A small, loosely anized group of a few dozen chapters sttered across the stat and Canada, cludg Toronto, San Francis and Charlton, South Carola, the Pk Pistols’ membership has climbed om around 1, 500 earlier this month to about 6, 500 sce the June day Omar Mateen attacked the Pulse nightclub, turng the dance floor to a killg field and crashg together two culture war battlegrounds that rarely nverge: gays and guns.

PK PISTOLS: LGBT GUN OWNERS UNE ARMG GAY COMMUNY

The Pk Pistols formed around 2000, after gay journalist Jonathan Rch – still outraged by Matthew Shepard’s 1998 murr, and knowg gay men who stopped attacks wh guns – published an article on Salon. “[Gays] should set up Pk Pistols task forc, sponsor shootg urs and help homosexuals get licensed to rry, ” he wrote, notg that they should do a way to garner as much publicy as possible.

“Pk pistols, ” he wrote, “would do far more for the self-teem of the next generatn of gay men and women than any number of hate-crime laws or anti-discrimatn statut. Rch went on: “If beme wily known that homosexuals rry guns and know how to e them, not many bullets would need to be fired.

In fact, not all that many gay people would need to rry guns, as long as gay-bashers uldn’t tell which on did. ” Jt knowg that a gay person uld have a gun would ter a potential attacker.

Acrdg to the Human Rights Center (HRC), a US LGBTI advocy group, 52 gay people were murred the US last year bee of their sexualy, and 28 transgenr people met the same fate.

It’s brought them to lock step wh pro-gun groups that haven’t, historilly, been all that welg of gay people.
