for the National Gun Violence Awareness Day on June 2, and numerous politicians, activists, and other Americans wore orange to increase awareness of the need to reduce gun violence.

Elizabeth Warren tweeted about wearing orange, Senator Durbin, Gabby Gifford, Al Franken and others wore orange, including Hillary Clinton at her rallies.

Not Bernie, though. Either he couldn't be bothered to even wear an orange tie, or he disagrees with the anti gun-violence movement.

The endorsement comes a day after National Gun Violence Awareness Day, when Americans showed their support for the movement by wearing orange. In San Diego on Thursday, Clinton wore an orange blouse under her navy pantsuit while delivering her foreign affairs speech eviscerating Trump. Sanders, who also was campaigning in California, did not wear orange.

1. Yeah, only two possibilities. Lol

[HERVEPA]

2. Damn, you never stop, do you. One trick pony. Maybe he didn't know about it?

Or maybe even people wearing orange isn't going to change a damn thing.

[pnwmom]

3. And NONE of his advisors knew about it, either? He needs some new advisors.

[MineralMan]

5. Well, I heard about it on the CBS Morning News,

so I dug out my safety orange t-shirt from Carhardt and wore that for the day. I think it got pretty broad coverage. Lots of people honored the concept by wearing orange. Some people, for whatever reason, didn't. Their choice, really.

But I heard about it, so I did it, since I'm in agreement with the concept.

[HERVEPA]

6. Any new gun laws passed since you wore it?

[MineralMan]

7. Uh, no. As far as I know, none were close to being passed.

It's a solidarity thing. You've heard of solidarity, right? It's what people do when they agree on things.

8. Not knowing is a terrible excuse

And continuing to campaign isn't going to change a damn thing, yet Sanders is doing that anyway.

4. Trump wore orange

of course, he wears orange in the shower too.

9. you do realize Spike Lee is a ....Bernie surrogate Thanks for the plug

[pnwmom]

10. Yes, I do. And he cared about National Gun Violence Awareness Day.

Unlike Bernie, who couldn't be bothered about trivial issues having nothing to do with the 1%.

[azurnoir]

11. was Bernie in New York ? But grasp onto whatever you need

[pnwmom]

12. It was a NATIONAL event, and one of the links I posted in the OP

showed Hillary on June 2 wearing an orange shirt, and another showing Bernie at his event in his standard white shirt and dark tie.

[azurnoir]

13. Hillary was wearing charcoal grey suit with a red shell top underneath

[brooklynite]

14. You missed yesterday foreign policy speech I'm guessing?

[azurnoir]

16. found a picture with different color filters? well good for you

and no I watched it

[pnwmom]

20. All the photos from different outlets show the orange shirt.

You are mis-remembering, or your TV needs a color adjustment.

AND THERE"S THIS:

15. The horror

[SheilaT]

17. Wearing something (in this case orange)

to support something (whatever) has always struck me as totally useless.

Maybe trying to pass laws would be better.

[pnwmom]

19. He could start by renouncing his position supporting the NRA backed PLCAA. n/t

[aikoaiko]

18. He did, but you might have missed it.
