This is not normal. When people are shot in church, schools, movie theaters & football games we need to take action to change our gun laws. https://t.co/LxKv7TnCQw — Cory Booker November 16, 2019 "High school playoff football should be a cause for community celebration, not the backdrop for panic and terror," Gov. Phil Murphy said in a statement."I am grateful for the lifesaving swift actions of first responders to tend to the wounded, and our prayers are with the victims for a swift and full recovery.
