They have just released the theatrical trailer for the film which is below.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/2013\/05\/23\/about-assaulted-civil-rights-under-fire-new-star-studded-documentary-looks-at\/?intcmp=features\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The executive producer Kris Koenig was interviewed by FoxNews<\/a> about the film yesterday.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i><br \/>\n\u201c&#8217;Assaulted\u2019 turns the gun debate around. It is a civil rights issue, and we take a look at the history of the Second Amendment. It\u2019s a right that has been abused over the years and one that gets overlooked the most,\u201d the film\u2019s executive producer, writer and director, Kris Koenig, told FOX411\u2019s Pop Tarts column. \u201cIt\u2019s a self-defense right that gets distorted into self-offense. Our civil rights are very precious to us. The reason our country exists is to balance individual rights against the whole. It has kept our country safe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Narrated by Ice-T, the film features myriad voices on the topic. Nugent appears along with Dan Gross, the president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence,as well as UCLA professor and author Adam Winkler. The movie aims to take a critical look at our current gun laws, Koenig explained, and how the concept of people rising up against the government in the U.S. may not be so farfetched.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen you look at what is happening with the IRS targeting certain groups, or the FBI looking into media phone records, you realize it doesn\u2019t take a lot to push a government into tyranny. I\u2019m not suggesting we are anywhere near that point now, but governments do break down,\u201d Koenig cautioned. \u201cLook at what happened after Hurricane Katrina, or the L.A riots. The government wasn\u2019t there to protect the people, and Koreatown was left as something of a battleground. We see small incidences like this where the government does fail us.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Fox article also quotes one of our favorite &#8220;historians&#8221; and gun prohibitionists Ladd Everitt.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i>\u201cOur chief concern with \u2018Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire\u2019 is its advocacy for \u2018Second Amendment remedies\u2019 \u2013 the perverted and treasonous idea that there is an individual right under the Second Amendment to threaten and\/or initiate violence against government officials when one senses \u2018tyranny,\u2019 said Ladd Everitt, director of communications for the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence. \u201cThe film glorifies those who have employed political violence in the past and makes fraudulent historical claims.\u201d<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>That should be enough to get most of us to go to the theater and I have not been in a movie theater since the year 2000!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FDziWcKQxr8\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Second Amendment documentary Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire has its theatrical debut on June 20th.
