Warriors coach: It doesn’t seem to matter to government that children are being shot to death day after day in schools

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr tore into the government late Wednesday for its response to mass shootings in schools across the country.

“Nothing has been done,” Kerr said during an interview with ESPN’s Chris Haynes.

“It doesn’t seem to matter to our government that children are being shot to death day after day in schools.”

{mosads}Kerr said this hasn’t been enough to “move our leadership, our government, the people who are running our country, to actually do anything.”

“That’s demoralizing,” he said. “But we can do something about it.”

He said voters can select candidates who “actually have the courage to protect people’s lives, and not just bow down to the [National Rifle Association] NRA because they have financed their campaign for them.”

“So hopefully we’ll find enough people, first of all to vote good people in, but hopefully we can find enough people with courage to actually help our citizens remain safe and focus on the real safety issues,” he said.

“Not building some stupid wall for billions of dollars that has nothing to do with our safety, but actually protecting us from what truly is dangerous, which is maniacs with semi-automatic weapons just slaughtering our children. It’s disgusting,” he added, referring to President Trump’s proposed border wall.

Kerr has in the past been critical of Trump and his actions.

At least 17 people were killed and more were wounded when a gunman opened fire at a high school near Fort Lauderdale.

President Trump on Wednesday offered his condolences following the shooting. Multiple lawmakers have called for Congress to take action on gun violence to prevent another tragedy.
