Delivering one toy for each child killed in Newtown, Connecticut to the NRA, each Sunday morning.

February 10 near Arlington, VA
From a father in Virginia, "I have my own personal protest ongoing at NRA HQ in Fairfax, VA. For each of the 20 younger children killed in Newtown, I deliver a toy to the NRA on Sunday morning, and post the photo here. Feel free to join in this remembrance. In memory of Madeline Hsu, age 6."
