Create stricter background checks and mental health screenings in regards to obtaining a gun.
Why is this important?
As students of Rocky Mountain High School (Fort Collins, Co.), it is our unalienable right to stay safe as U.S. citizens. By passively allowing citizens to obtain guns through less than adequate background checks and lenient mental health screenings, the U.S. government in impeding on our rights by allowing our safety to be risked every day at school. In order to maintain a representative democracy, the intention of our founding fathers, you need to hear the cries of U.S. citizens across the nation and create a country that is not willing to protect gun rights over human lives.
