Read a comment elsewhere that perhaps a grassroot movement should be started, similar to those started for war memorials, for a monument to the victims of gun violence. Something similar to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, where people’s names are added.

It wouldn’t have to be in Washington (not likely to be approved by the GOP anyway). Any state that would be willing to host it would be fine.

Perhaps hire the guy who designed the wall to do that. Put a physical reminder in place that allows people who are related to grieve, others to learn, and wingnuts cannot escape its existence.

(The only problem I see with it is wingnuts vandalising it or trying to destroy it.)

Same guy did the Civil Rights memorial at the SPLC headquarters.
