The Long Island Incident
1998 · Film · 96 min
Directed by Joseph Sargent
On December 7, 1993, a gunman opened fire in a crowded commuter train on Long Island. This fact-based story focuses on the events that swell around Carolyn McCarthy, a woman whose husband is killed and her 26 year old son is severely wounded in the massacre. The result is she is forced out of her comfortable suburban existence and she becomes an out-spoken crusader against assault weapons. The film shifts from her perspective to the mind of the killer and finally to the media frenzy that surrounds both.

I guarantee I never would have heard about this video (which sounds hilarious) if not for this news story.
Pretty sure the NRA knows who Barbara Streisand is. There were all upset about her movie, The Long Island Incident. Maybe they are not as familiar with her Effect.
