"I was walking down here and I saw it and I thought it was pretty. Actually, I did not, however... until just now... realize what it was about, that it was about the students who were shot and that gives it more power to know that," said Laura Sydell, who lives in San Francisco."
It's not just in San Francisco. There was a vigil outside San Ramon City Hall Monday night, honoring the victims and advocating for gun control.
