Steve Kerr has never been shy about speaking on social issues, particularly on the subject of gun control in the United States. So, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that he had a message to deliver after watching a shooting in Virginia Beach that left 11 people dead.
The Golden State Warriors head coach showed up to his press conference before Game 2 dawning a Vote for Our Lives shirt, which is meant to convey that people should vote for representatives who will support gun control measures.
“The shirt’s a reminder that the only way we can get out of this mess is to actually vote and to vote for people who are going to be willing to create some change in our gun laws, in our country,” he said.”The March for Our Lives generation has really inspired me…Hopefully, we can create a change where we won’t have to walk around scared that we’ll get shot.”
This was Kerr back in February 2018 after yet another school shooting in this country.
