Thousands of students in the US walked out of their schools this morning to protest against gun violence




Students from 3,000 schools across the US staged a walk-out at 10am this morning, to protest against ongoing gun violence.

The nationwide demonstration was held on the first month anniversary of the latest school massacre, where 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz gunned down 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida

The protest’s organizers say that they wish to highlight the deeply-rooted problem of gun violence across the United States, and get Congress to tighten legislation concerning weapon ownership.
