Pick on someone your own caliber.

Pink Pistols, a firearms group for the usual GLBT crowd, plus polyfolk.

This would be a fun thing to get involved in, I think. I so want to do shooting again, and [livejournal.com profile] kshandra has expressed an interest in shooting.

There is a San Jose chapter, although their homepage isn't much more than a contact address at this point. I think I shall look into this further.

<Notice WinAmp again hits the 10 ring.)

Pink Pistols don't exclude

Some of the folks from the Boston Chapter are on a mailing list I'm on.
They claim to have a very diverse (gay/les/bi/poly/straight) membership.

They view it as a civil rights issue. Here in Massachusetts, a CLEO can deny anybody a CCW permit for any reason, including sexual preference.

Darklady is involved with the portland chapter. She got flamed off a local Bisexual forum for promoting "that gun rights crap". I left the same list soon after because I got tired of the gatherings announcing things like "bring your own bovine lactation" and "animal slaughter free zone"

BOVINE LACTATION????

WTF is wrong with the word milk? Cows give milk, you give milk, female mammals give milk!

I would have worn leather to a meeting and said "I didn't slaughter it here, did I?"

Isn't it sad how some people think who you're attracted to defines your politics on issues that have nothing to do with sex?

Please let me know which local forum that is so I can avoid it like the plague!

All I can think of is Patrick Stewart in a tight t-shirt and pink beret parading as "The Pink Pathers" from the movie _Jeffrey_
