The inhumane and brutal killing in Robb Elementary Texas has left everyone speechless. The insane killing of 21 people by a 18-year-old boy is just unacceptable as the families are in deep grief. People are now scared of sending their children ot schools. This comes after brutal killing in Buffalo two weeks earlier and now in Texas.

"There’ve been more mass shootings than days in the year. … Our kids are living in fear,” Senator Chris Murphy said in his speech.

He stated that it happens only in USA and such mass shootings need to be stopped as soon as possible and asked the lawmakers to not run for senate seats if they are unable to control such unfortunate incidents.


He spoke for five minutes and spoke about the trauma the Sandy Hook School shooting survivors had to endure since it happened back in 2012. He said that Texas people would never be the same, comparing them to those affected by the shooting at Sandy Hook. He went on to say that there has to be a way where lawmakers to figure out something to prevent such shootings and mass murders.

He begged his colleagues and said that he would literally go down on his knees and hands to take the path forward. They would be sending all the prayers and love they can send, but without a solution, there is no end to this. He said that he wanted the lawmakers to work with them and do something about these killers who have broken brains, and they see the government doing nothing after mass shootings.
