For everyone saying assault rifles are "military grade weapons" you clearly haven't seen what the US military has. We can't have fully automatic weapons legally. For those saying we need to have background checks and keep guns out of the hands of unstable people WE DO, go and buy a gun just to see that, if you have any violent history or history of mental instability without proof of reform, you can't buy a gun legally. Doing a little walk on a street holding up signs is only going to annoy people, not solve anything. Smart people don't want guns just because "Ooohh I can kill stuff!" You idiots, they want them to protect themselves. Let's not forget that something like 99% of mass shootings (4+ people, which they are trying to change to 6+ people in order to bias the statistics against assault rifles) are done with a handgun. Start thinking critically and actually learning facts before spewing nonsense. I didn't go to war and get shot for dumbasses like this.

This Saturday, March 24, we March For Our Lives

If you stand with the students and activists of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and the 30,000 people killed by guns every year, we’re asking you to turn out for the March For Our Lives. It’s time we say #NeverAgain and end gun violence. 

There are 828 sibling marches planned in conjunction with the main march in Washington DC. This is global, and chances are there is one near you. 

We understand that not everyone can attend a march, so we want to make it easy for everyone to participate. Your voice matters, even if you can’t be there in person. That’s why we’re creating a virtual space with optional ways for everyone to participate:

Join us this Saturday as we livestream the March For Our Lives starting at 12 p.m. EST. The livestream will be at the top of every dashboard on every phone, computer, and tablet that uses Tumblr that day.

There’s going to be an @action-packed dashboard takeover with original art sourced from the Tumblr community and @creatrs.

Sign the petition and make your voice heard.

Donate to March For Our Lives, if you can.

You can show your support that day by posting your illustrations, your poems, your promises—anyway you want to express yourself. We even have stickers to add to your photos, if you want. They’re a collaboration between Tumblr Creatrs (@creatrs) and our friends at Kanvas. 

They’re in your app now. Make sure to tag your posts with #NeverAgain so everyone can see your support.

This is it, Tumblr. This is how change happens.  When people ask #WhatWillYouDo, you can point them to Saturday, March 24; To the march you participated in, the money you donated, or the messages you spread across the globe with social media.

Good luck and stay safe.

I don't know how this works.

I'm a 95 year old man who had a white mother, black father and no regrets.
