High School Students Spark Gun-Control Movement
高中生发动枪支控制运动
A group of high school students have organized a gun-control movement in the US following a mass school shooting in Florida on Valentine’s Day. Within days of the shooting, students were holding rallies and proposing new bills on gun control. They also participated in a major televised debate, raised over 2 million dollars for victims’ families, and organized a nation-wide march (scheduled for March 24). The students also used social media to pressure businesses to cut ties with the National Rifle Association (NRA). The goal of the student activists is for this to be the last mass school shooting in America. They are asking for a ban on assault rifles and more intensive background checks for gun buyers.
情人节佛罗里达出现大型校园枪击案以后，美国一群高中生组织了枪支管控运动。枪击案发生后几天，学生们团结一致提议枪支管控新法案。他们还参加了大型电视辩论，为受害者家属筹集了200多万美元，并组织了全国范围的运动（预定在3月24日）。学生还利用社交媒体给商业机构施加压力，迫使他们切断与美国步枪协会（NRA）的关系。这些学生积极分子的目标就是让这一次成为美国最后一次大型校园枪击案。他们请求禁止突击步枪，并且对枪支购买者进行更为严格的背景调查。
