The Mike V. reference isn’t registering with me. Sorry.

Before I hit send, I sat here and thought about it.

I know as soon as I hit it, it’ll make sense.

I thought he was talking about the caliber of people who own guns.

No records no problem. Do it yourself with ksa, not another govment department, it’s knowledge skills and ability a privately owned attribute. Dangerous for the possessors too in the wrong regime. Stay free my friend.

CITIZENS own them!

Although 100% of LEOs SHOULD be citizens, I suppose that can no longer be taken for granted... That will change! Some other things that will change: illegal illiterate Mexican women can no longer drop "citizens" while "visiting," and "tourists and students" who overstay their visa for any reason whatsoever, forfeit re-entry to the United States for 10 years minimum. A permanent database of these "overstayers" shall be kept, including photo, fingerprints and DNA.

Preferential immigration treatment for Latin Americans shall cease. One monumental invasion by undesirables, inducing mass gross abuse can't be allowed to be repeated--- ever.

Reasonable people can no longer debate the damage already done.

Absolute and official documentation to qualify for the Presidency also shall be required in the future. Not only birth, but complete records of all education. Sealing of all records shall never again be allowed to occur.

No single group or individual shall ever suggest he/she/it has the power to define who we, as a Nation, are collectively.

Only "The People (citizens)" can do that.

400+ million would have been my guess.

If 3% of the population (~10 million people) own half the guns (200 million), that works out to a bunch of people averaging 20 each.

I’ve fallen behind.

1st rule of guns - Guns should only be accumulated and traded 1 for 1.

On the serious side, this is probably “meme construction” to inoculate politicians and the electorate with the idea that that 14% is a target that they don’t have to fear electorally come time to gin up some new dumb ass laws to screw them and for the pols to look like they’re “doing something”

Here's a pretty good list:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_handgun_and_rifle_cartridges

But I see several of my gun's cartridges aren't listed. No 357 Herrett, 22K Hornet, 9mm Largo, 6.5x47 Lapua, 41 rimfire

The MSM is owned by 0.0001 percent of the population and employees number political identification as democrat about 94 percent.

Maybe we can replace one liberal commentator for every firearm turned in with a conservative; maybe one super owner turns in a thousand weapons and gets ownership of one TV Station.
