Shawn Jones, 30, of Baldwin holds his AR-15 in an alley in Pittsburgh's South Side neighborhood on Tuesday evening, January 15, 2019. Jones was part of the pro-gun rally in Pittsburgh on Jan. 7 that was held in response to Pittsburgh City Council legislation calling to ban assault-style weapons and types of ammunition in the wake of the Oct. 27 mass shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue. "I believe its important for any human to have the ability to protect themselves," says Jones.
