Gun control group sucker-punches crowd with *graphic* real footage of shootings (VIDEO)

An anti-gun advocacy group who made waves last year with a fake gun store in New York City tricked moviegoers expecting an action film by showing them footage of actual shootings.

The event, staged by NYC-based Grey Advertising on behalf of States United to Prevent Gun Violence, starts off with various Hollywood films showing guns in action then cuts away to footage of would-be movie goers lining up to see the new film “GunCrazy” in a theater, which in the end just turns out to be various clips of murder, mayhem and gory death that makes old-school splatter sites like Ogrish and Rotten.com pale.

“Our goal with GunCrazy is to showcase the need for society as a whole to re-sensitize themselves to the gruesome consequences of gun violence,” says Julia Wyman, Executive Director of States United to Prevent Gun Violence in a statement. “We encourage people to watch and share this educational PSA featuring first-hand reactions to real footage.”

So far the shocktastic video of people being punked into watching snuff films hasn’t gained many supporters.

But the Coalition to Prevent Gun Violence dug it.
