Gun Control Ad Tells Kids to Steal Their Parents’ Guns and Bring Them to the Worst Possible Location
"Gun control advocate and independent filmmaker Rejina Sincic has created what she calls a PSA aimed at “reducing gun violence in schools and communities.”
The video depicts a teenage boy sneaking into his mother’s room, taking a gun out of her dresser drawer (who knows if it’s loaded or unloaded), putting it in his backpack and then taking it to school. After class, he waits for the other students to leave then puts the gun on the teacher’s desk and says, “Can you take this away? I don’t feel safe with a gun in my house.”
I know I am supposed to be very moved by this, especially by the accompanying treacly music, but all I did was laugh, it is so corny. Btw, the producers of this piece of dreck are advising young people to commit a felony rather than discuss their concerns with their parents. Oh, just bleck. I also wonder if the teacher, should she accept the weapon, is liable for receiving stolen property.
