[Sandy Hook Promise @sandyhook]

The shooter who murdered my sweet little Daniel brought 10 30-round magazines with him into Sandy Hook Elementary. In 4 minutes, he shot 154 bullets, killing 20 children and 6 educators. Sign our petition demanding Congress limit the size of gun magazines now. -Mark

@theMMQB can we just not play the anthem? what’s the anthem’s connection to a (non-olympic) sporting event anyway? we don’t play it before a work day, or school day, or concert.
