Interesting article today about a youth pastor strating a movement in Florida. Here’s a clip from the local NBC affiliate:
MIAMI — After a string of recent shootings that killed several children in South Florida, one church is starting a grassroots movement to stop the violence.
People gathered at Faith, Prayer and Deliverance Church on Northwest 99th Street and 27th Avenue on Wednesday to sign a petition in support of the “No Right To Kill, Stray Bullet” bill. The goal is to get 1 million signatures in support of the bill, which demands life in prison for any act of violence that kills a child.
Youth pastor Anthony Dawkins is spearheading the movement. “We want this to become a national law,” he said. “You shoot a bullet into crowds and hit and kill children, we want life, mandatory. No parole.”

It’s great to see communities rallying for stricter consequences on reckless shootings. Education about gun safety and responsibility is essential—organizations promoting safe firearm practices, especially with firearms like 9mm(https://gunsnprices.com/ammo/handgun-ammo/9-19mm-parabellum) pistols or AR-15 platforms, could really support this initiative.
