I got a message from Arizona Gunrunners that made me VERY angry (not at them, read on)....here's the gist of the message:
Oct 05, 2003

===========================================
I am sending you this E-mail to inform you of some changes at
Arizona Gun Runners. I am sure you have been wondering why we
have added a second Web Site.
Due to some Anti Gun, Anti Law Enforcement, Anti Military
restrictions at the two largest search engines we were forced to
build the second web site which previews only Firearms, Automatic
Weapons and High capacity magazines. It is now policy of the two
largest unnamed search engines that you cannot have these items
on your site and use their services. :bs: We have tried to explain to
them that we sell only to the Agencies and their Personnel that
keep them safe and allow them to have their companies and to
continue to do their jobs!!!!!!!
===========================================

While trying to look up the hours that Guns Galore is open....I was directed to this URL:

http://home.att.net/~guns.galore/sub3.htm
which told me CONTENT BLOCKED.

Has anyone else heard about this? Any idea how we can find out who both of these companies are? I really want to give them a piece of my mind and make sure that I'm not giving them any of my money. :evil: :evil: :evil:

GOOGLE has hit the gun culture hard lately with their anti gun business policy. They will not allow gun businesses to promote on the paid advertising part of their service. This has been going on for over 18 months but has just lately hit the intenet gun community.
