As parents who lost our dearest son by a gun crime in the U.S., we have a strong fear that Japan might go down the same path as America where people have to "save their lives with guns."
To avoid such tragic situations in the future, we think that everybody in the country should make efforts to refuse guns and to build a safer society, punishing gun holders severely.
To raise young people who will not be tempted by guns, we believe that we should aim for a comfortable and relaxed society where young people feel their own lives have important meaning and hope.
Nowadays, guns have taken many precious lives throughout the world. Aiming to create a safe society without firearms and violent crimes, we have been taking an active part in enlightening people about how priceless human lives are and how horrible firearms and violent crimes are.
We ask you to join in our activities to make this movement more powerful and influential.
