Stonewall Shooting Sports of Utah is a group of weapons advocates and owners in Utah. It supports the Pink Pistols idea that was described nationally in 2000 by writer Jonathan Rauch for the legal, responsible and safe use of weapons for their self defense, recreation and weapon-sports competition. Hundreds of supporters including those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and trangender (LGBT) have joined the group since 2002 when it was founded by Utah gay activist David Nelson.[1][2]

Politics

The group is nonpartisan, but recognizes that most LGBT Americans identify as Democrats. The group promotes the Second Amendment Foundation and more than 50 other self-defense groups including African American Hunting Association LLC, Amendment II Democrats, American Gun Culture Report, Armed Liberals, Gun Loving Liberal, The Gun Toting Liberal, Gun Toting Liberals, GunTards.net, The Liberal Gun Club, Liberals With Guns, Oregon Democratic Gun Owners Caucus, Pro-Gun Progressive and Women Against Gun Control.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]

Government

Members of the group are encouraged to campaign for candidates and lobby for public policies which support their interest in the Second Amendment to the Constitution for the United States and the protection of equal rights for gay Americans, and against the fear of weapons. They worked successfully for state legislation which protects the right of students to possess legally concealed firearms on public college campuses, to eliminate gun-free policies at Salt Lake City- and Salt Lake County-government public property, and continue to work against hate crime.[19][20][21][22][23][24][25]
