Marylanders to Prevent Gun Violence (MPGV) has launched a website called “Behind the Statistics” that shares stories about gun deaths and injuries and how families, friends, and communities have been affected by these tragedies. “No more numbers,” declares MGPV. “Say their names.” By allowing survivors to tell their deeply personal stories, MPGV hopes to help change the culture of violence in this country.
The stories cover the full spectrum of gun violence: homicides, suicides, shootings perpetrated by law enforcement, etc. At the bottom of each, there is a place for readers to leave comments of support.
Please take the following steps to show these gun violence survivors that you care about them and their advocacy:
1) Visit the Behind the Statistics website at:
http://behindthestatistics.org/
2) Read at least one of the stories at the website and leave a loving comment for the survivor concerned at the bottom of the page by clicking “Leave a Reply.”
Once you have left a comment for one or more of the survivors at the website, click the orange banner below to report taking action!
