Free Screening of Making a Killing: Guns, Greed and the NRA, Sept. 12

Union County, NJ — The Union County Board of Chosen Freeholders reminds residents that a free screening of the 2016 documentary film Making a Killing: Guns, Greed and the NRA will be held on Wednesday, September 12, at 7:00 p.m. at the STEM Building auditorium at Kean University, 1075 Morris Avenue in Union Township, in partnership with the non-profit organization Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in New Jersey.

Bill Castner, the Senior Advisor on Firearms for New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, will speak at the event.

“Mr. Castner lends his considerable experience in legal and legislative matters to the screening of Making a Killing: Guns, Greed and the NRA,” said Freeholder Chairman Sergio Granados. “We hope that the film will inspire and inform next steps for action on common sense legislation aimed at reducing gun violence.”

The event is free but pre-registration is requested online through the Union County website, at ucnj.org/making-a-killing-movie-screening. A discussion period will follow the screening.

Making a Killing tells the story of how guns affect the lives of everyday Americans, and highlights the influence of gun manufacturers on state and national policy. To view a trailer for the film, follow the registration link or visit bravenewfilms.org/making_a_killing_guns.
