Last night my friend Amber and I went to a benefit event for Keeping the Promise sponsored by Enough is Enough Media which is an organization that creates media content and conducts research committed to understanding and finding the root causes and effects of under-regulated firearms in society. The mission of the Sandy Hook Promise is to help the community heal and to be advocates for change by bringing together a great majority of Americans who agree that we must find and implement common sense solutions to address the causes of gun violence. One of the main issues of concern is the gun show loophole. Federal law allows people who sell guns to avoid running background checks or keeping records by calling themselves occasional sellers, and these sellers often congregate at gun shows. The loophole provides criminals and mentally unstable people with easy access to firearms without having to worry about any background checks. Here are some online resources.

It was a very touching and eye opening evening. There is a need for urgent action because the consequence of doing nothing is more senseless loss of life.
