then it s time for victims to be the change that we need to see. anybody can make a positive change. and i mean, we were kids. i am emma gonzalez. i now go by x gonzalez. young people took control of the narrative and told our stories honestly. politicians funded by the nra telling us nothing could have been done to prevent this. we all bs. as a kid being able to look at the politicians and tell them you made a miss take and it hurt people. that s something a lot of people really understood. we want change and we want it now! young people became the new messengers for gun control in america. they say a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun.
the same. i got something important really wrong. i didn t understand back then the full impact that stops were having on the black and latino communities. i was totally focussed on saving lives but good intentions are not good enough. back then i was wrong. i am sorry. tucker: i was focussed on saving lives. that s what the democratic party is making him save. the remarkable piece is that this same michael bloomberg who just apologized for stop and frisk is the single most aggressive and free spending lobbyist for gun control in america. he would disarm suburbia tomorrow. now he is telling you it was
