As an American, I demand the basic freedom to walk my streets in safety — including the freedom to go to the store and buy Skittles without getting shot.

I will hold accountable any elected official that puts guns in the hands of dangerous people – people like George Zimmerman, the man who killed Trayvon Martin.  Zimmerman had an arrest record and a history of violence, yet was still allowed to walk his streets with a loaded, hidden gun.  That is the gun lobby’s vision of America.  It is not mine.

I will hold accountable any elected official that puts the extremist, political agenda of the gun lobby ahead of the safety and lives of the people they have been elected to represent.

I oppose the "George Zimmerman Armed Vigilante Act" and I demand Congress take action to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.
