There are... well... more than five artists using this name, because, let's just face it--neither "Chris" nor "Murphy" is really all that uncommon a name. The first is the bassist/drummer/vocalist of the Canadian band Sloan. The second placed fourth on the 2006 season of Australian Idol, and was involved in Murphy's Lore (with his younger brother, Courtney Murphy). The third is a jazz saxophonist/organist whose website is http://www.chrismurphysax. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Chris+Murphy

Quotes

• “They have fundamentally different problems than other people.”
• “Your 'thoughts' should be about steps to take to stop this carnage. Your 'prayers' should be for forgiveness if you do nothing -- again.”
• “Why did you sign up for this job if you are not prepared to use it — if you're not prepared to use it to try to solve big problems?”
• “There is not something fundamentally different about the American DNA that causes us to have a level of gun violence that is 20 times that of other first-world nations....It happens here because we choose to allow it to happen. We have a celebratory culture of guns, and the loosest firearms laws in the world.”
• “We have a moral obligation to act and not accept that this [gun violence] is inevitable.”
• “You have entire communities whose biologies are being changed by gun violence.”
