Is there an actual group pushing for that? (I'm pretty sure I remember a decade or so back there being an arm the homeless group, that put out santa's etc... though didn't actually accept donations. (Their actual goal was common sense gun laws, and they knew the people who are pro-gun would argue strongly against it shooting their own pro-gun arguements in the foot).

A Libertarian candidate for the US Senate back in 2018 proposed giving shotguns to homeless people for self-defence.
