<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\nOn the back of the shirts, there’s a message that reads “LEARN MORE” with the social media handles of organizations looking to end gun violence and support gun control legislation such as “@bradybuzz,” “@everytown,” “@giffordscourage,” “@livefreeusa” and “@marchforourlives.”<\/p>\n
San Antonio head coach Gregg Popovich spoke at a Stand with Uvalde gathering on Saturday in San Antonio and took aim at government officials to end gun violence.<\/p>\n
“How many will it take?” Popovich asked. “A massacre a month? Two massacres a week? Fifteen kids? Twenty-four kids? Where [a shooter will] kill 74 sometime? Then maybe you will do something? Get off your ass! Do something! They work for us. The majority of us want them to do something about the gun laws and they don’t do it because they care more about their power, their position and their money than they do our children. “<\/p>\n
Kerr implored people to get out and vote to try to impact change with gun laws.<\/p>\n
“The biggest thing I think is to vote,” said Kerr, whose father, Malcolm, was shot and killed in a terrorist attack in 1984 when he was president of the American University in Beirut. “What I understand is that a lot of congressional races that are out there, despite the fact that the majority of people in this country want gun safety measures put in place, a lot of those races are decided by people who aren’t so much for any kind of gun safety measures. And so people got to vote, and if you feel strongly about saving lives and possibly even someone in your own family, get out and vote.<\/p>\n
“That’s the only way to convince the people we need to convince to start implementing gun safety regulation prevention laws, things that we can do to help.”<\/p>\n
Udoka spoke out against gun violence during the Eastern Conference finals as well.<\/p>\n
“We play a game that if you win, you’re elated and you feel great about it,” Udoka said on Sunday. “You lose, you’re devastated for the moment but it’s not life and death, you still go on. The awareness is about things that continue to happen in our communities. They are devastated and their families are devastated and we kind of go on with our normal life and business. Just continue to keep those thoughts in mind and those people are struggling.<\/p>\n
“It continues to happen. And awareness and changes need to be made and we are all on the same page as far as that.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
