Announcing The Pink Pistols
A new group has formed in Boston, MA named, “The Pink Pistols”. In less than a month of starting the formation process, a new chapter arose in Baltimore, MD. The Pink Pistols is targeted at protecting the firearm rights of the “alternative sexuality” communities. Instead of protecting just the rights of the traditional Gay and Lesbians, they also are inclusive to the Bisexual, Transgender, BDSM, and the Polyamarous communities.
Each chapter meets at least once a month to go shooting at a local gun range to practice their skills. Details regarding the times and locations of the shoots can be found on the Pink Pistols website, http://www.pinkpistols.org.
The Pink Pistols also rates candidates for public office. A list of the questions asked of each candidate can also be found on the web site. Unlike most PACs (Political Action Committees), the candidate’s answers are also made available to the public.
“I’m excited by the amount of interest already expressed the Pink Pistols”, said founder Douglas Krick. “I’ve already received interest in our group from places as far away as Minnesota. At this rate, I expect that we will grow and become a truly national organization in a relatively short time.”
The organization has drawn their name from
Jonathan Rauch of the Independent Gay Forum, and Salon Magazine.
The name was deliberately chosen because it draws on existing public imagery.
