A Poway Unified School District student started a petition asking for more gun control. The petition asks for universal background checks, red flag laws, and a ban on automatic weapons.
"How do I even directly impact something like this that we keep on hearing about,” said Winnie Xu.
"School is not a choice, it's compulsory. It's not a move theatre, a grocery store, a mall that you can avoid. Students have to be there, and I think in an effort to protect our student's general welfare, this is means you have to take,” Xu added.Rep. Scott Peters was there and read the petition. Read his full statement below:
