      It’s so upsetting that a line was crossed. America crossed that line when CHILDREN died, and no one did anything. If children dying isn’t something that matters to them more than guns or anything that has to do with it, then I don’t know what will.

      natalie raspente I live in broward county Fl where Parkland happened. It was sad to see it in my own town. However , the first thing I said is they didn’t change anything when FIRST graders .... Little 6 & 7 year olds were murdered in their classrooms ..... they will never do anything !!! It’s sad & maddening!

      Couldn't agree more!!! Having 4 children, I put aside all other issues such as immigration; I vote to keep my kids safe so they return home alive each of the 180 days each schoolyear. My kids range in age from 4-17, so I have many school years left, & I honestly dread each day dropping them off, b/c as school shootings increase & laws don't change, they become more & more the norm. Sadly, if laws didn't change after Sandy Hook, I wonder, will they ever? Our next Democratic President needs to declare gun violence a national emergency (there have been very few Americans killed by immigrants, but hundreds, thousands actually killed in mass shootings) & propose some COMMON SENSE GUN LAWS!

    To Alyssa’s mom: you’re so strong, you’re so brave. it could have been more easy to let the pain drag you down but instead you fought back, with the undying love that bonds a girl and her mama together. Thank you for what you’re doing, I’m sorry that there wasn’t someone that fought for your beautiful girl the way you’re fighting for so many children to stay safe. I am sorry for your loss.
    To Alyssa: you may be gone now but your memory will live forever, at your young age you can rest assured that your legacy is one of hope and love and courage. Rest In Peace.

    Brooke - what you did is so important. Please keep doing everything you do with the passion that you do it with. I don’t watch a lot of tv at all... but if you walk into my house the tv is always on and it’s always CNN. I so admire you and when I hear you’re segment on I always try to catch what I can.... really there are four of you that reach me in a way unlike any other... you, Chris, Don and Anderson. Each of you share something in common about what you do that is SO important. Although you are up there every day and we get to know who you are and small parts of your personality and lives... each of you do not make your segment about yourselves and who you are and what you want to talk about. Of course your personalities shine through and but what makes you great, what makes you truly great is that you are the voice of other people... people who for some reason or another whether good or bad, need someone to be their voice. And you should be proud of what you do - because you are the voice of those who need to be heard. Thank you. And thank you to You, Don, Chris and Anderson for being someone else’s voice when it’s so easy to get caught up trying to be your own, as so many others do.
