    This ad takes advantage of the fears and anxieties that are so prevalent within our society today. The ad portrays liberals as being extremely violent and seems to suggest that the only way to fight back and stay safe is to arm yourself and join the NRA. If taken literally, this ad certainly incites violence.

    This add is saying guns are safe and liberals are violent. Not sure how that is going to bring people together.

    I was confused by this ad for a moment, because it kept showing places across America and the references were aimed in a hateful manner against our former and current president. I was thinking this was an attack video from another country! Not something in house! This shows violence to enforce violence. It's not helpful, its harmful and meant to rile up a certain demographic.
