Leaders in Tennessee are calling for action after the unthinkable school shooting in Nashville. Seven people, including the shooter, were killed in the attack, leaving a community in mourning. East Tennessee leaders, including Knoxville Mayor Indya Kincannon, expressed their sadness and called for common-sense gun safety measures to prevent similar tragedies. The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee even established a fund to support the healing process for those affected by the shooting. Authorities have not shared the identities of the victims or shooter at this time. Representative Bob Freeman, a Nashville Democrat, called for action after the shooting, saying, “It is time to pull together and provide all the love and support that we can to those affected by this terrible catastrophe. It is time for serious action.” Meanwhile, the Tennessee Senate decided to cancel their floor debates to address the shooting. As the community continues to grieve and leaders call for action, the entire state of Tennessee is left wondering what measures will be taken to keep students safe and prevent another tragedy like this from happening again.
