Parkland Shooting Survivor on Wisconsin School Shooting: 'Politicians Don’t Give A Shit'

Huff Post  

A resident places flowers outside the Abundant Life Christian School on Dec. 17, 2024, in Madison, Wisconsin, following a shooting there on Monday. AP Photo/Morry Gash David Hogg, a survivor of the 2018 Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting and cofounder of the gun control organization March For Our Lives, called out the Democratic Party after Monday’s school shooting in Wisconsin, saying the party has “failed to connect” with voters. “Today’s shooting is yet another reminder that our politicians don’t give a shit about us or our lives,” Hogg said in a statement Monday. “And it underscores the importance of our elections and how dangerous it is that the Democratic Party massively failed to connect with people this year.” A 15-year-old student killed a teacher and another student and injured six others Monday at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison. On Monday, Hogg wrote on X that the shooting is “another reminder” of “how much work we have to do to end gun violence.” “We can’t give up hope because without it we will never end gun violence,” Hogg wrote.
