To honor the memories of the friends/family I have lost to gun violence, I request you enact strict gun laws including background checks.
Why is this important?
I lost two friends to gun violence. I want stricter gun laws. If all those who lost a loved one to gun violence sign this petition for stricter gun laws it will show that gun violence affects far more people than the immediate families of the victims.
Today some 30 Americans are likely to die from firearms, including 17 children and youth under age 24. Since 1980 over 1 million Americans have lost their lives to gun violence.
That translates into many millions of survivors and friends and families of those victims. If you are one of those survivors, please sign the petition and share with friends.
