FORT LAUDERDALE, (United States): A student survivor of the Parkland school shooting called out US President Donald Trump on Saturday (Feb 17) over his ties to the powerful National Rifle Association, in a poignant address to an anti-gun rally in Florida.

"To every politician taking donations from the NRA, shame on you!" said Emma Gonzalez, assailing Trump over the multi-million-dollar support his campaign received from the gun lobby - and prompting the crowd to chant in turn: "Shame on you!"
