For parents, students, teachers, and citizens who won’t want to lose another child to gun violence

May 24 is the 1 year anniversary of the Uvalde shooting where 19 children and 2 teachers were brutally murdered by a heavily armed monster. Numerous shootings on school and college grounds have happened since then, the most recently the murder of 6 people including 3 children in Nashville.

As a mother, I am so tired of mourning for these children. I am tired of being scared and angry. I want my child to go to school without the risk of her being taken away from me by another maniac with a gun.

I am not here to debate what can, cannot, should, or shouldn't be done about this. The fact is that children are dying.

No other country in the world is experiencing the sheer number of school shootings that are happening in America.

Together, we at r/MothersMarch have decided that on May 24, we will demand to Stop Killing Our Kids! We have had far, far beyond enough. We demand action from our lawmakers. We demand change. We want to be heard.

Our mission is not only for better mental healthcare accessibility in this country, but for federal legislation on firearms. We hope to see laws including but not limited to mandated firearm training and safety courses and continuing education, firearm registration and licensing, and greater waiting times for purchasing firearms.

We plan to march on our states' and nation's capitols on May 24 and demand our politicians prioritize the safety of our country's children. We will not stop fighting, we will never stop protecting our kids.

I am begging everyone who is scared or tired or angry to reach out to your friends and family and neighbors to march for change. To stop. killing. our. kids. This is not just a mission for mothers. This is for all parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, and students who are ready to demand change.

We are organizing and planning and reaching out to other organizations to help spread the word. And if our mission resonates with you, join us at r/MothersMarch.

We are not interested in political debates or convincing anyone other than our politicians that change is necessary. Our primary goal is to move people into action who already feel as we do. If you disagree with our mission, don't join it. To those of you who want the same things, call your politicians, join organizations like Moms Demand Action, go to meetings, and walk out with us on May 24th. STOP KILLING OUR KIDS
