Why do this story? Any chance of something positive? Interviewing victims reminding them about their trauma is dark and not something people want to read.
Let them move forward in peace. -
First, yes it is something positive. It's empowering for survivors. Next, these survivors chose to be interviewed. They weren't interrogated. Finally, you may not want to learn about their experience, but others do. It can help to educate others towards common sense gun laws.pic.twitter.com/wk4DMbi5Cs

I guess we all have our opinion.

And one trying to portray a voluntary interview as anything but...is disingenuous at best that weaves a false narrative.

Okay then Kahil, thanks for your comments. Most folks care about gun laws and yes it's important to stop it tragedy! To be frank, it becomes morbid to hear the horrific details close up. It becomes something else in my opinion. Voyeuristic and ghoulish.

And now you're conflating activism with voyeurism...wow...

Sigh. Oh America.

Yes, because there are no disfiguring violent crime problems in the rest of the world, right? No problems with stabbings, acid attacks, bombings, burnings, shootings... It's only America where this is a problem. Exclusively.
