Dozens of students protested gun violence Friday morning in front of a Broward County high school Friday morning, just miles away from Parkland, Florida, where a mass shooting took place Wednesday.
Students could be seen holding signs urging politicians -- both local and national -- to do something on the issue of gun control.
Several of the signs pointed their criticism at President Donald Trump and one of Florida’s U.S. Senators, Marco Rubio – who has come under fire from some after Wednesday’s deadly shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland due to his accepting of campaign money from various gun rights groups, including the National Rifle Association.
A total of 17 people were killed in Wednesday’s shooting.
