Thanks for bringing this to my attention because photos of weapons can be deemed inappropriate by some; however, in this situation, there's nothing wrong with the photo.

In the US, guns are legal to own and is one of our basic rights. The right to bear arms gives us the right to protect ourselves from harm. This can be in the form of an individual threatening our life or if our government becomes oppressive. The original law was made because of our experience with England before we won our independence; however, the same concept applies today. It stands to reason that certain people will always seek more power, and the right to bear arms is a way to protect the rest of our rights.

With that said, if an image contains hate or illegal themes, the image will be removed (and possibly the authorities will be notified). This image doesn't have these themes, and is thus approved to be on the site.

According to TLF Content Guidelines this photo is appropriate. I am not sure why you would feel this way. Thanks for viewing!
