The latest video from James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas pits O’Keefe against Piers Morgan and Hollywood. It features O’Keefe going undercover with a colleague, posing as an anti-gun activist, and asking CNN’s Piers Morgan and employees of Robert DeNiro’s Tribeca Films, among others, to sign a petition sponsored by a fictitious group calling for the removal of guns from all movies.

The BATFE needs to target TV and Movies first.
He’s a gutsy guy.
I don’t like the use of a fictitious 4 year old daughter being killed. That’s not right.
He should have gone for to be made movies.
All the responses actually proved the inefectiveness of gun control laws.
Not one mention of the 2nd Amendment from these movie nitwits. Not one.

They actually argued against gun control laws.
That’s just a race to the bottom isn’t it? Would you want to win?
Pretty funny.
The one intelligent dude being interviewed over the phone makes the case and point why gun control over average citizens is impossible.
Drugs are illegal and youn can get them anywhere anytime
Cheap Iphone on Ebay are stolen items and you buy em, jail break em and you have no consciencenabout the transaction because you can’t prove it but, you know an item like that, which comes in a brand new package is stolen.
Stolen items can be bought on ebay...right now.
They expose themselves everyday.
I really like the part where he asks the guy to take a gun out of a movie made in 1984. Even if they stopped making movies with guns in them, there are tens of thousands of movies with guns in them from the past hundred years.
Hollywood is full of self-righteous hypocrites.
No actual 4-year-olds were harmed in the making of the video.
I could see objecting to his whole dishonest procedure, but if he’s going to make up a foundation and try to get people to sign a petition for it, he might as well fully make his point by using the same level of persuasion that is used to try to get gun control, which his targets overwhelmingly support, passed.
Yeah—makes you hope that he hasn’t outed a Hollywood conservative there. That could really ruin the guy’s career.
Bookmarking.
That’s what they are doing. Exactly what they are doing. 20 of them.
I’m tired of playing by the rules while Dems are using Guerrilla warfare.
If we had played by the rules and fought gentlemanly in the 1770’s, we’d have a Queen Elizabeth.
I totally agree. Our Founding Fathers had no qualms about using the Boston Massacre as a propaganda tool to whip up sentiment against the Crown.
The incident wasn’t quite as clear-cut as was advertised, and the later trial showed the British troops were somewhat provoked.

Six of the soldiers were acquitted. Two who had fired directly into the crowd were charged with murder but were convicted only of manslaughter. Adams was paid eighteen guineas by the British soldiers, or about the cost of a pair of shoes.[21]
But as a propaganda tool, the Patriot’s use of the Boston Massacre was very important.
We are at war today, just as surely as we were in 1776. Rules went out the window long ago. The ONLY rule we should observe is that we win.

He does have brass ones, but he should tell his editor that it’s “effect” change. Also, the lying about the daughter killed is not good.
