Well said.

A "documentary" that tires to steer towards: anti-gun, "fear" as an erroneous thesis, "military style" and "national debate" catch phrases. Unfortunately for pbs it comes up short on substance.

nothing but propaganda. the trailer alone reaks of it. the hypocrisy of the last comment after the NRA representative stating there is no place where gun violence doesn't effect. naturally this is true. it just took the deaths of 20 white children to wake up the reality of what minorities have dealt with and shows the bias, ignorance and dependency of populace upon authority to take care of them rather than their own self determination. america is becoming a nation of lemmings.

[chitownmo]

not neccessarily. states are taking measures against and the gun rights have been defended when exposing the lies of anti gun media against gun ownership through their baiting, oversensationalism, faulty insinuations concerning gun ownerships and flat out lies concerning gun violence statistics in america.

Some people cant accept change. -_-

Gun regulations and laws will change, they always have, they always will. This year may be "Gun bans" and in ten years it may be "strollers with guns"...lol. Either way, instead of getting mad about it, just accept that its not up to your vote alone and there is a good chance that bans on some guns and clips will come about. It has very little to do with newtown, newtown was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

Whatever PBS, it's not like your videos ever go viral. Moderate comments all you want, the rage has already spread about the issue, your little documentary even highlights that fact.

Not sure that blood will ever come off. A Terrible Curse for the USA.
