That smartgunlaws is appearing high on your searches most likely means they are paying to be in the top spots.
Use the same search words in a different search engine and I bet you won't see them. Try the DuckDuckGo web site to see how the search results are different.
If my search is more mundane, like searching for pizza, then I switch to Google.
Also use Firefox and not IE.

Re: Hmmm. Google and "Smartgunlaws.org"
When I search "gun laws" in google, I get the NRA ILA along with the result you mention. I believe that Google as a company does lean on the left side of the gun debate, but I also think I'm able to find pro-gun sites and articles using them as a search engine.
As far as them manipulating the order in which results are returned, I think that would constitute "fake search results!"
