it’s time for children to be able to
go to school with as much safety
in their school environment as-we
can give them. And that means
change,”
Kemp, a registered Republican,
wants to create a dialogue with
government leaders and voters and
come to an agreement that will
keep people safe and hold gup own­
ers accountable for who their guns
kill. The ultimate goal is. to see leg­
islation that preserves gun owner’s
rights and keeps the public protect­
ed from gups in the wrong hands.

Kemp has connected with the

families and victims o f several
shootings across the country includ­
ing the victims and families o f the
Gabby Giffords and Columbine
shootings. The past several months
have had him busy experiencing
the dynam ic.of a country’s heated
dialogue. -
Kemp, who spoke for about
10 minutes, outlined some ideas
the group would like to present
that would be palatable to govern­
ment lawmakers. They included
convincing the leadership o f the
National Rifle Association to be
more in line with its membership to
gamer support from that gun own­
ing base. Kemp believes a majority
o f NRA members would support
stricter laws mandating gun safes
and trigger locks. The ultimate goal
is to see legislation passed that
will keep guns out o f the hands o f
people like Jacob Tyler Roberts,
the shooter in the Clackamas Mall
tragedy, who used a stolen gun.
