Local students to join National School Walkout set for Friday
Several Anchorage high schools are conducting walkouts Friday to mark the 19th anniversary of the mass shooting at Columbine High School in Colorado, part of a campaign against gun violence revitalized by survivors of this year's Parkland, Fla. high-school shooting. String Theory High School student Akili Farrow said, "This can honestly happen to anybody anywhere at any time".
She said the walkout is one of many actions local students have taken since the shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School. We are here today to commemorate those who died at Columbine 19 years ago.
An hour before the walkout, officials say a pupil began shooting inside Forest High School in Ocala, Florida.
Big Bend Now states that the students have left their classes despite having been told they will receive punishments that are harsher than usual. "I'm proud that they were able to have their voices heard today". She's looking for candidates who will support federal rules governing extensive background checks for all gun owners and routine mental health checks for police officers, she said.
"This shouldn't be a reality, but it is".
