I just can't stop thinking about the courage it must have taken for Laverda and Joresse’s families to speak out in the midst of their grief. Their call for increased measures against gun violence really hit home for me. It's sad that it often takes such tragic events to spark these conversations. But I'm hopeful that their voices will lead to real changes that could protect others from suffering the same fate. Has anyone else seen community leaders coming together to propose actionable steps in their areas after incidents like this? It's so important that we all learn to lean on each other and push for a safer future.
