Really? That's news? Kinda reaching are we?
"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."
Oh, really. Since when is professional product photography "the same carefully posed and lighted manner as the models in traditional pornography"?
Is this an Onion piece? Is this a joke? Please tell me it's an early release of a 2016 April's Fool piece.
You go on to quote "It just proliferates the spread of guns and glamourizes guns and everything that goes along with it," as if that is a bad thing.
CBS, no wonder the general public keeps turning their back to you.

So, since cars are involved in more deaths than guns, are you going to go on a crusade against "Car & Driver"? What about all those other "Car porn" magazines?
Or do you only care if people are killed by a bullet?
You're all hypocrites. And ignorant to boot.
Gun magazines are simply showcasing well engineered machines.

Remember these are the folks that want cops to shoot first and citizens to attack gun owners.

Is it wrapped in plain brown paper? As the gun-worshipping porn that it is?

Just as we were getting into sexual stereotypes, a Maurice Chevalier refrain is heard!
