“Is protesting the answer—I don’t know, but we’ve got to start somewhere.”

Sky Roberts wrote on Instagram: “Hello world. we received news today that there’s a protest in DC. We found a handwritten note that our sister Virginia wrote.

“I think it’s important that the survivors know that she’s with you and her voice will not be silenced. I know that it’s so important, and her wish is that we continue to fight.

“Her words are; ‘Mothers, Fathers, Sisters, and Brothers need to show the battle lines are drawn, and stand together to fight for the future of victims. Is protesting the answer? I dont know. But we’ve got to start somewhere.’

“To all survivors and those protesting. We stand with you in solidarity and know the fight is not over!”
