KEEPING OUR KIDS SAFE!
New Yorkers Against Gun Violence
& Million Mom Chapters strive to build awareness
of the impact of gun violence and lobbies for sensible
gun legislation on the city, state and federal levels.
§
8 young people are killed by gun violence on an average
day in America. 30,000 people are killed per year -
that's the equivalent of a NYC marathon!
§
The gun industry's distribution systems makes guns
available to criminals and juveniles through "straw
purchases" in which a person prohibited by law from
purchasing a gun has another person complete the
required paperwork on their behalf.
§
An everyday altercation can turn into a deadly tragedy.
Come learn how you can get involved and help make a
difference in your community to keep illegal guns off
the streets and out of the hands of youth and
criminals. Gun violence is a serious epidemic that
takes the lives of innocent victims.
