Last week in the US State of Georgia 14-year-old Colt Gray allegedly walked into his Apalachee High School, took out a gun and shot two students and two teachers dead. It’s the 45th school shooting to happen in America this year.

With an upcoming election taking place in November is there any desire from the country’s top politicians for change?

We speak to the BBC’s North America Correspondent Anthony Zurcher about the complicated laws around gun ownership.

And we also hear from campaigner Zoe Touray, who survived the Oxford High School shooting in Michigan in 2021.
