Gun control PSA tells kids to steal guns from parents...

[ezkl2230]

Take them to school, and turn them over to teachers for confiscation if they don't "feel safe" having guns in their homes. So to accomplish the noble end of getting guns out of houses, kids are encouraged to commit at least three different felonies.

The GC crowd don't trust teachers to carry guns for their own protection, but they trust them to turn guns over to police for confiscation.

Unbelieveable.

I just left a tweet for the "queen": @QueenSincic your "PSA" tells kids to commit 3 separate felonies. I hope they throw the book at you if some kid does what you suggest - especially if they get killed doing it.

 

[r1derbike]

There is a special kind of stupid possessed by left-wing nutjobs who make this effluent.

I'll defend her right to make it, but there is one huge problem; she is showing a minor breaking laws. Some felonious.

Blatantly stupid PSA making. I'm flummoxed that this is still on youtube.

If the anti's are true to form they will expel the student for bringing a (gasp) gun to SCHOOL! Remember they a zero tolerance!

I think you undercounted the felonies. I think there's at least four state crimes plus the federal charge.

That has to be the least thought out "ad" any anti-gunner has ever produced. What a nit-wit.

 

[Bluestar99]

Maybe they should include having the kids take Dads heroin and Moms meth in while they are at it. This PSA might be the single most irresponsible thing I have ever seen.

I agree with everyone here that this is a very dangerous and stupid ad. Being a gun owner brings on greater responsibility and even more so if you are a parent. I can't watch the video but the Blaze write up makes it sound like it is fairly easy for the kid to get the gun. If a gun owner finds themselves with that type of setup they need to rethink their set up for keeping a gun in the house. Hopefully those of us who are parents and gun owners will be insulted by they way this ad portrays us as gun owners and our inability to secure our own guns.

And here we go again......Blaming the target of the propaganda campaign for the propaganda campaign.

It never fails around here.

Sent them this letter.

Sir or Madam;
.
It is with great concern that I write to you about the recent PSA suggesting kids bring their parents’ guns to school if they feel scared. Please be advised that an underage person who steals, possesses, transports and enters any school property has committed multiple felonies. He has endangered his fellow students both in school and on the school bus as he doesn’t know how to secure the weapon. He is at increased risk of negligent discharge, killing and maiming those around him. There is further risk that someone may take the gun from him prompting a conflict over a gun, possibly on school property. Finally, the teacher who takes possession of the firearm has committed a felony offense for the illegal possession and additionally, a second felony possession on school grounds. Those who tell kids to do this are guilty of crimes against a minor as well. I would be extremely afraid to send my child to school knowing another child may be bringing a firearm into class. I’m even more afraid for my child when I see such flawed thinking on the part of educated people. We do commit felonies. Smart adults and good parents do not teach their children to engage in dangerous acts or commit felonies.
.
This was an extremely bad idea. Please put the errors of pure academia and political correctness aside and take a walk through the ghetto. You’ll then see that none of these laws matter. You’re getting robbed at gun point by the local wildlife.

I sent the following email to the school board:

To the Members of the Board:


It it truly disturbing to see your name associated with a video that encourages young people to commit multiple felonies in the name of gun control.


STEALING a firearm - felony number one.


TRANSPORTING a firearm for which an underage person has no license - felony number two.

ENTERING school property with a firearm - felony number three.


TRANSFERRING that stolen firearm - felony number four.


Now the teacher becomes a felon by RECEIVING stolen property - felony number five.


The teacher now illegally TRANSPORTS a firearm for which they do not have a license - felony number six.


Now let's consider the other potential consequences resulting from compliance with this video.


A young person bringing a firearm onto a school campus, at the very least, triggers a lockdown - which also necessitates an armed police response. Such a response increases the possibility of the student bringing the firearm onto the campus facing those armed officers; responding in the wrong manner can end in the death of that student.


While well intentioned, this video and the approach it champions was not well considered, and your association with it increases your liability should any student actually try to carry out the course of action it delineates.
Please reconsider your association with this video.


Sincerely,

Here is the response I received today:

Dear Mr. ********,


Thank you for your email and inquiry. We would like to clarify the following:


North Oakland Community Charter School (NOCCS) did not review, approve, or endorse the YouTube video produced by Rejina Sincic and Sleeper 13 Productions entitled “Stop Gun Violence”. We did allow use of our facility to film a video for a public service announcement. We were not aware of the contents of the video nor were we aware that our name would be used. We have sent a request to the film maker asking that she remove our school’s name from the video. NOCCS does not condone or support bringing guns to school.


We are in the process of making this statement available via our website to others inquiring about our involvement.



Best.

Yup - it was spur of the moment kind of thing.

My letter to the school board lists at least 6 probable felonies, and probably a few more could be added.

 

[aacx22]

That is just psychotic.

 

[RJT CCW]

That is just psychotic.

And this is how many with this leaning think. (Or don't think as the case may be).

Do you understand influencing a child to steal, possess, transport and enter school property with a firearm has helped in the commitment of multiple felonies.

God forbid the child or others are harmed as a result.

When I was in grade school 50 years ago, we actually brought guns into the classroom and hunted rabbits on the way home, before our schools were taken over by Liberal Idiots.

By the way I also got my butt beat when I needed it, and when I got home I usually got another one from my Dad and no one came to take pictures of the welts on my butt.

And all of us had respect for our parents, our teacher and each other.

We also didn’t have a bulling problem back then, we just duked it out and parted as best friends.

I my glad I wouln’t be around for the next 50 years and see what else you Liberal idiots can accomplish.

You are correct - I watched the video. It tries to inject an emotional appeal based on safety of children into the gun control debate, but it does a poor job of it with an inane story board.

However, it is just as obviously not about encouraging children to take their parent;s guns to school.

It's a dumb commercial, but those who are writing emails and letters and posts depicting it as a "take your parent's gun to school to turn them in" ad are just exhibiting..well how do I say this nicely...not at the range with a fully loaded clip.

It is just another inane attempt to use emotional appeal in the gun control debate, same as when some waves the flag, mom, and apple pie to oppose gun control.

Moreover, those who think the point of the commercial is to encourage children to take their parent's firearms and turn them into their teacher, and then openly complain of that depiction of the commercial, are simply giving the anti-gun control forces more ammunition for their side:

1. Those guniots are not intrelligent enough to perceive the obvious point of the commercial (whether or not they disagree with that point) so how can we trust them to own a firearm?

2. Of all the things they complained about, they seemed unconcerned that a child has unfettered access to a firearm.

We need pro-2A groups and individuals to think before flapping their lips.

After receiving tens of thousands of dislikes and critical remarks - and the school where she shot the video disavowing it - she has disabled all comments on her video. But her twitter feed indicates that she thinks the massive negative feedback is hilarious.

 

[NavyLCDR]

The video is back up....this time with comments disabled and the credits removed. Everyone needs to re-report this video to youtube for containing dangerous and illegal activities.

Under the video you will find the word "More." Click it and a drop-down menu appears. Select "Report" and follow prompts from there. I categorized my report under the heading, "Harmful dangerous acts > Other dangerous acts" and when the comments box came up, this is what I said:

Several felonies are depicted in this video. The minor steals a gun from his mom (felony), brings the gun into school (felony), gives the gun to a teacher (felony on the teacher's part for receiving stolen property and being in possession of a gun inside of a school), and absolutely nothing is said or implied in the video that kids shouldn't follow the example of the actor in the scene. The video should be removed and the channel warned not to encourage felonious behavior in the future.

You only have 500 characters, so type concisely.

This really is about the dumbest anti-gun video I've ever seen. I've seen plenty where the copy or content presented ignorant and stupid ideas, but never one like this where they've been made aware that they're promoting crimes and still go to the trouble of revamping the video to remove credits, disable comments so they don't have to hear that they're promoting the crimes they're promoting, and then re-up the video as though they did nothing wrong.

I'll be kind of surprised if YT does anything about it though. We'll see....
