The New York Times article "March for Our Lives Highlights: Students Protesting Guns Say ""Enough is enough"" (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/24/us/march-for-our-lives.html) opens up about a movement relevant to our society today and how it is affecting students, families, and the community. Throughout the past few years there has seem to be an increase in school shootings which is scary for everyone because students don't feel safe going to school, and parents have to live in constant fear that there child is never going to come home. As a student and as a human being in general I stand by this movement and what it stands for. In the article it shows how many people teamed up all over the world to support this movement and bring it to light. Although I was not able to walk in my own state, my voice was still being heard by the people who were able to. There is a lot of controversy regarding gun laws and people have a lot of different opinions but the side I lean more towards is we need stricter gun laws which does not mean ban guns for good but to simply have more restrictions on getting them. This article not only showed people coming together but showed why exactly we need to do that in order for things to change.
