ORLANDO, Fla. — Millions across the country are trying to come up with an answer to gun violence and for a second time in a week, community leaders will meet to discuss how to curb gun violence in Pine Hills. 

Monday's event starts at 11:30 a.m. at the Citrus Club in Downtown Orlando. At this time, the Tiger Club is no longer selling tickets.

The event, hosted by the Tiger Club, will include panelists such as State Attorney Monique H. Worrell, Orange County Sheriff John Mine and Executive Director of the Florida Juvenile Justice Association Christian Minor.

This latest discussion follows the series of deadly shootings in the Pine Hills community that left three people dead back on Feb. 22: Nathacha Augustin, 9-year-old T'yonna Major and Spectrum News reporter Dylan Lyons.

Last week, community leaders held a forum on ways to help get through to kids or at least keep them busy so they don't get into trouble.

Offering up an answer on gun violence

In Pine Hills, a local businessman who not only is from he community, but also happens to sell guns is trying to offer up part of the answer with education.

An empty coffin can be a sight. It can make people uncomfortable, but it can also make one think.

There was no funeral on Sunday at the Kingdom Church Orlando off North Pine Hills Road.

Naomie Monroe attended her brother Gino Nicolas’ seven years ago. He was a victim of gun violence at just 24 years old.

“The community coordinator of Obama’s My Brother Keeper,” Monroe says about her brother Gino. “He graduated from FSU, he was determined to help young men of color in his community to give them proper education to be something in life.”

Gino at the time of his death of was trying to help young men in the Parramore and Pine Hills communities. 

Now it’s his sister and her husband who are trying to get through to the youth of troubled communities dealing with gun violence. Not just talking, but showing what gun violence can do.

“I would like kids to realize the consequences of pulling a trigger and getting the proper education that they need,” Monroe says.

By Monroe’s side Sunday was her husband Robert Monroe. Also from Pine Hills, he now happens to co-own a gun business which puts emphasis on gun safety and education.

“I am from this community,” Robert Monroe the co-owner of EJR Gun Club begins to explain. “I have seen a lot of friends and a lot of people lose their life due to gun violence. my wife lost her brother and i saw how it impacted her which impacted my family.”

That’s why the Monroes are showing what they went through.

“I believe if an individual sees they are causing families to be broken up and losing loved ones due to gun violence and they are causing that, I want to be on the receiving end to help them heal that and understand the severities of pulling a trigger,” Robert Monroe says.

The Monroes understand gun violence won’t be solved overnight, but they have hope their message made its way to someone or a family.

“With my husband giving the education with gun violence it helped me understand you have good and bad,” Naomie Monroe explains. “With the right resources you can care and protect yourself.”

The Monroes don’t want more families to experience what they did.

According to gunviolencearchive.org since 2014, Florida has had more than 9,000 gun related murders, homicides, or unintentional deaths. The state has also had more than 15,000 gun related injuries.
