"Under The Gun" Screening & Panel Discussion in Frederick

Under The Gun Screening & Panel Discussion in Frederick
FYI - I just noticed this anti event posted via Twitter. I would attend, but I will be out of town.

Should we protest the Frederick library's complicity in perpetrating this preposterous propaganda?
Any thoughts?

Couric has already apologized for "deceptive" (read fraudulent) edits, and I thought the producer, EPIX had pulled the propaganda piece from distribution.

Library phone# to complain: 301-600-1630
Frederick County Council# to complain: 301-600-1135 or email: councilmembers@frederickcountymd.gov

Pack the house!

Would be interesting to see who's on the panel.

Surely they reached out to MSI.

:rolleyes:

dogbone · Jul 28, 2016

Maybe Mopar can attend after having a few bean burritos?

W2D · Jul 28, 2016

I can't make it, but I just sent an email complaining that MSI wouldn't be invited.

It would be great if the VCDL members were in the audience.

I can't make it, but have sent an email to the Council members stating my disappointment in the airing of this and asking if they have invited pro-gun groups for the discussion afterwards.

Does anybody really attend these things?

If someone does and has an opposing viewpoint, IMO, they should think about what they can control and disseminate. Not just go to be an edited piñata. We have plenty of experience with that. Patriot Picket with video of our spokesman recounting Everytown's/Curric's errors and fraudulent behavior, and our objections and opposing viewpoints? Put it on our site or channel? Something where we control the content and venue (even if it is right outside their event).

Moms demand action always has a large and packed table at every Frederick First Saturday event. Pisses me off every month I see them.

The truly disturbing thing with the whole situation is that FredCo Government is appearing to grant legitimacy to the anti-gun cause, by allowing them to use a public library to push their agenda.

What the MDA doesn't realize is that FredCo residents are very heavily armed.

The original ones, yes. A few Montgomery county transplants, yes. Most of the other MC and DC transplants, hell no.

Hmmm, want to help man an MSI table at every Frederick First Saturday event?

Wonder if streaming the discussion live on MDShooter's FB page would be welcome?

You and I both know that MDA would never allow that to happen...

If it is a public event held in a public location, I don't see how they could stop it.

DC-W · Jul 29, 2016

Someone should suggest a screening of "ASSAULTED: Civil Rights Under Fire," a gun-rights documentary.

I used to have a legit copy, but only have a duplicate for personal use. Probably not kosher for viewing publicly.

W2D · Jul 29, 2016

Hmm. Think MDA is allowed to screen publicly?

Allowed? Hell, they're probably being paid to screen it.

The reply I got (rather quickly) from the Commissioner's office:

I believe you are referring to a screening of this film at the C. Burr Artz Library planned for this weekend by the Frederick Chapter of Moms Demand Action. This group is not affiliated with the Frederick County Council nor is the Council a sponsor of the event.

Thank you for getting in touch,
Jessica Fitzwater

Glad to hear this is just the Mom's using a public place. No different that DCW's suggestion, which I think is a great one.
