Google wouldn't give you one straight answer on the selling of firearms. I guess I won't be loading up that google toolbar after all. Here's some keywords just for google, "sniper rifle" "tactical rifle" "assault rifle." Google Adwords team, go jump in a lake.

Stay tuned. I am in the middle of another "go around" with them.

Their policy is available online at:

and

https://www.google.com/adsense/policies

What amuses me is, in this later link,

----

Site may not include:

Violence, racial intolerance, or advocate against any individual, group, or organization

[snip]

----

So does that mean they won't tolerate people that advocate against the NRA?

Things could be rather amusing around here soon. Assuming, that is, they don't see this post and comments and play their hand carefully.
