Steve Kerr Weighs In On Gun Violence After School Shooting In Florida

A reporter asked Steve Kerr about the school shooting that took place earlier in the day in Florida, where a 19 year old former student walked into school with a semi-automatic weapon and gunned down high school students.

Kerr didn’t hold back in his response calling out the government for not caring that children are being shot to death.

“Nothing has been done. It doesn’t seem to matter to our government that children are being shot to death day after day in schools. It doesn’t matter that people are being shot at a concert, in a movie theater. It’s not enough, apparently, to move our leadership, our government, people that are running this country, to actually do anything. That’s demoralizing.”

Kerr continued his thought by urging Americans to vote people into office that will not bow down to the NRA.

“But we can do something about it. We can vote people in who actually have the courage to protect people’s lives and not just bow down to the NRA because they’ve financed their campaign for them. So, hopefully we’ll find enough people, first of all, to vote good people in, but hopefully we can find enough people with courage to help our citizens remain safe and focus on the real safety issues. Not building some stupid wall for billions of dollars that has nothing to do with our safety, but actually protecting us from what truly is dangerous, which is maniacs with semi-automatic weapons just slaughtering our children. It’s disgusting.”
