For what though...what gay person is going to go there? This is like the literal opposite of a honeypot. It's not like they are trying to trick gay people into coming with 1 free beer

To attract the type of people who actively avoid gay people, they tend to also own quite a few guns

So the claim is that it's a honeypot to attract straight people who actively avoid gay people. This now places the presumption that it's gay people doing this to do something nefarious to straight people which I highly doubt.

I still think honeypot is the wrong term here.
