MIAMI — Moms, teachers, students and gun control advocates gathered outside Sen. Marco Rubio’s office on Friday for gun violence awareness day.
They stood huddled under tents and ponchos as a persistent rain drizzled down over the protest. But it couldn’t dampen their determination.
Their signs showed the names of schools that had been targeted by mass shooters, including Marjory Stoneman Douglas, Robb Elementary, Sandy Hook, Columbine, Virginia Tech. Some of them read “protect your children, not your guns.”
