yep......what do you call a gay democrat who saw the events of the Orlando shooting....
A gay democrat who now wants to own and carry a gun.....
Pink Pistols besieged with new members
Patton said gun owners she knows in the LGBT community would do what drivers do when going with friends to bars and nightclubs – have a designated non-drinker with the group who has the gun just as a designated driver doesn’t drink alcohol when joining friends at bars.
“Yes, we’ve had some really incredible response after the Orlando incident,” Patten said. “That was a horrific tragedy. It has torn the hearts out of us all. And a lot of people determined after that, that they didn’t want to be vulnerable anymore,” she said. “They wanted to take on the responsibility for their own safety.”
Patton said that within two weeks after the Orlando incident Pink Pistols’ Facebook membership jumped from 1,500 to over 7,500.
“We’ve also had a greater number of people asking for information on how to start a chapter in the past two weeks than we’ve had in the previous two years,” she said.
Even more astonishing, Patton said, has been an enormous outpouring of support from mainline gun advocacy groups and businesses.
