On Tuesday July 16th at 7:30pm, the NFOA and Tugg.com are pleased to present Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire at Twin Creek Cinema in Bellevue Nebraska. Tugg.com is a company that works with organizations and smaller production companies to get movies into local theaters. The NFOA is presenting the movie, which means we've committed to promotions to sell a minimum of 81 tickets for the showing. (I've already bought mine, so now we just need 80 more to confirm the showing.) Unlike other mainstream movie showings, tickets must be prepurchased and this event will only happen if we reserve the minimum number of tickets before the deadline. [BUY TICKETS HERE] (http://www.tugg.com/events/4620) Your credit card won't be charged until the minimum number of tickets have been reserved and the movie showing is confirmed.
Here's the trailer: Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire - Theatrical Trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDziWcKQxr8#ws)
And here's the film's description:"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." – United States Constitution, Amendment II
Newtown school shooting. Aurora theater shooting. Tucson supermarket shooting. Are visceral reactions to tragedies trumping the words of our forefathers? Should we allow fear and the growing concern over public safety to limit our civil liberties?
Dead Patriot Films presents “Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire,” a documentary that brings audiences to the center of the controversy over the issue that is dividing our nation – gun control. Narrated by Ice-T, a critically acclaimed rapper and actor, the film takes a critical look at current gun laws and the rising movement to restrict the rights guaranteed by our Second Amendment.
With the original intention of empowering a citizenry’s ability to defend themselves against a corrupt or tyrannical government, the concept today may seem farfetched or the makings of a Hollywood blockbuster. However, it has happened throughout U.S. history. And long before gun control was positioned as a “common sense measure” to combat violence, it was used as a means to oppress certain minority groups. Presently, the growing trend in gun control favors the wealthy and privileged, who leverage their connections to ensure their Second Amendment rights and safety, while those of lesser means struggle.
Informative and emotionally charged, “Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire” is an eye-opening look at the genesis of the Second Amendment to the Constitution, leading the audience to rethink the issues surrounding gun control, and the effect on civil rights and liberty.
After all, what you don’t know can kill you.
