We are #LIVE outside the National Rifle Association of America's headquarters for a demonstration organised by the Women's March. The BBC's Hetal Gandhi is speaking to NRA supporters and activists from the Women's March about the recent verdict in #PhilandoCastile's death and a controversial NRA commercial - that sparked this event.

The "Laura" person they keep interviewing (a "gun owner for gun control") sounds like she just got her 'token' (first and only) gun several months ago...

Laura claims she was on her college's rifle team, and that NRA membership was required for team members... thus, that she was (technically) a 'former NRA member'.

I don't want to doxx her (which is why this isn't on GD, lol), but I'm wondering whether that can be fact-checked and responded to.

I will also say that this Paul guy is a great spokesperson for our side.

Funny thing, but I don't see them protesting outside the local crack houses, do you?

Yeah, as hokey as I feel like the slogan comes across, I think they might realize that 'right across from NRA HQ' is truly "Freedom's Safest Place."

Paul is a really good friend of mine.

NRA TV invited him on yesterday. Want me to ask him anything?

Sorry, man... only get on here rarely nowadays so just now seeing this.

Nothing specific, just really liked how professional it all was.

Including the referral from the guy they initially approached.

If Paul's had some kind of training in this... it shows.

If he hasn't... then he should maybe consider doing this sort of thing.

I have a friend who does this (not for guns, but for a different issue).

Not full time, but during the summer mostly she'll get invited out to here or there to 'train the trainer' about how to interact with, engage with, and speak to the media so you put your issue's best face forward.
