Statement by the President Three Years After the Parkland Shooting
FEBRUARY 14, 2021 • STATEMENTS AND RELEASES
Three years ago today, a lone gunman took the lives of 14 students and three educators at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. In seconds, the lives of dozens of families, and the life of an American community, were changed forever.

For three years now, the Parkland families have spent birthdays and holidays without their loved ones. They’ve missed out on the experience of sending their children off to college or seeing them on their first job after high school. Like far too many families, they’ve had to bury pieces of their soul deep within the Earth. Like far too many families — and, indeed, like our nation — they’ve been left to wonder whether things would ever be okay.

These families are not alone. In big cities and small towns. In schools and shopping malls. In churches, mosques, synagogues, and temples. In movie theaters and concert halls. On city street corners that will never get a mention on the evening news. All across our nation, parents, spouses, children, siblings, and friends have known the pain of losing a loved one to gun violence. And in this season of so much loss, last year’s historic increase in homicides across America, including the gun violence disproportionately devastating Black and Brown individuals in our cities, has added to the number of empty seats at our kitchen tables. Today, as we mourn with the Parkland community, we mourn for all who have lost loved ones to gun violence.

Over these three years, the Parkland families have taught all of us something profound. Time and again, they have showed us how we can turn our grief into purpose – to march, organize, and build a strong, inclusive, and durable movement for change.

The Parkland students and so many other young people across the country who have experienced gun violence are carrying forward the history of the American journey. It is a history written by young people in each generation who challenged prevailing dogma to demand a simple truth: we can do better. And we will.

This Administration will not wait for the next mass shooting to heed that call. We will take action to end our epidemic of gun violence and make our schools and communities safer. Today, I am calling on Congress to enact commonsense gun law reforms, including requiring background checks on all gun sales, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and eliminating immunity for gun manufacturers who knowingly put weapons of war on our streets. We owe it to all those we’ve lost and to all those left behind to grieve to make a change. The time to act is now.

Its not up for debate

Agree.

Same here.

Well forget finding ammunition on the shelves or prices coming back down to earth.
I think most trapperman members learned from the .22 shortage during the Obummer years.
223 is 80 cents to a buck a round. What will it be in a month or two?

If you thought getting ammo was tough before it's going to be almost impossible now...................................

Midway had some imi 9mm ammo the other day. $1.20 a round. But it was in stock at that moment. I can go ahead and pack up my reloading bench. Wont be any of that available again until that nonsense gets sorted out.

ammo seek is showing a lot of 9mm for sale for less than a buck a round

Local scheels had 9mm for 16.99 a fifty pack.

5.56 55fmj for i think .65 a round.

Bad thing about this time of year is hard to lose stuff in a boating accident.......
