Anything that pushes back against the insane gun lobby is great. Let them build their own sites, the more insular and backward they appear the better.

Great for what? The US has the largest population of private gun owners, and it has a far bigger problem with hamburger-related deaths and car-related injuries than gun-related crime. This just seems like a political or CYA move for Google.

I'm a member of the insane gun lobby, and I'd be happy to take you shooting anytime you'd like. I think even if you are against the political stance of the American gun lobby or dislike firearms it's a good skill to be able to safely render a weapon into a harmless condition.
