MAKING A KILLING: GUNS, GREED, AND THE NRA

Showing of the powerful 90 minute film that is turning up the heat on the gun violence industry.The brand new film from Robert Greenwald and Brave New Films (‘Koch Brothers Exposed’, ‘War on Whistleblowers’ and ‘Unmanned:America’s Drone Wars’.)
Did you ever wonder who is profiting from our national epidemic 
of gun violence?   Who is making money from the grief of our mothers, fathers, and 
families?

Making A Killing is the latest documentary from Brave New Films 
and director Robert Greenwald. The film tells the stories of how 
guns, and the billions made off of them, affect the lives of 
everyday Americans. It features personal stories from people 
across the country who have been affected by gun violence, 
including survivors and victims' families. The film exposes how 
the powerful gun companies and the NRA are resisting responsible 
legislation for the sake of profit - and thereby putting people 
in mortal danger.The film looks into gun tragedies that include 
unintentional shootings, domestic violence, suicides, mass 
shootings and trafficking - and what we can do to put an end to 
this profit-driven crisis.
