“...we need action NOW.”
After the shooting at the University of North Carolina Charlotte , several former Marjory Stoneman Douglas students and families of those killed during the shooting at the Parkland, Florida high school, called for action to be taken, although they disagreed with the path forward.
During a discussion at the White House in the days following the Parkland shooting, Andrew Pollack, whose daughter, Meadow, was killed, made a plea in favor of school safety. At the time, he argued it wasn’t a partisan issue and schools should be treated the same way as airports, which he noted, had new policies put in place immediately after the September 11, 2011, terror attacks.
Andrew’s son, Hunter, agreed that the time to act was upon America but took a different approach about what had to be done. Hunter, a Florida State University student, posted on Twitter that tomorrow, he’ll sit in a class with 200 students with “zero protection.” “If you believe more guns are the solution, you are wrong,” Guttenberg wrote. “We have a problem in this country and if you argue with that, you are part of the problem.”
Alex Wind, another co-founder of March for Our Lives, posted on Twitter that “we need action NOW” and called on lawmakers from both sides of the aisle to act.
