While the Thief-in-Chief™ continued sulking in Florida on Saturday, protesters from across the nation took part in what the New York Times (paywall) described as huge rallies sparked by the mass shooting in Florida last month:

Hundreds of thousands of protesters, outraged by a recent massacre at a South Florida school and energized by the students who survived, thronged in streets across the globe in protests on Saturday, demanding action against gun violence in their most ambitious show of strength yet.

New York Times (paywall) columnist Steve Israel’s opinion piece begins:

It has been 38 days since the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla.; 174 days since the shooting at a concert in Las Vegas; 1,011 days since the killings at a church in Charleston, S.C.; and 1,926 since the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

…and yet, lawmakers continue to equivocate. The young people spearheading this nationwide outcry against gun violence are correct when they chant, “…enough is enough…”. If our elected officials are unwilling to refuse NRA contributions and shudder at the thought of NRA-sponsored smear campaigns targeting their fragile egos, then those elected officials need to be replaced with individuals committed to exposing the NRA as the fraudulent non-profit it is, gleefully trading on the fears of ignorant Americans and intent on promoting a xenophobic, nationalist agenda.
