  In TX another school shooting allegedly by an 18 year old boy. 2 dead and many more injured. How many more must die or hurt before something is done to stop children/adults ease of obtaining fire arms. #momsdemandaction #EndGunViolence #schoolviolence

  No one can be untouched by this tragedy today I see it has made a lot of people rightly very angry I can’t stop thinking about all the parents who’ve lost a child today “They” say it will never end & I don’t believe that “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take this anymore”

  Here we go again - another U.S. president giving his useless ‘thoughts & prayers’ to the victims while doing nothing to stop 18 year old kids from legally buying ASSAULT RIFLES, for the purpose of killing. God forbid they buy alcohol at that age.#WhatAreWeDoing

  Ugh. How many tragedies like this have to happen before we as a country do something, anything, to stop them? My heart goes out to the loved ones of those dead children & teacher. #GunControlNow
