Alright FELLOW PARENTS, LISTEN UP.
I have had ENOUGH. And i know you probably have too.
Yes, I am talking about the repeat trauma in Chicago yesterday, on a day that was supposed to celebrate the joy of living in this great nation. 1/N

Each death was a preventable casualty, if only WE had acted a little bit swifter. A little bit sooner.
Adninistration will only ever have data on deaths. Deaths and open wounds, the number treated for the wounds that bleed openly?

But what about the unseen wounds? The wounds in babes too small to express their grief in words? The wounded hearts of all the people left destroyed and heartbroken with the TRAGIC. UNNESCESSARY loss of their loved ones?

About 21,000. That’s the number of gun-related deaths/year it is going to take before Americans find the cultural & political backbone to “do something.” About 21,000 people were killed in the United States in 2020 in a gun homicide, unintentional shooting, or by police.

So it seems we’ve reach the essential threshold, especially if you add the 24,000 Americans who ended their lives by gun in 2020.
Why 21,000? Because in 1982 about 21,000 Americans were killed in drunk driving accidents.
