Students shoot down gun violence with heart-wrenching #IfIDieInASchoolShooting tweets

Started with a tweet by Andrew Schneidawind, the hashtag soon went viral with many posting heart-wrenching things they would miss.

I’m gonna try and get a hashtag trending called #IfIdieInASchoolShooting. If you wanna join, feel free. #IfIdieInASchoolShooting I will never be able to finish my animated TV series, I’ll never be able to see my sister again, and I will have to become a martyr. #NeverAgain

Tweets such as, “My 8 younger siblings will have to grow up without their oldest sister, i’ll never graduate high school or college, i’ll never get to work in dc like i’ve wanted to since i was young, i’ll never get to create change,” and “I will be just one of many kids who’s life meant nothing to our lawmakers. Just another statistic,” were posted on the micro-blogging site.

#IfIdieInASchoolShooting I will be just one of many kids who’s life meant nothing to our lawmakers. Just another statistic.

Politicize my death. Make it mean something. Cover my grave with daisies and stuffed animals. I live to make a difference

#IfIdieInASchoolShooting my parents would have no children, they will be daughterless and heartbroken. I would be lost in the endless names of children killed each year in school shootings. I will never become an EMT, Wife, and Mother. Slowly my presence would fade away.

#IfIdieInASchoolShooting I’ll do nothing, I’ll be dead. The living family members will be devastated and the politicians won’t listen. My killer will become famous and nobody will know my name. My screams and dreams all forgotten. I won’t be the last if this continues.

I will leave behind…

-an autistic brother who needs his sister.
-A mother with multiple sclerosis who needs help with her IVs, etc.
-A father who told me I could be anything in the world.
-A grandmother who took me in after both my parents couldn’t. https://t.co/c9XDGufpWM
