authored by @MomsDemand that would remind parents/guardians that it's the law to safely store their guns.

This Santa Barbara @momsdemand volunteer leader is looking forward to our Town Hall w/ Gun Sense champion @RepCarbajal + gun violence survivor @riromtz + @toniwellen w/ @sbcoalition July 28. Text EVENTS to 644-33 to join us next week!

@AlysMartinezTV 5-7 days is insane!!

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

@SCE I got your message about a potential power outage in Santa Barbara for 5-7 days. That’s insane. If the shutdown does happen, I hope you spend that time burying your lines so families won’t be inconvenienced like this ever again.

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

This is the good news I needed today.

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

BREAKING: Colt Firearms is ending its production and sales of its AR-15 rifles due to lack of public demand.

The @NRA’s #TrumpSlump is the gift that keeps on giving. https://t.co/l83rvVgeiK

Thank you @RepCarbajal for your continuous support on ending gun violence. @MomsDemand here in Santa Barbara applauds you! #NotOneMore #ERPOAct

[Rep. Salud Carbajal @RepCarbajal]

I’m here in @HouseJudiciary, where the markup for my #ERPOAct and other crucial gun safety bills is about to begin. #NotOneMore person should die from gun violence.
We are taking action.

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

Way to show up, Santa Barbara!! Hundreds of people gathered today to demand that our senators take action on lifesaving legislation. So proud of our community, our elected officials, and all of our community partners. @MomsDemand @shannonrwatts #DoSomething #EnoughIsEnough

"Mental illness is certainly a problem in this country. But hate is not a mental illness. Neither is murder."

Americans are 25x more likely to die by gun homicide than in peer countries. It's not because of mental illness; it's because of lax gun laws. https://t.co/dLejvqZTfl

Background checks WORK. @MomsDemand

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

A 29-year-old white supremacist arrested in Boulder, Colorado, had recently tried to buy a gun, but was turned down because a background check determined he was a prohibited purchaser. Police said he’d been searching the sites of mosques and synagogues. https://t.co/8NHazjfcsZ

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

Thank you @AlysMartinezTV for having me on today to talk about @MomsDemand and how we can prevent gun violence.

“We’re asking children to stand up to gunmen because lawmakers are too afraid to stand up to the gun lobby. There isn’t a parent in this country that isn’t terrified.” ~ @shannonrwatts https://t.co/hmg0Zl2ZLC

[Richard Martinez 🟧 @riromtz]

@realDonaldTrump Since you were elected ...

Las Vegas.
Parkland.
Sutherland Springs.

What did you do? Nothing.

You helped create these most recent tragedies with hate filled words.

NOW you want to stand with survivors?

Speaking as a survivor of gun violence: GO STAND SOMEWHERE ELSE.

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

More guns do not make us safer. @realDonaldTrump you should try a new hashtag #MakeAmericaSafeAgain @MomsDemand @shannonrwatts

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

If more guns and fewer gun laws made us safer, America would be the safest nation in the world. Instead, we have a 25 times higher gun homicide rate than any other high income country.

@Sannh13 100%. I’m ready for that conversation 💪🏻

[Kendall Pata @KendallPata]

This is why I do #GunViolence prevention work with @MomsDemand. Gun violence is preventable. El Paso we are with you. No more prayers, just action. #NotOneMore
