US Gun Control: Students across country walk out of schools over safety laws
[]
In the US, crowds of students have walked out of classrooms across the country, demanding tighter gun safety laws. In Washington, they sat with their backs to the White House, a symbolic gesture they hoped might send a message to President Donald Trump. The planned walkouts are part of a movement spearheaded by survivors of last month's deadly shooting spree at a Florida high school. Students from nearly three thousand schools and groups were expected to participate.
