See below for video from today’s student protest at NRA headquarters in Fairfax, Virginia, marking the two-month anniversary of the school shooting in Parkland. As The Hill reports: “The crowd, including Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting survivor Aalayah Eastmond, gathered outside the NRA headquarters two months to the day that the Florida mass shooting left 17 people dead. Those gathered held signs reading ‘Sensible Gun Laws Now’ and ‘NRA Stop Killing Our Kids’ while chanting ‘hey hey, ho ho, the NRA has got to go.” Great to see the continued activism by students, who hopefully will become voters when they turn 18 and turn out in droves to vote all gun industry tools out of office.

Aalayah Eastmond and her mom Stacey Llewellyn came all the way from Parkland to tell the @nra we’ve had #enough of politicians doing the gun lobby’s bidding. It’s time for real leaders in Congress. #VoteThemOut #gunreformnow pic.twitter.com/6coBexojkl

We are tired of the @NRA dictating gun laws. It’s time for reform- reasonable restrictions are consistent with the #2A. pic.twitter.com/caOByQKnEn
