‘Gays Against Guns’ Launches NYC Ad Campaign Against NRA-Backed Concealed Weapons Law
Gays Against Guns, an LGBTQ group dedicated to stricter firearm regulations, has launched its first major advertising campaign—an effort that will combine with protests around New York City against National Rifle Association-endorsed legislation in Washington that would mandate “reciprocity” in concealed weapon permits nationwide.

The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 and its counterpart in the Senate would require any state that gives out permits for concealed weapons to recognize such permits issued by other states, even if they do not have the same eligibility and training prerequisites or restrictions on gun ownership. Gays Against Guns describes “reciprocity” as a “long-held goal of the gun lobby and its continuous effort to use fear to sell guns.”

OK, am I the only one to find humor in the acronym for their group? "GAG"? Really? And this is from the "creative" set?

LOL

I can't stand this crap. Most gays don't support this. I know a few gay people and they think these people are nuts.

 

[Catskillkid]

What's more they're doing an ad campaign in NYC? Where arguably most people are already anti-gun. Preaching to the choir/wasting money much?

I say the Pink Pistols need to do their own ad campaign. Show them gun rights don't give a darn about sexual orientation. Deep down, we're all ammosexuals anyway.

1) I wonder who is financing the group
2) after the attack in Miami I'm shocked they don't want to exercise their right to self defense.

Many do I suspect. But their voices get drowned out if they don't tow the progressive line.

What about Faggots Against Guns? (F.A.G) Or is that not politically correct enough? Sorry if I offended anyone.

This always gets me why would people from a group that has been the target of violence for decades be for gun control? I don't get it like, the Jewish people that support gun control, they have lost the lessons of WWII that were learned the hard way.

Anyone that supports gun control supports slavery and genocide.

 

[Phauxtoe]

Self Haters
They are way more likely to be at the shitty end of the stick !

Gays and jews != 1 group of people.

That's like saying that all gun owners are bible thumping cousin fuckers.

It's the complete division and towing of party lines that has people like this. As it is currently, the right "hates gays, loves guns" and the left "loves gays and hates guns."

Why not just have a third option? L.

All the jews I ever knew personally were leftist nuts.

 

[Phauxtoe]

We have a good number of Orthodox Jews in my club. They are not gun haters!!
(Lots or regular ones too)

It seems to be NYC JEWS that are gun haters (although the only other shooter at work was s NYC Jew!?)

 

[Deplorable Me]

So they launched an "ad" campaign? How did they raise the money or who is really funding it?

The families I know are extended families of concentration camp survivors. They make the NRA look liberal.

The nra is liberal.

 

[stuck in ny]

His rifle is compliant too. Good citizen of yorkistan.
Calling a Garand "compliant" seems like an insult insinuating John G. was a commie though.

 

[ProgSpear]

Nailed the look long before Moochelle.

 

[Darth]

I second this.

 

[RDN]

If the gays are against my guns then I'm against their gaynise
If those feminist groups want to ban my guns then I don't support them either.

Simple - You don't respect my rights - I won't respect yours

Not this Jew. But then, you don't know me personally.

The problem with identity politics is lumping people into groups. You can can't say you don't respect gay rights because of these douchbags without also failing to respect the rights of people like the pink pistols.

Judge people based on their individual characstics.
Only judge people as a group based on the defining characstics of the group.

 

[swilliams]

Not this Jew. But then, you don't know me personally.

Nope, not you at all, lol. Most of the Jews I know from NYC didn't seem to have any strong feelings one way or the other about guns. I've only met two Jewish people in NJ (this is an Italian, Asian, Indian neighborhood), but both of them seem to be more hard-core liberals than anyone Jewish I knew in the city. The crazies in the city - at least in my experience - were the white limousine liberals.

you better be careful; you might improve their reputation.

 

[Day444]

I find it at the least insulting. These gays scream and shout for their rights, yet want to take away the rights of others? Hooray for me, fuck you! Just doesn't cut it with me!

 

[RDN]

Gay groups need to stay in their box or lane. Also goes for feminist and their pro-abortion stance. I tolerate their agenda and rights. It should go both ways.
IMO- every Jew in the world should be pro-gun after what the Nazis did to them in the 30's - WWII

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

I feel bad for regular joe 6 pack gay guy who just wants to live his life and be left alone. That must be miserable. Its one of the most marginalized groups there is. The "gay community" only represents the very vocal activist minority claiming to be the entire group. It seems like if you don't toe their progressive line you get harrassed by the gay community agenda pushers

 

[holdover]

Oh sure, they can shoot their loads anytime they want

IT was either that or Fascists Against Guns ... they didn't want offend anyone
