3 ways you can honor Parkland victims

Ending gun violence is about lives. Honor victims with action today. [Honor with Action 2.14]( Dear {NAME}, One year ago today, 17 students and faculty members were murdered in a mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Today we reflect on the tragedy of the amazing individuals whose lives were senselessly cut short that day and are filled with anger that the wake up calls that were the mass shootings at so many places including Columbine, Virginia Tech, and Sandy Hook failed to inspire real action beyond thoughts and prayers. But post-Parkland, we finally learned one thing: Ending gun violence isn’t about sides. It’s about lives. Yours, mine, our families, neighbors, coworkers, communities. We are in this together. In the year since the tragedy in Parkland, Americans, led by our nation’s youth have risen up like never before. We’re saying enough to gun violence. Enough headlines and TV crews that move on after a day. Enough prayers. Enough funerals. Enough. [Share on Facebook]( Share on Facebook Today, we’re turning our outrage, anger, and grief into action.
