SAN FRANCISCO -- Mass shootings and gun violence have become common headlines these days even as the battle over gun laws continues. On Sunday, a colorful expression of support for stricter gun laws was held at the entrance to the Golden Gate.
"I'm so happy that you're here, wanting to take action with us," event organizer Alex Navarro told the crowd. "Showing up means so much to the survivors." "Go to the hospital, that bullet is still there. When I get a checkup, that bullet is still there," he said. "It's a constant reminder that, you know, gun violence is real every single day and it can happen to anybody."
"It's out of control," Bolle said. "Mental health is an issue but it's absolutely not the issue. It's the guns."
