Staff Writer On December 14, 2012, Adam Lanza grabbed three guns from his home - a semi-automatic AR-15 assault rifle made by Bushmaster and pistols made by Glock and Sig Sauer - and went to Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. In total, 20 children were killed along with 6 teachers. Many politicians have come together to come up with a way to stop mass shootings. But how far do they really get? Within months after the Sandy Hook shooting, did anyone ever really hear about it? The president stopped addressing it, we stopped reading articles about it online. And the politicians who swore to decrease the amount of any mass shootings came to a quiet halt. With the Republicans so against restricting our gun laws, and the Democrats wanting something to change, and blaming the actual gun on the event, it’s difficult to even come together as one, even under the heinous circumstances.
