Team ENOUGH

We recognize that gun violence disproportionately impacts Black and Brown communities in the U.S., that disagreements and perceptions of disrespect too often end in violence, that suicide is the leading cause of gun deaths, that police violence is gun violence, that firearms in domestic violence situations often lead to tragedy, that unlocked guns are dangerous to those inside and outside the home, and that hate combined with easy access to firearms is deadly.

In order to tackle these issues, we must pass stronger gun laws and address how guns have oversaturated our communities, creating easy access to firearms. But we must also address how systemic racism has facilitated environments where police brutality, white supremacy, poverty, unemployment, lack of affordable housing, poor education, homophobia, lack of accessible healthcare, and a criminal punishment system thrive. We must address all of these issues if bloodshed is to stop running rampant in our communities.
