        Vegas and Sandy Hook have made it abundantly clear that, as far as lawmakers go, all they have to offer is thoughts and prayers.

        I don’t think that’s fair. Our lawmakers/politicians don’t care but I feel like we, as a nation care very deeply. This isn’t normal and should never feel normal.

        Our care should reflect in our votes and the push to make a change. If our officials aren’t acting it’s because we haven’t compelled them to
