Gun Porn: what the media thinks it is
Some real pants-shitting hysterics:
The next time you are in a grocery or convenience store, check out the magazine aisle. As CBS46 investigative reporter Karyn Greer found out, gun porn appears to be more popular than travel and cooking magazines and in plain sight of impressionable children.
Sexually explicit and tabloid magazines are kept on the top shelves of stores to keep them out of sight of precious young children, but gun magazines are in plain sight and easy reach for anyone to grab and take a peek.
“It just proliferates the spread of guns and glamourizes guns and everything that goes along with it,” said Glenn Sutton.
Gun porn is described as photos of guns that display them in the same carefully posed and lighted manner as the models in traditional pornography. The magazines include glossy covers with sexy young women armed and ready to shoot.
The SJW bringing this up and the reporter treating it as though it’s actually a serious position should be tarred and feathered. But that’s just me. Hell, I’ve been posting “gun porn” several times per week for about 13 years. I think I may have even invented the term. It’s just pictures of guns, idiots.
ETA: A quick count shows just shy of 2,000 posts containing the words gun and porn.

More casual prohibitionist intolerance. I am a loud and proud ammosexual and they need to accept me for who I am!

I’ll bet there are more magazines promoting gluten-riddled food recipes in the magazine aisles than gun magazines.
To me, it seems like most everything we read or watch these days is either a political hoax initiated by profiteers or ideologues, or just flat out anti-America/anti-liberties whining and lies.

Of course, they’ve got it all in the movies and on TV, but that First Amendment violation would never be suggested, nor should it be. ALL of the Bill of Rights for ALL of us. This is the hypocrisy of so- called “liberals”.They’re very selective and rigid about the freedoms they support because they are bigoted, reactionary authoritarians.

It would be nice to see some model airplane magazines on the newsstand.

Glenn Sutton, quoted in the article, is not further identified. There is a Glen Sutton associated with Georgia Public Broadcasting and Georgia State University TV. Great source for an anti-gun quote on an article – your fellow reporter.
The pro-rights quote is apparently from an African American Atlantan, Genarlo Lawhorn, who works with Young Life, a religious ministry.
Pointing out that a media director is anti-First Amendment and anti-Second Amendment, while a black religious leader is pro-rights, would be a bigger story than the one presented, but would not fit the narrative.

Well, to be fair, the other magazines should probably be referred to as “food porn”, “travel porn”, “fashion porn”, “home decorating porn”, “history porn”, and “celebrity porn”, although the old “Tiajuana bibles” gave a different meaning to the term.
What does it say about contemporary culture that everything is referred to in terms of porn and addiction? (Western culture, addicted to oil)
