Florida Students Walk Out to Protest Teens Killed by Gun Violence in Liberty City
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Florida, students at Miami Northwestern Senior High School held a
walkout on Monday to protest gun violence and to mourn the deaths of a
current and former student killed in a shooting in Liberty City over the
weekend. Seventeen-year-old Kimson Green and 18-year-old Rickey Dixon
were both killed. Two others were wounded. Liberty City is about 40
miles south of Parkland, Florida, the site of the Valentine's Day
massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, which killed 17
people-14 students and three faculty.
