Off Limits Conversations: "I Lost My Daughter In The Parkland Shooting" | Ryan Petty
In this emotional and moving conversation, I sat down with gun rights activist Ryan Petty, the father of Alaina Petty, who was killed in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, Florida in 2018.
We discussed the emotional aftermath of the tragedy and his advocacy for school safety, emphasizing that gun control is not the solution; the importance of proactive measures to ensure safer schools, and why Florida's blueprint of prevention, response, and recovery is the path to success; the media's role in shaping narratives around gun violence, and the changing landscape of media trust; the complexities of American gun culture, and the responsibilities of gun owners and parents; and much more.
