June 30, 2002 -- WITH its world-famous parade going down Fifth Avenue at 2 o'clock, June's Gay Pride celebrations climax this afternoon. A group called Pink Pistols is among the worthiest organizations marking this month's national festivities. With 2,350 members and 30 chapters in 22 states, Pink Pistols encourages gays to use firearms for fun and self-preservation.

Let me be the first to say that I am worried about a bunch of homosexuals getting guns. What are these pervert's real agenda? Don't blame me when they start forcing our young people to become perverts like them.

I rather think that the climax of a Gay parade is nowhere I ever want to be.

This is your third thread about gays.

I'd say you're a bit obsessed.

Same as yours.  Or are gun rights tied to sexuality?

I'm not.

Nobody's forcing anybody to do anything, especially at gunpoint. Are you certain you're not gay yourself?

Pink Pistols chapters hold monthly meetings and frequent competitions at shooting ranges, to promote marksmanship and camaraderie.

I only thing I get out of this is that I hope the days they are shooting at the local range or gun club they put up a pink triangle or something so us normal guys can come back another day.

If I'm in the middle of a robbery, I'd much rather be defended by an armed homosexual than a gun-grabbing, simpering straight. As Harry Calahan said, "If the rest of department could shoot like those guys, I wouldn't care if the whole damned place was queer." (Or something to that effect).

So we accidently agree with them on something. Don't freak out. It won't make you gay! ;~D

Ademaj complains that Gotham's costly, Byzantine gun controls frustrate law-abiding citizens who seek firearms for personal protection.

I don't care who Ademaj is banging in the privacy of his own home. If he's a friend of the 2nd amendment, he's a friend of mine.

Welcome to the fight, Ademaj. We've got a long way to go.

(And stop looking at me like that.)

Please keep your sexual fantasies to yourself, nobody here is interested. I hope.

Today was freakshow day in alot of the country.Those of us who witnessed it first hand are a bit P.O'ed.

To protect themselves, their families, their friends, their businesses, from crime and violence.

Good on them, bad on you.

Lighten up, they probably won't hit on you.

I used to bowl with my wifes office team. They were known as "the disgruntled postal workers". The league after ours was "The Kings and Queens", an all gay league. What a hoot.

They were no different than any other league, aside from the drag queens, who constantly bitched about rental shoes. The gays always seemed to be having a much better time than the lesbians. hmmmm

"Don't blame me when they start forcing our young people to become perverts like them."

Well, I wouldn't worry. You know how these people are. Anything resembling a phallic shape (such as a gun barrel) eventually winds up holstered in a place where it ought not be. Its only a matter of time before the shit hits the fan....

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

In other words, when it comes to gays arming themselves, you wouldn't mind a gun ban for that segment of society. As you formulate your answer, please keep in mind that at least 150 million people were killed by their own governments during the 20th Century.

Thanks a lot, you just made me spit up my gin and tonic!

[Torie]

This is the first post I have ever read on FR (other than my wishy washy let's think this through ones) that is remotely pro gun control. LOL. :)

Some of us didn't go looking for gay parades.
