Nine consecutive years of year over year record gun sales....and the percentage of gun owning households is at its lowest point in 40 years?

That certainly sounds reasonable, now doesn't it?

Actually, it could be credible. (I doubt it, but it could.)

Think of it like this: Imagine there are 100 households in the US and 50 of them have guns. Now imagine that 10 more of them buy guns this year and at the same time you import 100 impoverished refugees. That means you started with 50% gun ownership, had more households buy guns, but ended with 30% gun ownership.

So long as I and all my conservative friends are well armed, I don’t care what the percentages are. In fact, the fewer liberal kooks who own weapons, the better.

Yes. It IS reasonable when you understand that I, alone, purchase 92 million guns each day.

Well, myself and my investment partner Terry McAuliffe.

Also that spin lie works against the leftists’ aims. If the goal is to get the legislatures to ban guns (but control groups and the media are posting lying statistics about lowering rates of gun ownership), a politician is naturally going to conclude, “why take a anti gun position now when doing so may risk my neck in my district, especially since polls are showing the problem is going away anyway?”
