"Enough is Enough!" Masses Turn out to Turn the Tide on Gun Violence in our Society

"Enough is enough!" was a clear & compelling message from the masses in NYC who along with 2 students from Stoneman Douglas High School in FL, mothers who lost children in the slaughter at Sandy Hook elementary and NYC's own celebrity Paul McCartney joined together to make their voices heard.  McCartney wearing a t-shirt that read "We Can End Gun Violence" addressed the crowd.  "This is what we can do, so I'm here to do it.  One of my best friends was killed in gun violence  right around here, so it's important to me."  It's important to every student, parent and citizen to put an end to the senseless slaying of young people at their schools, the public attending concerts or fatalities caused by gun shootings.  Some of the other signs amongst the estimated 150,000 marchers in NYC read "Arms are for Hugging," "Never Again"  and "Protect Our Children".  The March for Our Lives shows no signs of relenting its intent to reforming lax gun laws.  Several sensible essential demands are:
1. the ban on assault style weapons
2. universal background checks
3. voting out politicians who receive NRA funding.

This revolution to save lives from future killings shows no sign of relenting.  Casey Sherman, 17, of Parkland School in FL spoke to the Washington DC crowd "My love for Parkland had taken on a whole new meaning.  After all this heartbreak, we have come back stronger than ever.  Those 17 people did not die in vain.  We will stop at nothing until we make real, lasting change."
President Trump has waffled on gun control because he's beholden to the NRA . He signed only minor background checks and school safety measures.  His insane plan to arm teachers is exacerbating an already dangerous and lethal situation in schools.  He is embracing the NRA by promoting more gun sales.
In speaking to some of the students in the march I questioned their fear of future shootings.  "Of course, we're aware that shootings have become all too common an occurrence instilling unease where we should feel safe and that is why we're out in force.  Enough is enough!"  One thoughtful teen added another reminder.   "We as students should be looking for those who are being left out and seek to include them.  All of us can do our part so that other don't feel alienated.  This is the right thing to do. It is what we must do".
