I believe that we need a march to discuss curbing violence, period. Why just gun violence. Ya think the Pima County Sheriff's Department will let us use "their" facilities to launch a media hype?
I want to show how many graves are occupied by people that are domiciled there because they were prevented from having the one thing that could have saved them -- a gun.
If it saves just one life, isn't it worth it.
Any guesses on how many mothers would join us? Just as a trial balloon why not ask around and see how many mothers are REALLY willing to participate in such a march.
