They are just running usenet feeds. I suspect you can probably get all the usenet porn feeds off google too. Are you saying they therefore support child porn if they run one?? Would you rather them go through and selectively edit which usenet feeds run and which don't?? I think that sets a very dangerous precedent. “their own gun related content”

I use google groups for all the Usenet newsgroups that I read, including rec.guns which I read daily. I just wanted to point out google's double standards. They are happy to make advertisement dollars off their own gun related content, but not the content of others. I am not suggesting that google stops the rec.guns google group.

Complaining to them may just cause them to delete the group from their archives. Well, rec.guns is part of Usenet and Google just copies all the postings.
