The Pink Pistols are a non-partisan organization that promotes the right to bear arms for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual, or polyamorous persons. They believe that sexuality-related hate crimes would be reduced if more members of the gay community carried weapons. Members meet at firing ranges monthly and attend political rallies.
