hey just a heads up/warning for those of you who don’t do well dealing with the heavy subjects or videos portraying violent acts, sandyhook promise has a new gun violence school shooting PSA that is probably going to be going viral and is slated to play on television and in AMC movie theaters and it’s pretty heavy, especially at the end. I know it’s a topic that needs to be discussed but it’s not a video that everyone will be able to watch, so just a warning for those of you that might not be able to handle it.
For when you’re stuck watching like in a theater- When it begins to play, you will see kids talking about their binder or their other school supplies. When you see the boy with the skateboard, stop watching and plug your ears.
I think you should stop watching when you see this person saying “these colorful binders help me stay organized” because pretty much right after that there’s some panic inducing stuff. The entire ad is 67 seconds long.
It’s legit terrifying to watch. It hits you out of nowhere and I know that this is important for people to understand but I have anxiety and this just makes my fear of school shooters worse
It’s called “Back-To-School Essentials” on Youtube. Dark themes to watch out for plus timestamps:
- Lock Down Drill (background) - 0:06
- Panic - 0:12
- Screaming - 0:17
- Gunshots - 0:31
- Blood - 0:33
- 0:39 - 0:55 - a girl texts her mom “i love you” in a bathroom stall as she’s stalked by an intruder
Boosting this because I saw it came up on insta and without knowing what it was i played it and ended up having a break down over its ending. It’s an extremely important topic but also…. extremely hard to watch……..
It’s going around Tumblr now too, just so you’re all prepared
I watched it when it first started going around and it made me incredibly anxious. Heads up to anybody who needs a heads up.
The first time I watched it I legit felt a panic attack start. If I wasnt on the call with someone to help me before it got into a full blown thing, it would of been much worse for me- please dont watch this unless you can stomach it
DO NOT SCROLL!!
Please reblog this, it is very serious!
I just watched.
DON’T WATCH IT IF YOU’RE EXTREMELY SENSITIVE!!!
I’ve seen I at random 7 times as an ad and burst out crying every time
