Watch them . . .Slam doors, call cops when confronted by hidden camera<\/h2>\n

by<\/em> Bob Unruh<\/a><\/p>\n

An undercover video investigation by Project Veritas,<\/a> whose founder James O\u2019Keefe is widely known for his devastating expos\u00e9 of ACORN, found that journalists with the paper that recently exposed gun-permit holders in the New York City area are unwilling to take a dose of their own medicine and declare their homes \u201cgun-free zones.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
Project Veritas investigators posed as members of a gun-control group asking to post anti-gun signs on lawns. The journalists included staffers of the West Nyack, N.Y.-based Journal News, which last month published the names and addresses of thousands of pistol permit holders licensed in the Westchester and Rockland counties area north of New York City.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Four times doors were closed in the faces of the Project Veritas investigators, three times the signs were rejected, twice law enforcement was called to remove them from the property and three times they found armed guards already on site.<\/p>\n

Stops by the team included the homes of Newark Star Ledger columnist Bob Braun, Journal News publisher Janet Hasson, reporter Alex Weisler, Journal News editor Cynthia Lambert and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Keefe\u2019s crew asked journalists whether they would put a sign on their lawn that says \u201cCitizens Against Senseless Violence. THIS HOME IS PROUDLY GUN FREE!\u201d<\/p>\n

Uniformly they were denied permission.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Keefe, who also previously released a video of a Democrat campaign operative plotting vote fraud, <\/a> explained he wanted to see how top gun control advocates \u201cfelt when placed in the same position as our nation\u2019s children \u2013 within a Gun Free Zone.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cOur nation\u2019s children spend the majority of their week within schools that are starkly emblazoned with signs that read \u2018Gun Free Zone.\u2019 Project Veritas put that same concept to the test with some of America\u2019s most fervent advocates for gun control,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said his team went door-to-door in New York, New Jersey and Washington to see which outspoken champions for gun control would be willing to declare their own home as a \u201cgun free Zone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s amazing to see members of our media equivocate and contradict their spoken and written words when faced with the dilemma to declare their own homes as gun free,\u201d O\u2019Keefe said. \u201cSurprisingly, we found that the homes of the very New York paper that was willing to put the lives and fortunes of gun owners at risk by publishing their names and addresses, were also the most heavily armed and protected.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe hypocrisy of New York\u2019s Journal News is beyond words.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

O’KEEFE VISITS THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES – ERIC HOLDER’S HOUSE<\/strong><\/p>\n

O\u2019Keefe said of the visit to Holder\u2019s home: \u201cFBI police confronted our reporters within minutes of their knocking on the attorney general\u2019s home. Eric Holder is safe and sound under armed protection, unlike the nation\u2019s children.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Among the responses they got included Braun\u2019s comment: \u201cI agree with you and I am on your side on this, but I\u2019m just wondering if that\u2019s not an invitation to somebody with a gun.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the home of Journal News publisher Janet Hasson, the team was told, \u201cWe can\u2019t put it up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Several times the team members were told by armed security guards the property was private and they should leave.<\/p>\n

Residents at one home that was approached explained their address had been listed wrongly as the residence of a newspaper worker.<\/p>\n

Asking whether the team was anti-gun, the homeowner said, \u201cI\u2019m not,\u201d while displayed a handgun in his waistband.<\/p>\n

\u201cDoes that answer your question?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Keefe said his probe already has gone viral because someone took a picture of a sign that was left on one lawn.<\/p>\n

Just before the November election, a Project Veritas video sting<\/a> first reported by WND<\/a> prompted the resignation of Patrick Moran<\/a>, the son of Rep. Jim Moran, D-Va., and a criminal investigation by the Arlington County Police Department<\/a> in Northern Virginia, near Washington, D.C., and the state attorney general.<\/p>\n

He continued that God wasn't important, wasn't real, and our parents just used God to impose restrictions on us because they were inadequate to parent effectively. I knew then I was going to be involved in a war and that I would have to be in Jesus Christ's Army. Even then, I knew the United States of America would cease to exist without the vast majority of its citizens voluntarily submitting to the Perfect and Good Laws of the Holy Bible. I am a woman who loves the Lord Jesus Christ. I am tired of seeing our LORD denigrated from the school house to the White House.
