Nice
... ignorant dangerous hicks... are always an inconvenient problem, shouldering its annoyance to the detriment of the carefree clicking of champagne glasses in ivory towers. Those unsavory barbarians are at the gate again. What pray tell is an overlord to do?
Where is the talking point coming from:
NPR article about a survey....Harvard and Northeastern University
I don’t regard myself as unsavory, and the term `barbarian’ is owned by Muslims. Maybe both apply to the beards & burkas crowd.
Guess I’ll have to settle for `impertinent upstart’ in the eyes of our ruling elites. But caution, Mesdames et Messieurs, these days the peasants can own weapons without fear of beheading.
And in the case of Mohammedans referenced above, weapons owned by `infidels’ can actually prevent beheadings.
;^)
3% own 50% of firearms... VERY MISLEADING TALKING POINT....
Better stat would be what percentage or number of the US population owns a firearm...I think the reporting is low because of the gungrabber in chief in the Whitehut from 2008-2016.
1 in 3 Americans owns a gun
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/one-three-americans-own-guns-culture-factor-study-finds-n384031
Gallop estimates % of households with firearm: 39%, Range: 36% to 42% lower than previous years...but again gungrabber at 1600 PA Ave.
66% of gunowners own more than one.

B-but what about diversity ?
>>Youre a bad parent if you do not teach your kids gun safety, proper gun handling and instill respect for our rights and our Constitution. Smoke that, liberal morons.<<
Perfectly stated and perfectly true.
My husband tried to teach me to drive a car with a stick shift. He called me stupid when I couldn't do it, and that was in Germany. When he was transferred back to the states we bought a brand new 1966 Chevrolet Impala convertible with automatic transmission, and when he went to Vietnam on his first tour in 1967 I hired a driving teacher that taught me to drive.
Actually it’s widely acknowledged that the vast majority of troubled and anti-social youth in this country are the children of liberal Democrats and the welfare culture they created.
>>I automatically stop listening when I hear the words, “a Harvard study says...”<<
Funny. A Harvard study can be produced to “say” virtually ANYTHING. No credibility whatsoever.
Guns bad. Gays good.
Liberalism is a mental disease.
None of my friends or family!
I agree that you are a bad parent if you own ‘a’ gun. If you have forty, good parent. I am a good parent, plus I load ammo for my kids and grandkids.
This is part of the “long game” of the left...
1) Take over the education system, and teach an alternate version of American history.
2) Use media and entertainment to change and coarsen popular culture to something hostile to traditional values.
3) Import as many people as possible from 3rd world hell-holes, and/or countries with a long history of governmental corruption. Especially those devoid of rights protected by a Constitution.

Yet they never bother to help the situation by offering to off themselves. They only suggest other do it.

I seem to recall reading that about 50% of all homes have one or more guns in them.
It wouldn't surprise me if the number used is completely made up. It is after all, being promoted by the National Bull$#1t Corporation.

Idiot!
!20 million gun owners. ( legal) 3% ? Must be new math.
Ludicrous is a lifestyle choice.
