Their BeSMART training addressed all of this, including unintentional (not accidental) shootings. Live fire and marksmanship training will do NOTHING to prevent kids from accessing unsecured guns. They are selling a class on how to BUY a gun 👇🏻.
The mere PRESENCE of a gun in the home increases the risk of suicide by 300%, and the leading FORMER gun violence prevention org is going to train you on how to purchase a gun.

ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.

“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Alderman Sigcho-Lopez was right to call out Pritzker today about the state police arresting protesters. Pritzker responded that the state police are protecting protesters, and that just isn't true. State cops have arrested and brutalized protesters to facilitate ICE operations. That's reality.
