Making a Killing: Guns, Greed, and the NRA (2016)
Ignore the Negative reviews by the NRA "reviewers"
This is an excellent, powerful film. When I first heard about it I do what I always do, which is to look up the reviews on IMDb. At first, I was struck by the 4.2 rating and thought, "this must be a bad film". Then I read the reviews. Read them yourself. Written by NRA supporters, they distort the reality of gun violence in America. This movie exposes, quite skillfully, the role of gun manufacturers in the murder of our children.
Any honest look at the role of guns the United States, shows irrefutable evidence that the United States is a complete outlier in the world. Guns are rampant and gun violence is rampant. Other countries that have reasonable gun control laws have less violence.
And within the United States, those states that have the most stringent gun laws have the lowest murder rates.
This is an excellent film that connects the dots between the National Rifle Association, which is nothing more than a propaganda arm for gun manufacturers, and the epidemic of gun violence that is destroying America.
I watched this movie on the evening of the "March for our Lives" in the wake of the Parkland murders in Florida. It is my fervent hope that everybody in America think seriously about how we can reduce gun violence and how we could nullify the power of the gun manufacturers. Quite simply, gun manufacturers literally choose their own personal wealth over the lives of their fellow citizens. Watch this movie. Watch dozens of parents describe the horror of burying their children. Than do anything you can to publicize this movie. Give it a 10 rating and ask your friends to watch.
