er, organized a peaceful sit-in for
sensible gun laws inside the U.S.
Capitol with 170 elected Demo-
cratic Party officials, but new leg-
islation was stalled with Republi-
can opposition.
It is also important to note that
mass shootings, like the slaughter
of Black parishioners at the AME
Baptist Church in Charleston, S.
C. by a white racist consumed by
hate, are a uniquely ‘American’
public health problem.
When mass shootings hap-
pened in New Zealand and in
Canada, both countries took quick
action to ban assault weapons and
ban high capacity magazines. The
U.S. lags far behind in addressing
this problem.
At our February forum, the
question was asked, “How does
gun violence impact elders?”
The answer is both directly, and
indirectly. The mass shootings
at the South Carolina church, at
a mosque in New Zealand, and
at the Tree of Life synagogue in
Pittsburgh, each targeted vulnera-
ble elder church goers.
Vulnerable targets also include
the young, like the students who
were shot and killed at Colum-
bine, Sandy Hook, Parkland and
other schools. It doesn’t matter
in a gun-saturated society wheth-
er innocent victims are praying in
church, or studying in the class-
room, gun violence impacts us all.
As the late Sen. Robert F. Ken-
nedy said, himself a victim of gun
violence in 1968, if we want to
‘seek a newer world,’ we need to
mitigate -- and to halt -- the public
health menace of gun violence in
our society.
