A startling new anti-gun ad released by a San Francisco-based production company encourages children to commit a series of crimes by stealing their parents’ guns and turning them over to school officials, The Daily Caller reported Monday. Sleeper 13 Productions released the controversial video on Dec. 13. It shows a pouty, young boy wandering into his parents’ bedroom, stealing a handgun out of their dresser drawer and then shoving it into his backpack. The boy then carries what is presumably a loaded weapon into his classroom. After class, he approaches the teacher, takes the gun out of his backpack and slams it onto her desk. “Can you take this away? I don’t feel safe with a gun in my house,” the boy says. “Our children deserve a safe world,” the ad says. “Stop gun violence now.”

So many ways this could go bad. I don't even know where to start.

So in doing this, the kids commit almost a half dozen crimes - most, if not all, felonies.
The date on this article is 2014. I'm really curious to know if any kids did this - stole parents' guns and turned them in at school. It would be really interesting to see some videos of that. And how did parents react once they saw the PSA?
I'd like to know more about this, but not really time to Google it right now.

Odd, I did not notice the 2014 date, but this story popped up today in the news feeds of a couple of different breaking news sites that I frequent. When I rechecked those sites tonight, the story was no longer listed under today's headlines.
