Our sympathy to each victim's family and friends in Brooklyn, Gilroy, El Paso and Dayton. We send our thoughts and our promise to continue to work to stop this violence to them and to each of the injured. Brooklyn, NY - 1 death and 11 injured, Gilroy, CA - 4 deaths and 13 injured in El Paso, TX - 20 deaths and  24 injured, Dayton, OH - 9 deaths and 26 injured. Join us to mourn and then act for them. Ohio Legislators and the Governor need to act like they care about you and your family instead of the gun lobby. It is shameful that certain legislators are still pushing bills to allow permitless carry, stand your ground and carrying loaded weapons everywhere while reducing penalties. Nationally Presidential candidates are calling for action and Ohio Senator Brown is calling for the US Senate to vote on the background check bill immediately. There is no need for the public to own assault weapons. No need for the large capacity magazines.  Assault weapons let these shooters kill so many in so little time. Call Governor DeWine, your Ohio elected representatives, and US Congressional members from Ohio. Dayton is Representative Mike Turner's distict. Tell them ENOUGH!  We all own the problem. The time for action is today!
