Why don't they want to put up the sign? They should be proud and announce it to the world that the house is gun free. Nothing bad could happen from that

I met Hannah Guiles, the "prostitute" from his original video when they went around to ACORN asking for money. She's super, super Christian and married already. Lol

I think James O'Keefe is a genius -- and not only because he shares a political view similar to mine.
It's that his approach to a traditional genre -- expose (ex-pose-a) journalism -- is disruptive in that it turns the tables. It shows that organizations, individuals, etc. who profess values that are, when applied correctly, strong values ("finding truth" in the case of journalism or "helping the downtrodden" in the case of ACORN) are in fact both hypocritical AND corrupt.
Of course, the ripe territory for this approach is a certain strain of leftist thinking and action. These issues are not the exclusive province of the left, but since traditional journalism has ignored them for so long, O'Keefe has a landscape replete with opportunities. Expect more, lots more.
