MIAMI – Following a collection of mass shootings which have sparked nationwide consideration, the trouble to succeed in elected leaders to speak about gun reform is mounting.

Meanwhile, exterior a coalition of academics, dad and mom and survivors gathered to echo the message that motion to stop extra shootings is critical.

“These are our kids, these are people who go to church who went to grocery stores, who worked in a hospital, guns can’t be more important than people, and no one is asking us for us to do anything about the second amendment,” Randi Weingarten, from the American Federation of Teachers mentioned to the group.

Many in attendance referred to as for what they time period cheap gun security rules reminiscent of background checks, elevating the age to buy an AR-15 throughout the nation to 21, and a restrict on high-capacity magazines.  

“There were good guys with guns and they only proved to be cowards with guns. We need to address how to stop a shooter from getting on campus in the first place and how to stop them from getting them from an AR-15 to begin with otherwise we’re endangering the lives of law enforcement our students and our teachers and we can’t do that, these kids are dying,” David Hogg, a former Marjorie Stoneman Douglass scholar and March for Our Lives Co-founder mentioned.

For some, this dialogue has reached a flashpoint.  

CBS4 requested Shook what if leaders as soon as once more do nothing, she mentioned, “Then we’ll remember in November.”
