It was really telling to see how that guy poured his guts out right to Trump's face about seeing his best friends be murdered and the effect it's had on him and the rest of his friends only for him to switch right into talking point mode about more guns in schools. It's hard to believe someone, especially the president of the United States, could actually be so dumb not to realize and understand the statistics on school shootings..
Dude, off the top of my head, I can name MJD High, Vegas, Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, Columbine, Aurora, Charleston, Fort Hood (not enough guns I guess..), San Bernardino, Orlando.. I was sitting in the theater waiting to see The Last Jedi when it came out and I had a panic attack before the movie started thinking about this shit.. That's the same thing the people who walk away alive from these things feel; defenseless in your own country. There are so many instances where even if you take every protective measure the GOP is offering, you still won't be safe..
I think it's pretty obvious many of our gun laws lack the ability to actually protect citizens and more gun control regulation needs to be passed. I feel like something about this shooting in Florida kind of tipped the scales where more people are taking notice and getting involved and trying to actually change things. There's a march on Washington on March 14 that people should pay attention to. Gun control is probably going to be a big issue come midterms, too, so pay attention to the position of the person you plan on voting for.
