Des Moines, Iowa (CNN)-Sybrina Fulton, mother of the late Trayvon Martin, endorsed Hillary Clinton for President on Monday, calling the former secretary of state the candidate best positioned to "stand up to inaction from Republicans and indifference from the NRA" on gun control.

Clinton and Fulton met in November 2015 in Chicago during the Democratic front-runner's meeting with mothers of children who died in shootings or at the hands of law enforcement. The group, according to attendees, discussed Clinton's criminal justice and gun control plans and the mothers presented the candidate with ideas on how to tackle the issue of police brutality.(snip)

"With so many of our children's lives on the line or taken, we simply can't afford to elect a Republican who refuses to even acknowledge the problem of senseless gun violence. The rising generation of our young people need a President who will stand up to inaction from Republicans and indifference from the NRA," Fulton writes in a CNN Opinion piece about the endorsement. "I believe that person is Hillary Clinton."(snip)

"In spending some time with her in person, I also found a mother and a grandmother who truly heard me, and understood the depth of my loss," writes Fulton

..... and understood [how she could use for political purposes] the depth of my loss,” writes Fulton

[goodnesswins]

Well....I guess the Felon Maker Mothers of American will unite behind Hillary....

[Resolute Conservative]

Yeah but Trayvon still cannot endorse anyone...

[simpson96]

I’ve heard her speak when interviewed. There is no way she “wrote” that.

Oh, lookie - The Purple Drank Kid's momma ain't no ways tired of stirring the Race Pot.

Stupid ain't a race, momma.

“With so many of our children’s lives on the line or taken, we simply can’t afford to elect a Republican who refuses to even acknowledge the problem of senseless gun violence.”

Her son died from gun violence because be chose to commit violence on an armed man. She thinks the tragedy of the situation is that her son was killed by his victim.

Let that sink in...

[Trillian]

I wonder who wrote it for her and how much she was paid for the use of her name.
Here’s the millionth reason not to vote for her (as if we needed another reason anyway).

Makes sense. Sabrina was the mother to a low-life criminal.

Hillary is the wife of one.

[VeniVidiVici]

Too bad Trayvon’s mother wasn’t as proactive when it came to raising her son with some morals. He’d probably still be alive.

[Navy Patriot]

Yeah but Trayvon still cannot endorse anyone...

Yet he will certainly vote in 2016, ...several times.

The check must have cleared. Now we need to wait to see if valjar gives hil her approval.

Looks like even hell freezing over won’t help Cankles now.

She may have copied it in cursive.
