Be sure to check out our previous post on Update of #Never Again Movement & Remember March For Our Lives on March 24, 2018.

Today, students from across the country flooded into streets of Washington D.C. , cities of Florida and elsewhere, totaling 846 events worldwide, to rally and march for stronger gun control law.  This #NeverAgain student movement initiated by surviving students from shootings at Parkland, Florida’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14, 2018, has received tremendous response and support from students and people all over the country.  

But let’s keep in mind that the reason March For Our Lives began: “17 Killed In Parkland Shooting Remembered At March For Our Lives“, below:

Florida legislator Marco Rubio responded to March For Our Lives, tweeting, in italics: “Today many are peacefully exercising their #1A right to march for gun ban.Many support gun ban. But many others see it as infringement of #2A that won’t prevent shootings. Protest is good way of making a point, but making a change will require both sides finding common ground.”

White House deputy press secretary Lindsay Walters said in a statement, in italics: “We applaud the many courageous young Americans exercising their First Amendment rights today….President urged Congress to pass the Fix NICS Act of 2017 and STOP School Violence Act of 2018, and signed them into law….Additionally, on Friday, the Department of Justice issued the rule to ban bump stocks following through on the President’s commitment to ban devices that turn legal weapons into illegal machine guns.”

The Fix NICS Act of 2017 is a United States congressional bill that applies penalties to government agencies for not reporting to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). It was introduced in the 115th United States Congress in the wake of the Sutherland Springs church shooting.  To view the STOP School Violence Act of 2018 summary, please click HERE.

These students have already demonstrated a great deal of impact. They are aiming to continue to call for change in gun control law into the November election.

March For Our Lives event has taken notice by global news network. For example, below, is the coverage of this event by the French network.
These students have already demonstrated great deal of impact. They are aiming to continue to call for change in gun control law into the November election. This is definitely not a group of apathetic students. We should be proud of our Florida students who took the initiative and have the perseverance and tech savvy to gather such global support.  There is hope in the future. Be sure to check out our previous post on Update of #Never Again Movement & Remember March For Our Lives on March 24, 2018 in order to better appreciate the topic of school shootings and gun control.
