On the current trajectory, we will all experience the horrors of gun violence. How many people have to die before the American people say that the right to live is more important than the right to own a gun? This is about money and power: gun manufacturers making lots of money and the NRA keeping corrupt politicians in power. And innocent people will continue to be gunned down.

It’s the American way.
