The last victim to remain hospitalized, 15-year-old Anthony Borges, was discharged from hospital on April 4. Dubbed "the real Iron Man", Borges was shot five times after he used his body to barricade the door of a classroom where twenty students were inside. Upon his release, Borges issued a statement that criticized the actions of Broward Sheriff's deputies, Sheriff Scott Israel, and School Superintendent Robert Runcie.

I think it’s also important to see his photo at the time, and remember he was 15 years old:

I wish people would also remember 15 year old Peter Wang, who died holding open the door for others to escape during the same shooting.
