At noon today, the #MarchForOurLives student-led demonstration for gun reform will commence in Washington D.C., with satellite marches in at least 843 locations on seven continents. Follow along for updates from across the country: thetrace.org/2018/03/march-…
101 children and teenagers have been shot to death in the U.S. since the shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14. Another 209 have been injured: @gundeaths
“I’m marching as a survivor of a gun crime to demand that Congress passes the bill to ban assault weapons, to support the students in Parkland, to honor the victims and survivors of gun violence, and to show the NRA how many people value lives over money.”

Students across the U.S. are leaving class at 10 a.m. local time to demand Congress act to end gun violence. The walkout will last for 17 minutes—one minute for each victim of the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, one month ago today.

Brandon Moore was one of several gun owners contacted by The Trace who didn’t know that a gun stolen from his home had been used in a crime—one that left two families devastated. thetrace.org/features/stole…
In June 2013, Brandon and his family moved into a new home just 30 minutes outside Denver. His wife stashed his loaded .40-caliber Smith & Wesson pistol in a closet.
When Moore went to look for his pistol later, it was gone. He suspected the movers took it. He filed a report. The case went nowhere.

When the #NSA discovered that #Iran may have been buying computer chips from the #UnitedStates routing them through a U.S. ally
&
Potentially supplying them to detonate #bombs against U.S. forces in Iraq & #Afghanistan
It credited so-called economic intelligence with the find.
The solution wasn't a death blow delivered by the #military but rather a new regulation on the export of certain #technologies via the #CommerceDepartment which the #NSA said would end up “saving #American & coalition lives.”

#Florida study finds "mail ballots were 10 times more likely to be rejected than votes cast at early #voting sites or on #election day" and "ballots cast by youngest voters, blacks and Hispanics were much more likely to be rejected."

Around a third of Americans mail in their ballot — boy is that dangerous. There’s a million ways to not count your mail-in ballot. gregpalast.com/have-you-check…
DON'T GO POSTAL—OR I'LL BE TEMPTED TO GO POSTAL ON YOU!!!

At dinner, I learned more about corruption + racism built into society by our masters. A book we discussed (Zinn) was used as part of this "Left" resource's bibliography. I had to share. [A thread]

@BlackSocialists - thoughts on this resource?

historyisaweapon.com/indextrue.html
It very simply lays out the case that we are all being controlled. It covers hidden history of the United States including their (and, due to the systems created by our masters, our) racism. 

#racism #systemicracism #history
If you haven't been in school for a while (or are in a terrible school), some of the words might trip you up. Dictionary.com and Wikipedia.org are two good resources to help you.
