In a PSA created by the San Francisco-based production company, Sleeper 13, children are encouraged to steal their parents gun, take it to school and turn it over to their parents.
This not only encourages children to break several laws, but puts their safety at risk.
The boy is shown opening the drawer to his mother’s dresser, where a handgun is hidden.
The boy takes the gun from the dresser and leaves the room. The ad then flashes to his school. Sitting in a classroom, the boy ventures up to his teacher’s desk after the rest of his classmates have left.
The tension building in the scene breaks, and the boy produces the gun from his backpack, slamming it on his startled teacher’s desk.
“Can you take this away? I don’t feel safe with a gun in my house,” the boy says.
What the ad-makers are encouraging is highly illegal and invites danger.
The boy would be guilty of weapons theft, illegal concealed carry and carrying a weapon on school property.
The ad’s director, Rejina Sencic, took to Twitter to taunt those she says are “afraid to share” her ad.
Lot of people are afraid to share my PSA! If you are not a coward please share https://t.co/q2sisRKCN1 … … #gunviolence

Foolishness.
Democrats are just plain retarded.
Is this Nazi Germany, or what? Isn’t this what happened there? Kids were turned against their parents. This is really pathetic and very dangerous! Whoever thought of this sick idea indeed is promoting evil on the older population.
You go Lee Taylor !,,,,,!
Insanity!
Teach kids to STEAL, Must be the NEW Educational system, In Germany during World War 2 , All the kids where taught , was to SPY on their Parents, and turn them in , to be dealt with accordingly !!!!!!
I think there was a guy with a awful mustache that tried to turn kids against their parents in WW2. Subverting kids or using kids to make a point or influencing kids to follow a certain ideology that goes against the law of that nation is how a fanatic recruits. Guns are just another tool, its not guns that have killed people through the ages its just the latest way, it is people that kill. And with as many illegal guns as we have in the hands of criminals, gangs, and cartels I am glad I can still own one.

This woman is in line with marxist . Seriously wants children to turn against the family & turn gun into the state. One more reason the teachers union should be disband .
what the hell is wrong with people!!!!! Number 1 that is illegal on so many fronts and in so many ways you can’t even count them all! Number 2 talk about child endangerment!!! Especially if that child has no been taught how to respect that weapon and trained how to behave with it and handle it properly!!! This is illegal, a crime, entrapment, dangerous, stupid and utterly wrong
