“My Trace colleague Jennifer Mascia pulled some numbers from the Small Arms Survey, which gauges gun stockpiles in the hands of civilians, law enforcement, and militaries around the world,” The Trace’s email blaster writes. “She found that with an estimated 270 million firearms owned by everyday Americans, civilians own 70 times more weapons than all police and military services combined.” Boldly played sir!

Yup. Gangbangers don’t obey “gun free” zones, either.

It would take criminals in the United States and Canada many hundreds of centuries to kill the number of disarmed civilians that Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot killed in just only one.

Keeping the f@@@ing ruling elites scared is one of the PRIMARY reasons American citizens keep and bear firearms. It’s good the basturds are afraid — excellent!

One thing positive Barry did was to arm America. I owned a grand total of 4 firearms in 2008 and enough ammunition to go hunting for one season. When I die my children and grandchildren (total of 12) will all inherit multiple weapons and enough ammo for the zombie apocalypse. I only hope Barry realizes how he motivated millions just like me.

Per a recent article , the actual number is more likely between 412-660 million.

“”What Scares Elitists? Civilians Own 70 Times More Guns Than U.S. Police and Military Combined”

The elites are terrified of getting dragged into the streets and shot in the head or hanged from lampposts. Then buried in mass graves. I saw it happen to the elites in Libya when I did contract work for an Israeli company back in 2011. That scared the elitists chitless, especially Hillary.
