Money was raised on his behalf and the GoFundMe campaign appears to be still open. Did he receive funds? Also, Waffle House tweeted "Yes. We will be doing things for Mr. Shaw. Details have not be finalized yet!" - did they do something? I can't find answers on my initial searches. MartinezMD (talk) 02:43, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"In May 2018, Shaw met with Emma González, who survived the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and anti-gun activist who helped to found Never Again MSD, whom she tweeted about Shaw titled "my hero". Together, along with survivors and activists David Hogg, Alex Wind, and Jaclyn Corin among others, the whole group united for a special brunch at a local Tennessee Denny's."

These sentences don't seem to make sense. I suspect and anti-gun activist should most likely be an anti-gun activist however I am not fully aware of these facts. This first sentence is also a run-on sentence and it fails to communicate a coherent idea. The second sentence structure is off as well, making for a convoluted statement. Perhaps review appropriate usage of phrases: "together", "along with" and "among others" EyeOmega (talk) 19:24, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this individual meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines and should thus be deleted. Praiawart (talk) 16:04, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
