MOMENT OF SILENCE

"Moment of Silence" is about rampant gun violence in America. It represents disingenuous moments-of-silence called for by politicians each time a mass-shooting occurs. With the gun still smoking, an American politician looks at his watch awaiting the next mass-shooting. Politicians that receive campaign funding from organizations like the National Rifle Association call for moments-of-silence after each tragedy, instead of writing legislation that will stop the sale of guns in America.
