That's right. As of 24 hours ago Google stopped displaying results for shopping related to "weapons", although you can apparently still shop for combat knives. I was a bit shocked to read this, and in fact I still had some google shopping tabs open in another window that I was using to find good prices on a rifle I'm interested in buying. So I went over to the window, clicked refresh, and it all disappeared, it's real.
First thing I did: remove google from all search features. I am now using a combination of Duckduckgo.com, Bing and Yahoo. Believe me, I understand how prolific Google is for the average user, its homepage pretty much is the internet for most of us. But Google has made it clear that it is more interested in siding with those who do not respect ALL of our amendment rights. I am making it clear that I will not conduct any business whatsoever with Google. I hope that all of my fellow INGO members will recognize the importance of this and do what they feel right to voice discontent, whether it be changing search engines, or writing to Google, an action of which I am still weighing the value. Thanks INGO.
***NOTE: This applies to Google Shopping, you will still be able to find vendors, but will not be able to go 'shopping' for firearms or ammunition while using the Google Shopping feature***
