Keep reading to see what celebrities are saying about the horrible tragedy.
We are grieving with Parkland. But we are not powerless. Caring for our kids is our first job. And until we can honestly say that we're doing enough to keep them safe from harm, including long overdue, common-sense gun safety laws that most Americans want, then we have to change.
@BarackObama
Interesting that the same group of people who are against ending a fetus' life in a womb are the same people who think little children getting shot at school, is perfectly fine and do nothing to stop that.

A lot of “GUNS ARENT THE PROBLEM, GUNS ARE SAFE UNTIL A HUMAN PICKS IT UP” arguments I see online. That's the DUMBEST SHIT IVE EVER HEARD. GUN CONTROL NOW PLEASE.

My heart breaks for those affected from the Parkland shooting. This one hits hard as it's in our county where I live w/ my family. Strengh, love and light to all the families & students during this tragic time. Stay strong - together.
@TheRock
Abortion is a difficult subject to discuss, because people either believe life begins at conception or they don't. Discussing gun laws shouldn't be the same, because there are so many shades of gray between owning whatever you want or nothing at all. #GunReformNow THREAD.
@JamesGunn
Prayer and faith without action mean nothing. #GunReformNow

I am absolutely baffled watching the President speak about the tragedy in #parkland and not ONE word about guns. Shameful. My blood is boiling. Something has to change. Bring on the midterms so we can use our power to vote out politicians who continue to do nothing.
