On February 14, 2018, a shooter killed
seventeen high school students and staff
members as well as injured seventeen others
in Stoneman Douglas High School in
Parkland, Florida.
There was no progression in gun reform
laws even after the incident became the tenth
school shooting at the bery beginning of the
year 2018.
The Stoneman Douglas High School
shooting has been ranked one of the top ten
deadliest shooting, according to ABC News.
After the shooting, another gunman opened
fire at Savannah State University on February
24, 2018.
A nineteen year old gunman was arrested
soon followed on March 2 at Central
Michigan University for killing his parents.
A senior at Huffman High School
accidentally shot one of his classmates on
March 7.

Another student from Great Mills High
School, Maryland shot two of his classmates
where one died a week after but the other
thankfully survived the injury.
Alfonso Calderon, Sarah Chadwick, Jaclyn
Corin, Emma Gonzales, Cameron Kasky and
Alex Wind were the students from Parkland,
Florida shooting that decided enough was
enough.
They conducted what is now known as the
March For Our Lives movement to fight for
gun regulation in the United States.
The march began on March 24, 2018, that
was held in Washington.
Improvements have been made since then
as the Florida legislature passed gun control
and school safety laws, according to the
Miami Herald.
A law that provisions a federal background
check passed the House of Representatives
and over 27 states announced 67 laws to
restrict the availability of guns.

It has been year since the tragedy occurred
and it has been a year since improvements
have been made, but the fight is far from over.
Sydney Aiello and an unidentified
sophomore from Marjory Stoneman Douglas
High School have committed suicide recently
according to NPR.
Aiello died on March 22,2019 and the other
student took his own life the next day as a
result of survivors guilt.
Although it has been a year since the march
occurred, it still lives on for the safety of
others because no student, in fact no person,
should ever witness the killing of others and
have to live with that memory everyday.
Rest in peace to all those who lost their
lives from an unjust death, we’ll be marching
for them.
