Community members gathered by the hundreds on the corner of Monte Vista Avenue and Geer Road Saturday afternoon, spurred by the nationwide March for Our Lives movement to rally against gun violence. Students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School started an uprising in protest of school shootings and in support of common sense gun legislation following the Feb. 14 shooting at their school, where a former student gunned down and killed 17 of their classmates and teachers. A nationwide school walkout on March 14 marked the first form of activism by students, and the statement was followed by Saturday’s March for Our Lives.
