Hundreds of mothers (click here) surged to the White House with other protesters Saturday evening to demand stricter gun control laws in the wake of the horrific mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, that killed at least 20 people.
The powerful, spontaneous “Moms Demand Action” demonstration was one of a series of heartfelt expressions of support and sympathy throughout the nation for the victims of the shootings at a Walmart, in which at least 26 people were injured.
Mothers hoisted signs reading “Coward Congress” and chanted: “Whose house? Our house!”
A representative of the group told The Washington Post that members were meeting nearby for a conference. When the women learned of the massacre, “the tenor and tone of the whole room changed” and participants decided to march, said one of the group’s leaders, Amber Gustafson....
The response time of the Dayton police was LESS THAN A MINUTE and the shooter was still able to kill, wound and maim in the double digits. The police can't do this any better. It makes sense that on a Saturday night the police would be in the area of a popular area of time. The people are there it enjoy themselves and the police want that, too.
Wasn't it Dayton that just went through horrible flooding as well. There is far too much tragedy in this country on a regular basis.
