I had never heard him give a speech before today. Wow, I am impressed!
It is well worth the 53 min. The first 25 min. is the speech, then the Q&A are just as good, if not better.
He makes some amazing points and has done his research!
Truly, take the time to listen.

Taken from David Hogg's speech...
Every politician needs a political plan to change Americas gun violence by 90% over 10 years, such as:
1) Stigmatizing mental health is not going to solve this problem.
2) Every generation working together is what it takes to solve this problem.
3) Fund gun violence research
4) We need a peace plan funds gun violence intervention plan (he listed several key ideas)
5) We need a plan that tackles white nationalism and white terrorism
6) No domestic abuser should be armed
7) No white nationalist should be armed
8) And active law enforcement enforcement
