O'Neill and his wife, Heather, purchased 21 backpacks and 10 shopping bags to represent the victims in both the Uvalde and Buffalo tragedies. They placed them in their front yard in the 300 block of Northview Drive and are calling the art installation"31 Bags for Change." He said they purposely left the victims' names off the backpacks and shopping bags to make this more relatable, showing this can happen in any city.
