I hope to see this someday but have no idea when or where it'll be distributed. Check out the article (a little long) and the 2:20 trailer.

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has 'challenged' Mayor Michael Bloomberg to watch the gun rights documentary, Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire, with some pretty strong language.

"Mayor Bloomberg has been acting as though the Second Amendment is a heavily-regulated privilege that his millions of dollars can buy and sell on a rich man’s whim. This 80-minute film dispels that delusion."

I already wanted to see this film. After this, my interest is heightened.

"...Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire takes a bold look at the racist roots of gun control, and also bluntly reveals the anti-gun mindset to be elitist and prone to demagoguery. People from both sides of the debate are interviewed, and the film is already receiving good reviews from Variety, the Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly and Breitbart.com. Indeed, Variety notes that the film “comes across as too thoughtful and well researched – in short, too reasonable – to be easily dismissed as mere agitprop.

Michael Bloomberg has been living and thinking in something of a vacuum, where he has deliberately avoided the kind of civil rights wake-up discussion found throughout Koenig’s film,” Gottlieb said. “That’s why he needs to see it, and he ought to take Barack Obama, Andrew Cuomo, Dianne Feinstein and several others along as his guests.

“Kris Koenig’s film should also be required viewing for every member of Congress and certainly for every student of civil rights,” he added. “Mayor Bloomberg should sit through it twice."

I think Bloomberg and the others named should be given the film watching experience featured in A Clockwork Orange. Anyone agree?
