Texas teen at the supermarket accidentally opens the door to the wrong car. She’s shot.

Kansas City teen goes to get his little brothers and accidentally rings the doorbell of the wrong house. He’s shot.

Car full of teenagers looking for a party accidentally turns into the wrong driveway. They’re shot.

OH dad mistakes 16-y-o daughter for an intruder, shoots her. She died.

These stories happen every day in America and school security or mental health access won't solve them. Only #GunControl.
