Stop Google Selling Guns

Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.

Google should stop selling and accepting ads from companies that sell guns and other weapons.

Why is this important?

Google actively promotes companies that advertise and sell military style weapons and paraphernalia. Google Shopping lists companies that sell guns directly over the internet; Youtube hosts thousands of videos that celebrate, advertise, and instruct people on the use of these products.

Most people working at Google have strong principles and try to do the right thing. It's time for management to demonstrate a level of social responsibility consistent with the company's influence and market power.

Google's leadership team doesn't have to take a public position on the first and second amendments; it just needs to take a position on its corporate values. If you say "Don't be Evil", then explain and demonstrate what you mean.

From Google's "Code of Conduct"

“Don’t be evil.” Googlers generally apply those words to how we serve our users. But “Don’t be evil” is much more than that ... it’s also about doing the right thing... acting honorably...
