MEDIA (WPVI) -- The deadly shooting in Florida has renewed the calls for a ban on weapons, such as the one used by the suspect in the massacre.

A rally was held outside the courthouse in Media, Delaware County Friday night.

Demonstrators pushed for Senator Pat Toomey to add his name to a list of co-sponsors of Senate bill 2095.

It was introduced in November by California Senator Dianne Feinstein and calls for a ban on assault, and semi-automatic weapons, such as the AR-15 rifle which was used in the Florida shooting.
