well this sounds like an excellent idea.


A startling new anti-gun ad released by a San Francisco-based production company encourages children to commit a series of crimes by stealing their parents’ guns and turning them over to school officials, The Daily Caller reported Monday.

Sleeper 13 Productions released the controversial video on Dec. 13. It shows a pouty, young boy wandering into his parents’ bedroom, stealing a handgun out of their dresser drawer and then shoving it into his backpack.

The boy then carries what is presumably a loaded weapon into his classroom. After class, he approaches the teacher, takes the gun out of his backpack and slams it onto her desk.


“Can you take this away? I don’t feel safe with a gun in my house,” the boy says.

“Our children deserve a safe world,” the ad says. “Stop gun violence now.”

The video, first reported by The Blaze, has been met with sharp criticism from gun-rights activists on Sleeper 13’s Facebook page.

That would rate as the dumbest yet from the anti-gun crowd......


I was just thinking the same thing. This is stupidest thing I've ever heard since the last stupidest thing I'd ever heard. A new high in lows, ffs.

Encouraging children to sneak a loaded gun out of the house and into a school. Are these people fu*king retarded? I mean, they'd have to be brain dead right? Un-freaking-believable.

Just waiting for Bluebyrd's comments.............

I cannot get over how anyone could think this is okay. The article mentions 'pro-gun' advocates being outraged, for crying out loud, everyone should be outraged at this. Absolutely freaking brain dead to come up with this idea. If it was April 1st, I'd be sure it was a joke.

Steal a gun...put it in your back pack and leave the house...sneak it into school...whip out the gun in a classroom.


Yup that's our anti-gun nuts.


The War on Guns is lost.

I'd charge the school with illegal possession of a stolen firearm. Then the board. The city, the county then the state and the FCC for allowing the commercial.

By the way, nobody's advocating doing that. It's a dramatisation, at no point does the PSA suggest kids should do this.

Will an 8 yo see it that way?

And while you're rummaging through your parent's things, bring any drugs, alcohol and d¡ldos for the PE teacher.

That's funny. You sound like a Toronto lefty. "We have to make sure no-one can possibly misinterpret the message!"

Shouldn't the kid automatically be ejected from school for carrying a firearm? maybe it is just a ploy by the teacher's union to lessen the workload.

Or maybe the union is trying to collect all the guns so they can stage a coup and replace our democracy with a white collar union dictatorship, more sick days, setting wages to inflation, free dental, professional development.
