Story highlights Clinton speaks at "Circle of Mothers" conference, an event hosted by the Trayvon Martin Foundation

Clinton knocks Trump's remarks made at the NRA

Fort Lauderdale, Florida (CNN) Hillary Clinton on Saturday slammed Republican rival Donald Trump as a politician beholden to the gun lobby and said a Trump presidency would mean "more kids at risk of violence and bigotry."

Clinton's comments, which came at the Trayvon Martin Foundation's third annual "Circle of Mothers" meeting, came a day after Trump used a speech at a National Rifle Association convention to blast Clinton as ill-prepared for the presidency and to falsely claim that Clinton "wants to abolish the Second Amendment."

The NRA endorsed Trump on Friday.

"Unlike Donald Trump, I will not pander to the gun lobby, and we will not be silenced and we will not be intimidated," Clinton said. "As long as children anywhere are being killed by gun violence, we will keep fighting for our kids, because they deserve a president who stands up for them and stands with the mothers here. Their lives are valuable."

Trump said Clinton was "heartless" for backing restrictions on gun ownership, and said he would overturn President Barack Obama's executive actions on guns and do away with gun-free zones, including in schools.
