AZUZ: More than 3,000 walkout events were planned at schools across America yesterday one month after a deadly shooting at a high school in southeast Florida. Students had planned to stay outside for at least 17 minutes, one minute for each of those fatally shot in Parkland. The two main things they wanted, stricter gun laws in the U.S. and an end to school shootings.


One high school junior who participated in New York said students were all working together on the walkout, which was, quote, something we haven't seen from the adults in a very long time.


At Florida's Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, students said they were overwhelmed by the nationwide support. Not all students were allowed to walk out. In several states, school districts said unauthorized walkouts would be punished by unexcused absences or suspensions. Some schools said they were concerned about student safety.


And not all students who were allowed to walk out chose to. While one senior in Michigan said he supported his classmates' decision to participate, he said he didn't support those who, quote, use a tragic 1 event to push their political agendas. A sophomore 2 in Minnesota said the movement seemed too vague for him to get involved.


In addition to the walkouts, rallies, marchers and sit-ins were also planned and events related to the U.S. demonstrations 3 were held in several other countries as well.
