I start off by asking why there is no federal, state, or local law banning guns that are "resistant to fingerprints" and why gun control advocates are not lobbying for such a law. I ask why gun control advocates complain about ads for guns that are "resistant to fingerprints" yet almost never show an actual copy of the ad. I show the FULL phrase from the ad (" provides excellent resistance to fingerprints, sweat rust, petroleum distillates of all types, gun solvents, gun cleaners, and all powder residues") and ask what all that other stuff is about. I show ads for gun coatings and oils that also promise "resistance to fingerprints" and ask why they are not trying to ban those products.

The bigots jumped all over it claiming it was about making it difficult for the police to lift fingerprints rather than a corrosion resistance feature. The ad was quickly pulled.
