Over 30 Years Ago, Mister Rogers Talked To Children And Their Parents About Gun Violence

Soon after John Lennon was murdered back in 1980, the great Fred Rogers produced an emotional episode on gun violence. It’s interesting to see how different programming for children was back then.

They were treated with respect. He actually talks to them and listens to what they have to say on some extremely important matters. It sure would be nice to have a show like this around today.

We probably need it now more than ever…
