What the National Rifle Association TV commercial - Tell Bloomberg is about.
The National Rifle Association (NRA) TV spot titled 'Tell Bloomberg' was released in 2013 with the aim of urging Americans to stand up against then-New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg's anti-gun policies. The ad opens with ominous music and a narrator warning that Bloomberg is spending millions of dollars to push his anti-gun agenda across America.
The focus then shifts to ordinary Americans who are shown expressing their frustration with Bloomberg's efforts to restrict gun ownership. One man says that it's not guns that are the problem, but criminals who use them. Another man says that Bloomberg doesn't understand the needs of people who live in rural areas and rely on firearms for hunting, sport, and self-defense.
The ad ends with the narrator asking viewers to contact Bloomberg and tell him to respect the Second Amendment right to bear arms. The visuals then shift to a screen with Bloomberg's phone number and a message urging viewers to call him and share their opinion.
The 'Tell Bloomberg' TV spot generated a great deal of controversy when it was released, with some arguing that it was a thinly veiled attack on Bloomberg's Jewish heritage. Bloomberg, who is Jewish, is shown in the ad wearing a yarmulke and standing in front of a menorah.
The NRA, however, denied that the ad was intended to be anti-Semitic. In a statement, the group said that the use of the menorah was meant to symbolize Bloomberg's status as a powerful public figure, not his religion.
Regardless of the controversy surrounding the ad, it remains emblematic of the NRA's ongoing battle to protect and promote the Second Amendment right to bear arms.
