Media! It is great to see you talking with survivors of school shootings. Their voices are so important. You must also remember the other mass shootings where survivors are told they are crisis actors and that their loved ones didn't die. Las Vegas, Aurora, Sutherland Springs (1)
Tree of Life, Aurora and others have had the same vitriol spat at them...and let's remember the survivors of shootings across the country that have been told that their loved ones don't matter because it was "gang violence" or "black on black" crime or "accidental" or a (2)
suicide. They have had hate, racism, ignorant statements made to them and no one has paid attention. Your attention MUST go deeper. Gun violence is connected to every social justice in our country. MTG is just the current mouthpiece spewing the vitriol we've all heard for (3)
far, far, far too long. Shine the light on their stories, too. Build the bridges. Connect the dots. Hear their voices. Their loved ones matter, too.
Our collective voices are what will bring change!!
I'll be watching...and waiting. (End)

And Aurora mentioned twice was NOT accidental. One happened in Aurora, Colorado where my daughter was brutally murdered. The other in Aurora, Illinois. Yes, there are THAT many.
