Vice President Kamala Harris announced the creation of a new national office to support “red flag” laws in an effort to push for gun control legislation following her tour of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
Ballistics experts fired at least 140 bullets at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Friday in a significant reenactment of the tragic 2018 Parkland massacre as part of an ongoing lawsuit that accuses former Broward Sheriff’s Deputy Scot Peterson of failing in his duty to protect the victims.
In response to the life sentence given to the shooter who murdered 17 people at a Parkland high school, the Florida Legislature approved a bill on Thursday that would soon remove the requirement for unanimous jury recommendations before judges can impose death sentences.
