PSA of the Week

Like our recent (http://www.augustarx.com/news/?p=3245) PSA about texting and driving (see more below), this one is sequential. Multiple images add up to drive the final point home in a very powerful way. Shootings are certainly no rarity in news reports of any city. As a result, a shooting is kind of a yawner, news-wise. It takes something spectacular to get our attention… someone we know, multiple victims, or a shooting in an upscale neighborhood or in broad daylight. Watch this, and a bullet hitting flesh and bone may not seem quite so ho-hum from now on.

You may remember a PSA of the Week in July (at the following link: http://www.augustarx.com/news/?p=3161) containing two anti-texting and driving PSAs, one 30 seconds long, the other 8 minutes long. What follows is an even longer version (35 minutes) of the original documentary from which both previous PSAs were taken. It’s part of the national It Can Wait campaign. I would urge every person who is reading these words to take the time to watch it. It could save a life. It could save many lives.
