Here's an email I got from the staff at Gunsamerica.

Hi Everyone.
I would just like to warn gun owners and especially hunters to NOT BUY a movie on the rack at Wal-Mart this week called "The Iron Giant" for your kids. It looks like a great movie and overall it actually is, but it demonizes deer hunters and guns in general. It is THE WORST I have seen to date. The focus on the gun and say "guns kill" over and over again. The whole point of the movie is that the robot doesn't want to be a gun.

If you don't want to be surprized by a movie you innocently bought for your kids, avoid it, really. They could have introduced the concept of death to the big robot any number of ways, but the Hollywood elitists chose to use deer hunters.

These hypocrite trained monkeys probably went to lunch at Arbys everyday to eat a cow that someone else killed for them, WITHOUT A GUN.

Blech blech blech why can't these idiots understand that America has real problems, and none of them have to do with hunters or guns.

Or better yet, rent the movie, watch it with the kids, point out the stuff that doesn't make sense, and explain why it doesn't.

Don't hide anti-gun messages from the kids--defeat them. There comes an age when any info the kid discovers "on his own" that contradicts what they've been brought up with is considered OBVIOUSLY right. Better innoculate them agaist the anit-gun, anti-hunter message before that age.

And innoculation means controlled exposure. Give me a kid raised by antigun parents, who get some pro-gun exposure, and a kid raised by pro-gun parents who get some anti-gun exposure. My guess is both kids have a lower likelihood of ending up anti-gun.

Keeping information away from kids: that's the other side's tactic. Not ours.
 
In the "gun circles," a movie credited with doing more harm to hunting and conservation than any other before or since and influencing the animal "rights" movement, is Bambi.
