Every day, I spend seven hours inside a Madison high school. It’s not
all that different from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School or
Columbine. And neither are many of the public elementary, middle and
high schools across the country. I’m 16. I can’t vote, and neither can
most of my classmates. We spend five days a week here, but we don’t get
to pick the lawmakers who decide to let people have murder weapons that
they use to murder the children at our public institutions. This isn’t
just politics to me. To the 50 million children in American public
schools, it’s our lives. Marjory Stoneman Douglas deserved better. Sandy
Hook deserved better. Columbine deserved better. I deserve better. I
can't.
