(CNN)Nearly 20 years after the mass shooting at Columbine High School captured the nation's attention, some of the school's current students are using its legacy to combat gun violence.
Their campaign, #MyLastShot, asks students to put a sticker on their ID or cellphone that indicates their desire for images of their body to be publicized and shared if they are killed as a result of gun violence.
"Our country has a history of photography effecting real change," the campaign's founder, 17-year-old Kaylee Tyner, told CNN in a phone interview Saturday.
Tyner said she was inspired by Emmett Till's death, his legacy and how that was connected to the painful imagery of his body.

1. There's something to this.

Having embedded photojournalists during the Vietnam War probably helped end the war. I hate all this sanitizing "the news" does now on violence.

2. If Sandy Hook didn't change much

I don’t know what will. All schools should have stricter security with metal detectors like government buildings.
