ENOUGH!

The group recalls the slew of similar tragedies across the country in the video, including Columbine and Virginia Tech, and ask: “How many more … colleges, classrooms, movie theatres, houses of faith, shopping malls, street corners? Enough … . Demand a plan. Right now, as a mom, as a dad, as a friend, as a husband, as a wife, as an American, as a human being, for the children of Sandy Hook, demand a plan. No more lists of names. It’s not too soon. It’s too late. Now is the time, before we all know someone who loves someone on that list. No more lists. No more who they might have been, if we had just done something yesterday. It’s time. We can do better than this. It’s time for our leaders to act. Demand a plan right now. Right now. You can demand it. Enough … .”
