Trayvon's death - Not in Vain

Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, the parents of Trayvon Martin, the Florida teen who was shot and killed by a self-appointed neighborhood watch captain last February, share memories of their son with over 3,000 child advocates in the National and Racial Healing Town Hall at the Children's Defense Fund's (CDF) national conference in Cincinnati, Ohio. Determined to turn the pain and grief for a child lost into something positive - Trayvon's parents called for advocates, particularly the 1,400 young people present, to organize and be vocal about protecting children like Trayvon from senseless gun violence and racial profiling. Fulton urged participants to take to social media networks, and Martin echoed: If you stand for what you believe in, others will stand with you.

Over the last 5 to 6 years, over 60,000 people have lost their lives in Mexico's drug-related wave of violence. More than 70% of the weapons seized in Mexico in the last three years and submitted for tracing came from the U.S. (Source: ATF)

President Obama has the power to help stop gun smugglers who are fueling violence in Mexico. We're demanding him to:

1) Enforce the existing ban on the importation of military-style assault weapons (because many of them are later illegally smuggled into Mexico);

2) Require gun dealers to report to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) the sale of multiple assault rifles to the same person over a period of five days (GOOD NEWS: the Obama Administration has announced new reporting rules on multiple semiautomatic rifles in border states. A great first step -- let's keep the momentum going!);

3) Strengthen legal enforcement in regions of the U.S. that supply the bulk of the contraband weapons smuggled into Mexico.
