PROCLAMATION <br />NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE AWARENESS DAY <br />JUNE 2, 2017 <br />Whereas, every day, 93 Americans are killed by gun violence; and <br />Whereas, Americans are 25 times more likely to be killed with guns than people in <br />other developed countries; and. <br />Whereas, we continue to honor the many victims of mass shootings in Colorado; and <br />Whereas, local government officials and law enforcement officers know their <br />communities best, are the most familiar with local criminal activity and how <br />to address it, and are best positioned to understand how to keep their <br />citizens safe; and <br />Whereas, we renew our commitment to reduce gun violence and pledge to do all we <br />can to keep firearms out of the wrong hands, and encourage responsible <br />gun ownership to help keep our children safe; and <br />Whereas, half of the victims of domestic violence in Colorado were killed with guns; <br />and <br />Whereas, by wearing orange on June 2, 2017, Americans will raise awareness about <br />gun violence and honor the lives and lost human potential of Americans <br />stolen by gun violence. <br />Now therefore, I, Robert P. Muckle, Mayor of Louisville, Colorado do hereby proclaim <br />June 2, 2017 to be National Gun Violence Awareness Day. I urge every resident to take <br />time to honor and remember all victims and survivors of gun violence and to declare <br />that we as a country must do more to reduce gun violence. <br />DATED this 16t" day May, 2017 <br />ATTEST: <br />Meredyth Muth, City Clerk <br />A <br />- - I L <br />Hobert P. Muckle, Mayor <br />
