The events that occurred in Connecticut demanded a call to action because the lives of young innocent children were taken and this could have been prevented. We as a Catholic faith-filled society need to pray for these young children and those adults involved in this horrible event. We can raise awareness to our community about gun safety and proper storage of weapons to keep them away from potentially harmful people. It is our job to bring this issue to people's attention from our dear neighbor to the President of the United State, we all need to take an active role in fighting violence if we actually wish to make a difference. From here we need to continue to push this issue to the fore-front of everyone's minds. It needs to constantly and consistently be on the agenda of as many people's meeting as possible.
