With Congress in the grip of the D.C. gun lobby and too many state legislatures failing to act, our cities must lead the way – and we must all continue to demand action that saves lives.

The level of gun violence in our communities is not normal, and we can never think it is inevitable. We – and especially our children – should not have to live like this. That is why I've transmitted my #SafeStorage legislation to council. http://durkan.seattle.gov/2018/05/mayor-durkan-transmits-new-legislation-to-city-council-to-reduce-gun-violence-in-seattle/ …pic.twitter.com/X0Zpt7oGcq

The roots of gun violence are complex, but we know that unsecured, unsafely stored guns help fuel this crisis of violence because they are more likely to cause tragic accidents, fall into the wrong hands, or be used in suicides.

While I agree with your comment. It’ll carry more weight without the personal insult. I’m holding out hope that Mayor Jenny will have a positive influence. To date, I feel let down based on the points you’ve made. Best offense is to elect leaders who will lead.

Thank you for this! So many suicides and unintentional child shootings would be prevented if people would be responsible gun owners and secure their firearms.
