Duluth and Minneapolis tour

I spoke at a wonderful gun violence remembrance garden in Duluth that the Million Mom March chapter organized.


Me and Joan, who organized the events in Duluth.


I was in the Duluth paper the morning after the bell ringing ceremony.


This is Dennis Henigan and me at a book signing event in Duluth. Dennis wrote, Lethal Logic: Exploring the Myths That Paralyze America Gun Policy.

Washington CeaseFire Luncheon

Kathy and I spoke at the Washington CeaseFire Luncheon in Seattle. Kari and Jenny from the book were there with us!

Oregonian Op Ed

The Oregonian ran the opinion article I wrote on April 20. Click here to read it.

Columbine Memorial Service Speech

I spoke for 3 minutes at the Columbine memorial on April 20, 2009. Just before my speech, the daughter of one of the Columbine victims was talking about her mother. She said her mom was "still on day one" in terms of recovering and moving on from what happened at Columbine. So much pain - even 10 years later.

Denver State Capitol

As we walked to the State Capitol in Denver for the memorial I noticed the flags at half mast and the blue Columbine ribbon on the building. It took my breath away because it was the first really visible symbol of the anniversary for me.

With Virginia Tech visitors

One of the best things about a sad day in Denver was reconnecting with some of the people from The Brady Campaign, many of whom were personally impacted by the Virginia Tech shooting two years ago.

Columbine 10-year memorial trip

It was really tough to speak at the memorial service. Right before I spoke, I told Dave Sanders' daughter how much he'd influenced me and it was emotional for me - especially those first few moments. The lie-in was also emotional. It made me think of what happened that day.
