US rally organizsers vow no letup in gun control campaign

Student organizers of gun control rallies that drew hundreds of thousands to US streets vowed today there will be no letup in their campaign for reform.

The nationwide protests on Saturday were by far the largest in nearly two decades, part of a reignited gun control debate sparked by last month's killings at a Florida high school.

"This is not the end. This is just the beginning," Emma Gonzalez, a leader of the movement, said on CBS's "Face the Nation."
"Over the summer we're going to try to go around to colleges and ... reach out to the kids locally around the country."
"So the fact that this movement has so many people realizing that it's important to get out to the polls is what I think is one of the best things that we've accomplished," Kasky said on "Fox News Sunday."
"And the fact that they aren't taking any action toward it is proof that we need to keep on going."
"We want to keep the firearms out of the hands of dangerous individuals because that is just what the priority is right now," she said. "That's what we are focused on."
In an editorial, The Washington Post said the measures taken by Trump and Congress so far are welcome, but just "baby steps."
