SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (KEYT) Former California State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson, who is celebrating Hanukkah, shared her reaction to the deadly shootings in Australia.

"When you allow people filled with hate, rage and ignorance to access firearms they certainly can and will continue to act out and destroy the lives of innocent people. We know in Australia, that this was an act of antisemitism, we know that 15 people have lost their lives at a time when we celebrate a wonderful holiday of happiness and thanks that is filled with family and children," said Jackson, " This is inexcusable and actions need to be taken to stop this kind of hatred, to stop this lack of understanding to stop this cruelty."

Jackson also spoke out against the shooting at Brown University.

She urged lawmakers to make a commitment to take action to end this kind of violence in the nation and the world.
