– An 11-year-old Uvalde girl who lost a friend in the Robb Elementary School shooting said that unless stricter gun controls are passed, school shootings are “gonna happen again and again.”
Alina Borrego was carrying a sign at the memorial site in downtown Uvalde that read, “I want to live. I want to study. I want to be a dentist. Don’t kill me!” Alina told KSAT anchor Steve Spriester that he was carrying the sign to let people know “that something is wrong. We need some some new rules in our school. Anyone can get in and do it again, each year, each year, again and again.”19 students“Immediately shocked. I didn’t believe it until her mom was the one who posted it on Facebook, and it was unbelievable. I really didn’t know what to do. And I just started crying,” Alina said about her reaction to learning that her friend had died.
When Steve asked Alina what she wanted people to know about Uvalde after the shooting, she replied, “If we want the to heal we need some new rules. Cuz, if we don’t change nothing, it’s gonna be the same and it’s gonna happen again and again. Some people shouldn’t have guns or weapons, you know. Some people that have the wrong mentality shouldn’t have some.”

I think the reporter was stunned by the clairity and her beautiful description of her friend who was murdered. 🙏
Acosta Eleven going on 50. Children know when something is just wrong, even if they don't understand the reason.

Sorry I can't follow George Conway; wife's crazy views, can't accept talking to him well his wife spreads extreme views; sat back and watch crazy president say drink Clorox or put light on it or light up your ass while thousands were dying from pandemic!
TrixieTricking Next PeachTreeDish Marge will target the little kids for harassment.
Acosta This child has been through something no child should ever go through. These mass shootings must destroy the mental health of all involved..for generations to come. It’s an ever decreasing circle 💔❤️🩹
We need change, maybe now it will happen.
Acosta LATINOS FOR DEMOCRACY SI UNA NIÑA SE EXPRESA DE ESA FORMA COMO HAY ADULTOS K NO LO MIRAN ASI ES INCREIBLE K NO AHIGAN SUSPENDIDO ESA FERIA O COMO LE LLAMEN Y KIEN LO DEBERIA HABER HECHO ERA EL GOBERNADOR ABBOTT PERO A ESE Y TODA SE RALEA DE MAFIOSOS NO LES IMPORTA NADA.
It’s the ammunition that should be highly regulated or better yet banned to the public bec it’s the one that does the harm and damage not the guns by itself.
I’m so proud of this kid. They should not experienced this horrific event. Shame to all “legislators” who refused to make changes for gun control bc of their greed for money.
Why is it so easy to put laws on abortions and not on guns? Who would want to bring a baby into this senseless tragedy. Politicians have blood on their hands for everyday that guns laws remained unchanged...WAKE THE EFF UP!
Acosta He’s right - some people shouldn’t have guns or weapons. But among students who are a danger to themselves or others - their mental conditions are protected by confidentiality laws. FERPA ensures we never know the number of disturbed children in our schools.
BE ADVISED: The illuminati Controlled Media and their goy puppets in the Democrat Party and some RINOs are using mass shooting as pretext to confiscate gun and install Tyranny/Communism/NewWorldOrder.
I never felt the need for a gun in my entire life. Then trump happened and everyone went nuts. It was so bad that you couldn’t even find a shotgun for home defense anywhere and orders took 8 -13 weeks. I hate that I feel the need to own one.
This tragedy is NOT because of guns; it is because of Liberal-Progressivists who NORMALIZE rather than TREAT mental illness.
When she described her friend who died, I almost burst into tears 😢😢
Send this to every politician and if that doesn't move them to take immediate action then nothing will. Vote out the politicians that won't enacted laws immediately to protect children and adults! BanAssaultWeaponsNow EndGunViolenceNow
WTF- is this how the deadweight in the senate remember their childhood? Hey Mitch, Ted, Manchin, Sinema- does this bring back memories of being a carefree kid?
Time to get RID of the stupid and archaic Second Amendment. Round up EVERY AR-15 and melt them all down.
Acosta Poor baby. You can tell she’s in shock and she wasn’t there, imagine the children that were there & the confusion they will feel forever.
Poor baby. Why didn't the cops go in and hurt the murderer
First of all guns don’t kill people tell me how do you plan to take guns away from bad people they have fully automatic weapons that are not even registered good people stop bad people with guns
Acosta 😥
Acosta Shame on us all
Acosta Articulate young woman. I'd like to see one of the alleged pro-life congressmen who refuse to pass laws to protect her friends look her in the eye. I'm betting she could take him down quite a few pegs.
Acosta Sometimes we Adults can learn from Children.she's an old Soul she's been born before quiet of Voice but so powerful 😥
This kid gets it better than the legislators that represent her state and our country
rickgee14 'We need some new rules'
Acosta Heartbreaking. BanAssaultWeapons
That we have to ask children about the right thing to do. GOP And still we don't listen. GovAbbott SenTedCruz JohnCornyn
if anybody knows Alina’s family could you reach out, im jackie’s sister and we would like to talk to her!
Alina is only 11. Yet ? She speaks with a voice far older & wiser than those sitting in Congress...
This is sad. Also sad that the door the gunman entered was propped open by a teacher, in contradiction to the school's rule to keep the door shut and locked. So, rules must be followed, not just in place.
Pathetic Using children first, for you agenda (shooting) and then second for your agenda (propaganda coverage) Shameless evil demons with no souls pulling the strings Hope people see this was a planned attacked by the deep state
People who support guns for all, so they can defend themselves. Do you also support nukes for all 256 countries so they too can defend themselves? North Korea, African Warlords, etc would love the US support in getting Nukes.
The people that pass the law that anybody could go out there and buy a gun a rifle or whatever they are the responsible parties for all these killings they were the one that passed the law they should good a law that they have to be 35 and over to buy a weapon these 18 year old
I agreed with you, I blame the people who legalize guns to anybody I believe that people that want to buy guns should be at least over 35 years old because by then they have some kind of knowledge 18 year old kids they don't know anything that's ridiculous that people who passed
She’s 11, this should not be what she has to think about, talk about or deal with. What the hell are we doing to this girl, all kids and more importantly this country!!!! It’s time for change if not now , WHEN?
sadly sick individuals don't care. Take care about safety of the children and help people in need.
If happens in America they call it gun violence coz nra and money is involved, happens somewhere else then it's a humanitarian crisis take all the guns, country is a shithole, put sanctions on them and what not. Why normal people need machine guns in US is beyond me.
JoaquinCastrotx Her parents should be very proud of her!
For real some asshole civilians don't need to give access to guns, OMG our kids,needs love
Do something about these drug psycho kids who get on there computer and tell you there going to shoot up a school and kill and no one does a thing to STOP it. Go after them and there parents..
I’m not sure that it’s just people with the ‘wrong mentality’ who should be denied guns. I think every civilian in the United States should not be allowed to own a gun. Who’s to say when someone’s having a bad day and their normal behaviour becomes crazy?
It is apparent from what this child is saying that she doesn’t want everyone to have guns as some people with guns may have the ‘wrong mentality’. It is about time parliamentarians listened to the views of children who are the prime target in schools. No guns= safe kids &teachers
That's a great thought but they will just make the weapons.... need more mental health help.
The gun laws need to be unforced and not all people need to have guns.
I just want to know: Where are the federal and state laws to provide free mental health care, regardless of income, employment, or citizenship status. After all, that's why we have all these shootings, right? UvaldeStrong MentalHealthAwareness
Y people want to take gun with them..no offence but the fact is your country is the super power ?.Y need gun with all time .Y this much hate.just think level of mindset and shame brought to your country .It's elementary school. WTF Guns blessings law..not life's matter for govt
This young girl was very articulate and could not have put it more clearly change the gun laws and save innocent lives
Eleven year olds have more common sense than the Harvard educated Republican elites like Ted Cruz, Tom Cotton, Ben Sasse & Mike Crapo. They are paid to advance the stupidest arguments we’ve ever heard with a straight face. I’d rather have this little girl in the Senate.
My God? What an insightful young lady. Send this to Congress.
Sensible and true
Very sad
School management is faulty for that incident. Shameful
Common sense right there.
Out of the mouths of babes…🥀
This child has more common sense than the adult in GOP.
USA n the world are passing laws in abomination to Gods laws. If they continue to do so Leviticus 26:14-17..if u do not do all my commandments...I will appoint over u terror, consumption, the burning ague...cause sorrow of heart..' Time to repent ask YHVH's mercy n forgiveness.
This 11 year old made a sign that says 'Please dont kill me.' Her interview is worth the watch and share. Let this be repeated until someone listens. tedcruz GovAbbott Open your damn ears and your eyes!
Knight201701 Profound. 💔😢
JoaquinCastrotx Alina's already smarter than half of congress.
As much we fight for peace and control. Nothing will change if we got shitty laws enforcements and shitty people in government.
Listen GovAbbott
JoaquinCastrotx GregAbbott_TX TxDPS TXAG Gov’t has got rules but there are those evil people who don’t. Each AR-15 rifle costs $2200 retail ! Not hearing how this 18 yr old Gamer paid $5000 for weapons ? Meanwhile living at his Grandparents in high school ? Sicario 3 The Day of the Cartels ?
Credit due to this reporter too. A man who genuinely seems like he cares about listening and getting a point across. People are crying out and hes listening at the very least
To ban the gun to use by the public is the only solutions.
When he finished did he say 'End quote.'
Rules? You mean all the laws that were broken to get the gun? I doubt another law would have helped. Tell the kids the truth, we do not care enough to protect them. We put guards at places we want to protect, banks, rich political figures, and government offices, NOT schools.
she will grow up and make a difference 🙌
Smart child of innocence. Pay attention to her message.
Thanks for using your voice Alina. Many of us are listening.
It seems only in America would you give a drowning man a glass of water thinking it will help… Adding more guns in the mix do not curtail or help the problem and allowing the sale of assault weapons is asinine!
'Don't kill me.' 💔😥
JoaquinCastrotx We must listen to our young people. Thank you, Alina!
New rules only hurt law abiding citizens, otherwise the killer would not have murdered all those people. Had he know there was an armed officer at the school, he would likely not have gone there
