Living for 32



Amazing
Colin takes you through that day with chilling precision. It makes you almost feel his pain and hurt for him.

Should be A MUST WATCH
This is a sensible approach- extremists on both sides of the gun safety issue may be disappointed, but I thought it was right on Center.

powerful starting point for issue of gun violence
Moving and quietly powerful introduction to the compelling need for more stringent gun control in the US. Certainly, the scope of the issue is beyond this 40 minute documentary but highlights some of the critical issues including: loopholes that allow guns to be freely purchased at gun shows, a wad of cash the only requirement; the lack of co-ordinated background checks and information that allows even those with documented mental illness to legally purchase guns; the stunning profiteering motive of gun merchants, as shown by the seller of one of the guns that killed 32 at Virginia Tech, advocating, ON CAMPUS, for concealed carry; and the blind and self-aggrandizing belief that, in a chaotic and critical situation, being armed is the solution. Colin Goddard is an effective and persuasive standard bearer, sharing his horrifying personal experience as a survivor of the mass shooting at Virginia Tech to work for effective solutions.
