#Repost @kathleenkjanus with @get_repost ・・・ We must never accept the gun violence in the United States as normal or inevitable. Each and everyone of us needs to demand an end to our country’s gun violence epidemic. Many of you who know me know that in times of tragedy, I try to focus on solutions. I take hope in the creative, impassioned activists and organizations who are offering evidence-based strategies. One such organization is @giffordscourage. This organization was founded by @GabbyGiffords and @ShuttleCDRKelly, and provides legislative analysis to lawmakers and educates the public on what works and what doesn’t. If we are going to keep our communities safe - from Brownsville, Brooklyn to Dayton, Ohio, from El Paso, Texas to Gilroy, California - we need to use equal parts data and tenacity to create real change. .
