They are the pictures and emotions we all felt.
Friends and partners out for a fun night, ending with a mass shooting.
Our hearts broke as millions of us watched parents such as Christine Leinonen begging to find her son.
"For the parents who had gay sons, they saw me desperate to just spend one more second with my gay son. What I wouldn't do to find out he was alive."
Christopher Leinonen died along with 48 other people.
In the year since the gunman bought guns at a local gun store and went on the murder spree, we found there have been no new national restrictions on gun purchases. |

| That is because restrictions on law-abiding people is unconstitutional, and you can't put people in jail due to what they MIGHT do! |

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
