March For Our Lives holds national day of action following mass shootings and congressional hearings on gun violence. Thousands of people filled the National Mall in Washington on Saturday as thousands more marched in cities across the country to demand that Congress act on proposed gun-control measures. The demonstrations come after mass shootings in Buffalo, N.Y. and Uvalde, Texas, that have reinvigorated the national conversation around gun control and led to congressional hearings about possible legislative reform. Mass-shooting survivors and other victims of gun violence lobbied legislators and testified on Capitol Hill last week. Saturday’s events, organized by March For Our Lives, a gun-control advocacy group, included gun-violence survivors, family members of victims and students and teachers. The rallies followed a week of meetings between the group’s representatives and members of Congress. Several thousand demonstrators in Washington braved a light rain and gray skies to cheer speakers while waving signs with slogans such as “Ban Guns, Not Books,” and “Fear Has No Place in Our Schools.” 1 Like

Gun control argument is weak, imagine people marching to have vehicles banned because people are dying whenever there's an accident |

Tell them to vote people who will actually make changes, they will refuse and keep recycling same old fabric. Either Democrats or Republicans, meanwhile there are people who are outside of the system who wants to make drastic changes. Humans are same everywhere in the world. Same thing is happening in Nigeria. This is election period and we're still fighting voting same two old men who have shown no capacity to make desired changes. Be OBIdient and vote Labour party |
