Not directly, no, but the union between "People who are obssessed with guns to the extent they create twitter accounts and websites called Save The Guns" and "Science-hating right-wing Christian fundamentalist rednecks" seems to be about 99%, so it's a reasonable assumption to make.
Does this kind of sentiment really belong in a thread about Stephen Hawking's illness?
Besides which, you're way off-base. Most of the guys at the range where I shoot are suburban dads. Many of them are irreligious (if not outright atheist/agnostic), most of the rest are religious in only the vaguest sense of the word. There are a few people with a lot of Jesus bumper stickers, but they've never been anything but polite to me.
You are right that there's more than the usual support for the Republicans, but that's to be expected. Why would gun owners favor the party that favors gun control?
Please read what I wrote: "People who are obssessed with guns to the extent they create twitter accounts and websites called Save The Guns". Not just anyone who happens to support gun rights, which I also do, as it happens.
I agree it is not really appropriate, let's leave it there.
