People Magazine Takes Stand on Gun Violence

People published the phone numbers of all 535 voting members of Congress and asks readers to demand measures to stop gun violence:

“As President Obama said, our responses to these incidents – from politicians, from the media, from nearly everyone – have become ‘routine.’ We all ask ourselves the same questions: How could it happen again? What are we doing about gun violence in America? There are no easy answers, of course. Some argue for stricter gun laws, others say we should focus on mental health issues, some point to a culture that celebrates violence.”

“But this much we know: As a country we clearly aren’t doing enough, and our elected officials’ conversations about solutions usually end in political spin.”
