Once again, we are reminded why gun violence is a human rights crisis.

If you can’t feel safe from gun violence in your home, school, or place of worship, your rights to safety, education, and free religious practice are threatened. pic.twitter.com/gga3qMLKjt

I’m fed up with the inaction on gun violence. People are dying. Too many lives have been lost and too many communities are left to heal. We need leaders who will address this horrifying epidemic and have the courage to speak up.

It is a disgrace that kids today go to school fearful that they could be shot and killed. The American people agree: we must take immediate action to end the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Enough is enough! https://t.co/cYXs6B56ve

This is sickening. We have to keep demanding action even when it feels like we’re screaming into a void. GUN CONTROL NOW.https://t.co/z5HZaXNHRt

The student from Sante Fe High School said “I was scared not shocked.

The United States of America is the only nation in the world with more guns than people.

It's not even close.

We have 103 guns for every 100 people.

Most nations have 5 or fewer guns per 100 people.

It's a predictable recipe for disaster and disaster strikes over & over.

22 school shootings in 2018.

3 in the last week.

How many times must our hearts break hearing news like this – this time in Texas, at #SantaFeHighSchool?

This has to stop.

At least 8 students have been shot and killed at Santa Fe High School.

Prepare to watch the NRA boast about getting higher donations.

Prepare to see students rise up and be called ‘civil terrorists’ and crisis actors.

Prepare for the right-wing media to attack the survivors.

Donald Trump does not care about school shootings.

Donald Trump does nothing to stop school shootings.

Don’t talk to me about the ‘stop school violence act,’ because that does nothing to stop school shootings.

Donald Trump does not care about you or your kids getting shot.

The student from Sante Fe High School said "I was scared not shocked. It's happening everywhere, I knew it was going to happen eventually."

If that doesn't break your heart about the state of mind of our youth in school right now then you may not have a heart.

High school student dragged to swimming pool by teacher speaks out

Garcia’s attorney says Peterson should not have put a hand on the girl. The video shows he even asks other students to help him: “somebody tickle her,” he is heard saying in the 95-second video.

“No means no and stop means stop. This isn’t a situation where she’s attacking a teacher and he’s defending himself. When a woman or a 14-year-old girl says no, it means no,” he said.
