Protesters urged for universal background checks on all gun sales, raising the federal age of gun ownership and possession to 21, closing of the gun show loophole, a restoration of the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban, and a ban on the sale of high - capacity magazines in the United States and a ban on bump stocks. Turnout was estimated to be between 1.2 to 2 million people in the United States, making it one of the largest protests in American history.

Also joining the march efforts are Alex Wind of Stoneman Douglas High School, who along with four friends created the `` Never Again '' campaign. Emma González and David Hogg, also survivors of the shooting, have been vocal supporters of the march. The date was chosen in order to give students, families and others a chance to mourn first, and then on March 24, talk about gun control. Organizers filed a permit application with the National Park Service during the week of February 23, and expected as many as 500,000 people to attend. However the National Mall, which was the planned site of the main march in Washington, D.C. was reportedly already booked for March 24 ; the application, filed by an unidentified local student group, claimed it was for a talent show. A permit was later obtained for Pennsylvania Avenue. The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority announced it would operate extra trains for the march. The Enough ! National School Walkout was held on the one month anniversary of the Stoneman Douglas shooting. It involved students walking out from their classes for exactly seventeen minutes ( one for each of the victims of the massacre ) and involved more than 3,000 schools across the United States and nearly one million students. Thousands of students also gathered and staged a rally in Washington D.C. after observing 17 minutes of silence with their backs to the White House. After the success of the walkout, Hogg posted a tweet that included a provocative, NRA - style advertisement calling out lawmakers for their inaction on or opposition to gun control efforts, asking `` What if our politicians were n't the bitch of the NRA ? '', and ending with a promotion for the upcoming March.

'' The litany also included the following refrain : From so many heartbreaks comes forth a united commitment to go into the streets of our cities and towns and promote a way of peace and well - being for all people. With compassion sown from the threads of sadness and terror, we will mend a nation tattered by gun violence and weave a new cloth of hope and peace.

Hunter Pollack, brother of victim Meadow Pollack, was scheduled to speak but did not attend due to a logistical issue, which he contended was a result of being misled by event officials.

Singers Ariana Grande, Lin - Manuel Miranda, Ben Platt, Miley Cyrus, Jennifer Hudson, Andra Day, Common, Selena Gomez, Lady Gaga and Demi Lovato joined student - led marchers in Washington, D.C. Responses National rifle Association On March 21, NRA TV host Grant Stinchfield stated that `` March for Our Lives is backed by radicals with a history of violent threats, language and actions '' ; fact - checker PolitiFact has rated this statement as being `` without merit '' and `` Pants on Fire '' indicating that it is a `` ridiculous claim ''. While the march was occurring, the NRA posted a membership drive video on their Facebook page, declaring that the `` protests are n't spontaneous. Gun - hating billionaires and Hollywood elites are manipulating and exploiting children as part of their plan to DESTROY the Second Amendment ''. Another video dubbed `` A March for Their Lies '' was uploaded to YouTube featuring Colion Noir, in which he described the planned rally as a `` carnival of a march ''. Noir also said in the video that there is an `` agenda that 's a million times bigger than the guns ''. Politicians The Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, leading the NYC March For Our Lives rally The Washington Post reported that there were many Democrats encouraging the marchers, and many of them, including candidates for office, participated from the sidelines in the march, but few Republicans did similarly. The White House said in a response that they `` applaud the many courageous young Americans exercising their first amendment rights ''. On the day of the protests, Florida Republican senator Marco Rubio responded by stating : `` However, many other Americans do not support a gun ban '' and `` view banning guns as an infringement on the Second Amendment rights of law abiding citizens that ultimately will not prevent these tragedies ''. He called for protesters to find `` common ground with those who hold opposing views '' for change to happen. However, a blanket gun ban was not called for by the protests. Former Republican senator and presidential candidate Rick Santorum criticized the Parkland activists, suggesting during an interview with CNN that students should be learning ways to respond to a shooter rather than asking lawmakers `` to solve their problem '' ; Santorum advised students to take classes in CPR rather than marching in Washington. The Washington Post quoted several doctors responding to Santorum that CPR would not be at all effective on gunshot victims as they were suffering from blood loss. Former Democratic President Barack Obama said that he was `` so inspired by all the young people '' who made March for Our Lives possible. He addressed them : `` Keep at it. You 're leading us forward. Nothing can stand in the way of millions of voices calling for change. '' Media A report in The New Yorker praised the leaders of the march for their `` extraordinary inclusiveness '' in that they expanded the locus of concern from suburban schools to those of urban neighborhoods as well. On social media, fake pictures and GIFs of Emma González tearing up a copy of the U.S. Constitution were circulated in an effort to discredit the march. The images were doctored from originals of González tearing up a shooting target sign. Actor and conservative commentator Adam Baldwin defended circulating the doctored images as `` political satire ''. Celebrities Jesse Hughes, a survivor of the Bataclan terrorist attack, called the march `` pathetic '', but after being criticized for his comment, later apologized saying, `` I was not attempting to impugn the youth of America and this beautiful thing that they accomplished. I truly am sorry, I did not mean to hurt anyone or cause any harm.
