I just received this e-mail from our Utah Shooting Sports Council regarding gun sales through our largest local freebie online ads site...
Sunday's Deseret News has an article stating that KSL.com is considering
banning classified ads for guns. This change of policy appears to be
based on the usual lies from the anti-gunners that private sales of
firearms are a huge source of guns for criminals.
Whether or
not you use or even plan to use KSL.com to buy or sell guns they need to
hear from you as soon as possible. Let them know that you do not want
them to ban classified ads for firearms.
This is a much bigger
issue than losing an online option to buy and sell guns. The issue here
is the demonization of guns and gun owners, and that is part of the
anti-gun crowd's long standing goal to eliminate all private sales and
media advertising for guns, especially in any sort of classified ads.
If
KSL.com bans firearm classified ads they will be making a statement
that the lawful buying and selling of firearms is something dangerous
and dirty. That placing an ad to sell a gun is the equivalent to
placing an ad for prostitution or illegal drugs, things KSL currently
prohibits. A ban on firearms advertising will work nicely to advance
the anti-gun agenda to demonize the lawful ownership of firearms.
The
Deseret News and KSL.com are seeking input on this matter. Please go
to the following links and let them know what you think.

USSC
is disappointed that the Deseret News chose to interview two anti-gun
activists, balanced somewhat by interviews with two staunchly pro-gun
legislators, but failed to seek input from any gun rights groups in
Utah. While it was not as biased as some reporting has been in other
media outlets, it is disappointing that even the Deseret News has veered
to the left in their gun views.
I think the anti's are just pissed because our governor recently signed two pro-gun bills, and now they're trying for a little payback.

I responded to the survey and added my comments and opinions. Let's hope that the anti-gunners do not prevail on this one. If so, we all loose a valuable resource. (I have personally used this web site on several occasions to purchase DWs.) If not, the "bad guys" will move on to the next web site and conduct their alleged "illegal dealings".
