The real issue here is maturity, not politics.

Very much so.

When communicating with models, I only discuss shoot details, never politics, religion or other such issues.  Since political views are never discussed or known, it can't play a role in setting up shoots.

But you may have a Facebook account where you express support/opposition to a political issue. You may have posted in a political forum somewhere. A model doing reference checks might found those posts.

Note; there is no such thing as an "assault weapon", it's not a firearms term, it's a political term coined by those (for various reasons) who want to ultimately disarm Americans.

I beg your forgiveness, I should have said "assault riffle" such as an AK-47....Never thought "Swiss army knife"

Models, do you ever consider the politics of the photographer when deciding whether to work with them?

I thought professionals (loose term) would put politics to the side on dealing with a photo shoot. But one model mentioned she would never work with anyone supporting ______. I happened to agree with her political view, but not her professional one.

I don't care one but about the politics, religion, gender identity etc. of the average photographer.  I don't really even want to know.  That stuff belongs among friends or on Facebook, not on Model Mayhem.

I won't shoot content that I find offensive or don't want my image associated with, political or not.  Gender cruelty, animal abuse, Nazism... No thanks. As I don't find politics to be particularly creative or interesting in a creative medium, I try to steer clear of it.  That being said, I have no problem making strong statements in a creative format, but prefer to reserve that kind of subject matter for shoots with photographers that I know and trust.  I've shot some pretty incredible stuff that's hit on some very emotional topics, but that's not somewhere I can go with just any photographer.
