Anti-gun PSA sparks outrage

[OLDNEWBIE]

This PSA was not very well thought out. I agree with many on here, what happens when some brainwashed kid takes his or her lead from this PSA, and something tragic happens when he or she tries to be a good little drone.

Perhaps it was very well thought out, the antis love School shootings or guns found on kids in Schools. Risking kids lives to further their cause of disarming Americans is O.K. with them.
They are firm believers in the ends justifying the means.
Yes I believe this was VERY well thought out!

<- Why there aren't any school shootings in Israel!
Teacher with long gun slung over her shoulder!!!

Well. I've filed two complaints about it and both times they've come back that it doesn't violate their gun rules nor harming others so I guess they got paid off by Bloomturd!

Oakland school disowns gun control video made on campus

 

[usagi]

They tried to remove the original video and now have reposted it with comments disabled:

Idiots.

We were not aware of the contents of the video nor were we aware that our name would be used."

Uh huh - maybe they did NOT see a script for it or see it prior to release but I'll be they were TOLD it was an anti-gun message. Even then I am sure they would have 'approved' it - and are only reacting in this manner due to overwhelming NEGATIVE public reaction to it.

Gramstorff could not say how much money her school was paid to film at her school.

More like WOULD not say. If the school is sincere about "But this video was not the optimal way to approach the situation." then maybe they should prove it by donating whatever they were paid to a worthy cause.

Wouldn't bringing a firearm to a school result in an automatic expulsion and possibly a permanent suspension for the student.

That's just a start for a very long list of local, state, and federal laws being broken.
I'm still waiting to find out if local police will investigate the laws that were actually broken just filming this video. It certainly appears that a firearm replica was present on a school campus, and a good place to start questioning.

Yea right I'll bet there will be some sort 'dispensation' (maybe the wrong word) granted with regard to any specific laws that might have been broken. I mean heck look how many laws 'appear' to have been broken during the filming of TV and movie stuff. However on a different note was it just ME or did anyone else find the PSA had a weird, creepy 'undertone' to it - almost like a sublime attempt at mind control - I mean the kid in it showed no emotion - like the act of taking the gun and telling the teacher 'He did not feel safe etc' was 'imposed' on him and NOT a personal belief.

Waste of time. Did you forget?, the anti-gun libs get a free pass. 30 round magazines in D.C. = jail time for most people, not this guy though.

Show me a real school that only has nine students in a classroom.

It is possible it could be a coincidence but his trigger finger control tends to support this theory. If the kid was anti gun he probably would not have ever learned to handle one correctly.

Current kid actors are all like that. When my daughters were younger they'd watch actors with looks but no skills.

No because the S D would waive all those restrictions for the students because the gun was taken from their stupid knuckle draggin gun freak parent who did not lock them up....

 

[Caveman Jim]

They want to stop gun violence???? They want kids to disarm their parents secretively so that when a thug does a home invasion the "WHOLE FAMILY" is screwed!!!!

This kind of stupidity has got to stop!!!!

Surprise! It was filmed at a real school - a public charter school in Oakland. Apparently, school officials had no idea about the purpose of the ad being filmed. Oops.

Excerpt:

A charter school here is distancing itself from a controversial anti-gun video filmed on campus over the summer that shows a student bringing a gun to school and giving it to his teacher.

North Oakland Community Charter School Director Carolyn Gramstorff said the school rented space to San Francisco filmmaker Rejina Sincic but had no idea the content would become so divisive on both sides of the gun control debate.

She said she has asked Sincic and Sleeper 13 Productions to remove the school name in credits at the end of the 2½-minute video but has run into a wall of silence from both.
...

The film, called "Stop Gun Violence-PSA" (http://bit.ly/1CEwcuS), is getting negative comments from all sides of the debate on gun control because it shows a kid bringing a gun to school in his backpack.

"We do not advocate for children to bring guns, real or fake, to school," Gramstorff said when contacted by telephone in Florida on Tuesday.

My point is to determine if any laws were actually broken during the production of the video, and if so, what authorities should be notified.

Be like the Horny Moms, who don't need facts: The locale is a gun-free school zone. If you believe some laws were broken during the filming, file a complaint with the local US District Attorney.

Woohoo!

If your having trouble sleeping, that vid should do the trick ZZZZZZZZZZZ

I think we need a follow up PSA where Mom's door gets broken down by thugs and the kid gets to watch her get raped and killed after she retreats to the bedroom to get the gun that's no longer there.
