Earlier this week 6 people, including 3 children, were murdered when someone opened fire in a school in Nashville. 

Australian actress Tammin Sursok lives in Nashville and received a call that no parent would ever wish to answer. Her daughter's school was in lockdown because there was an active shooter. 

In this episode of The Quicky we speak to Tammin about what that moment was like, and if anything can be done to reverse Americas obsession with the second amendment.
