We lack the will.
Maybe these kids will embarrass the pols into it?
We havent for a long time, and it may take a while still. But today over 800 cities not mostly in America but all over the world protested against gun violence today, and just in Washington DC alone there were 800,000 so total, there certainly way more. And once again, just in DC just like the Women's March, more than President Shithole's inauguration too.
I thin it is different this time. These same students are also planning another school walk out in April in memory of Columbine.
And it wasn't just about school shootings either. They had speakers from urban settings and domestic violence too.
But I agree, we had been giving up after the news cycle is over the next day, but no, I see things changing this time.
