Our school library got Field and Stream and Outdoor Life, both of which had gun articles. The librarian always gave the news ones to me as soon as they came in. I had no idea I was sending off signs by reading them in class.

She did the same for the motorcycle magazines. Not sure what message that sent.

Someone needs to recut that with the Inception base line drops, or the Prometheus siren wails each time they show him in the background.

Well since this was from a sandyhook group it'd be weird if this was about black on black crime. And while I'm not sure reading a gun magazine should send off alarms I also think it's possible to have more than one problem in this country. Also, what is the harm in noticing someone has an obsession with guns and mentioning it just so people can have a closer look and rule them out as just hunters as opposed to school shooters?

Jesus for all the "snowflake" "thin skinned millennial" talk a lot of people in here got very offended that being obsessed with guns could be considered a warning for a school shooter.

The whole point of the PSA was school shootings by troubled teens, not "guns are evil!!!" Have some comprehension skills. The point, and if you research most of the planned out school shootings, is there are signs leading up to it. And yes one of the signs is an obsession with guns and death. Along with no friends, troubled home life, poor social skills, threatening social media messages, essentially everything else they showed in the video. The point was just be aware of your surroundings, could help prevent a tragedy like a bunch of kids dying. But no let's focus on the fact that they dared tread even slightly on the sanctity of the holy gun

Just another example of liberal progressive controlled media.

Reminds of those ridiculous anti-crack commercials in the 80s.

While the black communities in the inner-cities were being ravaged by crack, the commercials would show some blonde cheerleader in Suburbia first trying pot at a party, then she's snorting coke under the bleachers and a week later she's in some crack house in the city.

It was so laughable. Every 80s drug PSA.
