Cornell Students to Protest NRA by Flooding Organization’s Facebook Comment Section
Amid national and local uproar over gun violence, Justin Langfan ’19 is leading an effort to tackle the issue from a different approach: using mass social action to “revolutionize our politics.”
Langfan is organizing a group of people to utilize social media to hold the NRA accountable as part of a movement he calls Shaping The Future. On Tuesday, everyone participating in the movement will comment the following question on the NRA’s most recent Facebook post:
“The NRA has said that ‘people who are dangerous should not have access to firearms.’ If the NRA believes this statement, why is it against implementing background checks for the 22% of gun purchases that don’t require them? #JoinUsandPostThis #ShapingtheFuturenow.com.”
“The biggest thing is that your voice really does matter,” Langfan told The Sun. “The NRA only gets like 200-500 comments per post, so really it just takes a 100 bold people to say that I’m going to join you in doing this.”
Langfan said that 140 people have signed up to participate as of Saturday, but admitted that he can’t guarantee that every single one of them will actually post on Tuesday.
