Yesterday evening, JPFO's latest documentary _The Gang_
( www.thegangmovie.com)
premiered at the Lamphouse Theater in Twin Falls, Idaho to a full
audience. The showing was organized by Ryan Horsley of Red's Trading
Post, a recent target of the BATFE (see www.jpfo.org/redstradingpost.htm
). Among those in attendance was Richard Celata of KT Ordnance, another
victim of BATFE abuse who also appears in the film.
A stunned silence followed the closing credits, quickly followed
by a flurry of questions for Horsley and Celata. The audience, appearing
generally concerned and disturbed, were passionate about what they
could do to make a difference.
Media representatives also took note of the film, with articles appearing
in the Magic Valley Times-News ( http://www.magicvalley.com/articles/2007/06/14/news/local_state/114202.txt
or http://tinyurl.com/2ezsh3
) and on the website of the local CBS affiliate KMVT.com (
http://www.kmvt.com/news/local/7988847.html or http://tinyurl.com/246xmg
). Both articles make special note of the Nazi roots of the 1968 Gun
Control Act. Horsley also reports that another reporter has contacted
him about doing a story as well. We will keep you informed as more
information comes in.
Red's will be holding a follow-up showing of _The Gang_
at the same time and location this evening. If you can attend, we
urge you to do so. If not, contact JPFO at jpfo@jpfo.org
for information on how you can hold a showing in your own town.
