More than a thousand students rallied at the Tennessee state Capitol Thursday to demand gun control, just days after a mass shooting at a Nashville Christian elementary school where three adults and three 9-year-olds were killed. Republicans hold a supermajority in Tennessee's Legislature and have loosened gun restrictions. We speak with Dr. Katrina Green, an emergency physician in Nashville who has lost patients to gun violence and joined in Thursday's protest. "People are angry, and that's part of the reason I went down there, as well," says Green. "Tennessee has become a state where it just seems like they want everybody to have a gun, no matter what."
