Is this seriously our new normal??

“When you get shot, you need to close your fingers and keep ‘em in,” adds Tammy Kozinski, the drama teacher. “When the bad guy and the police come through, they’ll step all over you, and who will be saying they’re sorry?”

HOLDING DRILLS INSTEAD OF PASSING LAWS? U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan recently said, "Our problem isn't a lack of school security, it's easy access to guns." But after Sandy Hook, several states -including Missouri, Illinois and Arkansas - voted to require every school district to conduct simulated shooter drills.

"One girl, who has fallen on her stomach after getting 'shot,' doesn’t get up. Her body is trembling. It doesn’t take long to realize she is sobbing": http://tinyurl.com/kklco65

Tell Congress to stop asking teachers and students to be the front-line of gun violence prevention. We need new laws, and we need them NOW: http://momsdemandaction.org/take-action/

Heartbreaking.

TODDLER SHOOTS BABY: Last week in North Carolina, a 3-year-old shot his 17-month-old sister. Their father told reporters he "never imagined" his son could climb on a stool and and remove his loaded gun from a compartment on top of his dresser. Thankfully, his daughter is recovering from her injuries: http://dailym.ai/LErM1x

The District Attorney is weighing whether charges should be filed, but the sheriff overseeing the case said, "Regardless of the outcome, the parents have been punished more than any criminal justice system can do to them by this happening."

Let D.A. Rick Shaffer know that there is no such thing as an accidental shooting involving a toddler shooting a baby:
