Here is my story of what happened in the Freshman building. I'm only lucky enough that I came out completely unscathed, but some didn't have the opportunity to come out alive. Please don't let such events happen to ANYONE EVER AGAIN. #NeverAgainMSD
Without concrete action, the cycle of mass carnage in this country will go unbroken.
We need to move towards reinstating a ban on the manufacturing, sale, and transfer of military-style assault weapons currently on the market.
Let me introduce you to H.R. 1808. (1/5)
abbott’s “could’ve been worse” comment is so beyond messed up bc like …. this is the “worse”? four years ago 10 people died, now 21.. does it have to be 40? 80? when do we finally reach “the worst”? how many lives lost constitutes taking action?
There will be more Uvaldes, El Pasos, Sutherland Springs, and Santa Fes until we decide to put the lives of our kids ahead of the political careers of gun lobby politicians like Greg Abbott.
Today in my home state of Texas 18 innocent students were killed while simply trying to get an education. A teacher killed doing her job; an invaluable yet sadly under appreciated job. If children aren’t safe at school where are they safe?
America is so disgusting. When I was living in Ireland, students there never had to fear for their lives like this. Meanwhile, in the US, 14 babies are dead, just like the 14 dead from my high school. And a certain group will only send "thoughts and prayers." #EndGunViolence
Dear Republicans,
The word gay didn’t kill 14 kids and a teacher in Texas.
CRT didn’t do that.
It wasn’t a book you banned.
Or a mask.
It was a gun.
A person armed with a gun killed them.
A gun.
A. GUN.
A motherfucking gun.
@GavinNewsom They did it with my school, they'll do the same with this one. They're never going to wake up so long as it gives them votes and more money in their pockets. Disgusting that children even younger had to go through this. I'm distraught.
A 15-year-old boy was shot and killed while getting a case of water from his father’s car in Philadelphia last week, but you might not have heard about it because it’s the sort of thing that happens every single day in America. It’s long past time we did something about that.
My precious daughter was slaughter with the same type of gun in YOUR state. Shot 6 times with those .223s ripping & tearing through her tiny body. The head shot left a 5 inch hole in her left orbital and blew her brain to bits. So ya. I'll come & take it off your hands. #****Buck
With love, we join @Fred_Guttenberg in honoring the life of his kind and beautiful daughter Jaime and every precious life stolen from us that tragic day.
We will never give up until common sense laws to #EndGunViolence are in place to protect every child in America. #MSDStrong
If there’s one man to take down the NRA and end gun violence in America it’s @fred_guttenberg <— if you don’t already you should follow him.

Is your holiday shopping standing in the way of gun reform? Parkland parents, including @manueloliver00 and @fred_guttenberg, are making it easier for consumers to find out
BREAKING: for the first time in more than 20 years, Congress has appropriated money for gun violence research.
Federal agencies (CDC & NIH) will receive $25M to study gun violence in a government spending deal reached by House & Senate.
THIS.
IS.
A.
HUGE.
VICTORY!
Let’s talk about the AR-15 though.
It is a weapon of war. The AR-15 is the civilian version of the M-16. The sole meaningful difference? A switch that controls how many bullets discharge with a single trigger pull.
Same ammunition as the M-16. Same killing power. #NoRA
