The Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings on December 14, 2012 in Newtown, Connecticut, left 27 people dead and was a major national news story for weeks, prompting many people to push for gun control legislation. The Soldier’s Sanctuary produced a poster saying about guns later on December 14th:
 
“Evil does not exist within a gun. It exists in the hearts and minds of those who pull the trigger for evil purposes.”
 
Several tweets of this saying were sent on that same day. It’s not known where The Soldier’s Sanctuary got the quotation, but it does not seem to have appeared anywhere before December 14, 2012.
