I said to the mayor,
"This is our country.
:36:07
As Americans we're free
to travel wherever we want
:36:11
in our broad land."
[ applause ]
:36:22
Don't come here?
We're already here.
:36:26
[ cheering ]
:36:33
- I am here today...
:36:36
because my son Daniel
would want me to be here today.
:36:50
If my son Daniel
was not one of the victims,
:36:54
he would be here with me today.
:37:01
Something is wrong
in this country...
:37:05
when a child...
:37:08
can grab a gun...
grab a gun so easily...
:37:12
and shoot a bullet...
:37:18
into the middle of a child's
face, as my son experienced.
:37:25
Something is wrong.
:37:26
But the time has come
to come to understand
:37:31
that a Tech-9 semi-automatic
30-bullet weapon
:37:36
like that that killed my son,
:37:38
is not used to kill deer.
:37:41
It has no useful purpose.
:37:44
It is time to address
this problem.
:37:51
- We have work to do,
hearts to heal,
:37:54
evil to defeat
and a country to unite.
:37:57
We may have differences, yes,
:37:59
and we will again suffer tragedy
almost beyond description.
