Why should we wait for state and local governments? Why aren't the people and citizens taking responsibility for this, rather than waiting for some other legislative body to do it? An entire generation is seemingly being slaughtered on a weekly, almost daily basis - yet we don't seem to care. There is something seriously, and fundamentally wrong occurring.
