Guns, weapons violence!

What do you think societies should be doing - To the extent that they can do anything? 

Recently, one father, reminding us of the ongoing threat, wrote:

"My son, Daniel, was a smart, quiet kid. He'd just become a straight-A student, and he was overcoming his shyness as a new member of the debate team.

On April 20th,1999 my beautiful, bright 15-year-old son was killed by two teenagers with guns in the library of his High School -- one of 12 innocent kids who lost their lives for no reason at all. It's been 14 years since that horrible day -- 14 years of fighting so no family has to grieve like ours did....yet the battle rages on....."

These tragedies keep happening, and so far,  the US Congress (like many other Governments the world over, has failed to take common-sense action to stop them.

Even though 9 in 10 Americans have agreed that expanding background checks would help close the loopholes that put guns in the hands of dangerous people and prevent future violence.

Today, people around the world are still begging for action to ask members of Governments: What will it take to finally act to prevent this kind of violence from continuing and from plaguing out communities?
