#NationalSchoolWalkout
Students across the nation are organizing to hold another walkout on April 20, the 19th anniversary of the shooting at Columbine High School. Launched by a Connecticut high school student, the student-run event encourages students to wear orange, participate in the walkout, and organize events in their community.

For more information, follow their official Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram accounts and join their efforts at Change.org.

March For Our Lives March 24 in DC and sister cities.
School safety is not a political issue. There cannot be two sides to doing everything in our power to ensure the lives and futures of children who are at risk of dying when they should be learning, playing, and growing. The mission and focus of March For Our Lives is to demand that a comprehensive and effective bill be immediately brought before Congress to address these gun issues.

Participants are also coming together to register voters at various marches, to ensure that outrage today will translate to high turnout during November’s midterm elections.

policy of guns-everywhere-for-everybody is coming home to roost, and its victims are forming a ground swell of resistance. The NRA/ILA/GOA/GOP/Libertarian/Koch Brothers death merchants are rapidly going into panic mode due to the ever-expanding support for gun control all over the country.

The Second Amendment does not prohibit the sensible regulation of lethal weapons concerning what type of weapons can be manufactured and sold, where they can be sold and carried, or reasonable regulations and restrictions for the purchase of a deadly weapon.

Second Amendment extremists will scream "unconstitutional" when these laws start popping up around the country, but that dog no longer hunts. Too many innocent lives have been lost due to senseless gun violence, and the victims are beginning to resist and to take action.
