The federal government hosted several forums following the Las Vegas mass shooting. The Las Vegas shooting forum took place in October.

More than 65 per cent of the participants were from California, most notably Southern California. The event was sponsored by the Vegas Strong Resiliency Center.
March for Our Lives organizers plan to hold a similar forum in October. It will likely include interviews with candidates as well as a Q-and-A session. The program will include interviews with candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination and presidential candidates. Further details will be revealed in the weeks ahead of the forum. The forum is intended to facilitate policy discussions but the deadly shooting has become a political football match.

How many Americans rely on hunting for their livelihood?
There are more than 300,000,000 hunters in America. This means that hunters are twice as numerous as those who live in New York City.
Hunting is a American pastime that has existed for hundreds of years. However, today's hunters are less common than ever. According to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS), only 2 percent of the population hunts regularly. That number is even lower among young adults.
Hunting may seem outdated, but it is still very popular with older generations. According to a recent survey, 68 percent of boomers intend to hunt again after they retire. Hunting is an opportunity to reconnect with nature and experience the outdoors.
For younger generations, however, hunting isn't necessarily a priority. According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation only 18% of millennials consider themselves avid hunters.
FWS has been working hard to preserve America's wilderness places for everyone to enjoy.
The agency's "Wild Lands” campaign was launched in 2014 to increase awareness about public lands throughout the country. The goal is to educate people about the importance of preserving these areas and encourage them to visit them.
The Wild Lands program also encourages conservation efforts. One example is the partnership between FWS and the National Rifle Association to create a youth shooting sports program called Project Gunter. This program teaches kids how to safely handle firearms and helps them develop skills such as marksmanship and safety.
Project Gunter has expanded to include women of all races and minorities. As a result, more children are learning how to shoot guns and become active participants in wildlife conservation.
