Percent of households with guns, gun ownership, favorable view of guns for self defense. All have significantly increased.

Polls are irrelevant, liberal hatred of guns is irrelevant, reasonable gun control laws are irrelevant. The 2nd amendment is law.

Do any of the members of your household own a gun?

Nunya damned business.

Most politicians who oppose gun ownership will claim they would never inconvenience โ€œlegitimateโ€ gun owners. Politicians tend to be very good liars.

Very true.

Public acceptance of the utility of gun ownership is boosted, in part, because of increasing respect shown for the Second Amendment by the Supreme Court and inferior courts

It is also boosted by the ever-increasing squeals from politicians about taking them away from law-abiding citizens, and by things like the 2020 Burn Loot Murder riots and subsequent defunding of the police, and the corresponding appeasement of criminals.

Polls Reflect Acceptance of Second Amendment

Acceptance? Well, we just have to change their minds. This is about saving humanity from right-wing MAGA extremists.

Even a pro-2nd ammendment org can't get it's own headlines straight. Who writes this stuff.

What other parts of the US constitution can I opt to accept, or perhaps not accept. Apparently, we can ignore search and seizure and due process for MAGA extremist Trump supporters and can cull citizens based upon their Twitter likes.

Saw an article about the number of background checks submitted on Black Friday alone - over 200,000! I am inclined to think that the uptick may have more to do with the truth in the following well-known sayings:

- When seconds count the LEOs are only 8 minutes away.

- I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.

- others ...

Its hilarious. Leftists pushed defunding the police and bringing in prosecutors who would not prosecute crimes. They opened the border and allowed tends of millions of illegal aliens to pour in.

Then they were shocked Americans responded by buying guns in a tsunami that more than wiped out all the effort they’d put into gun control over the last generation.

Well Duh. What did they expect?

Thanks Dean. Weird. I don’t own uh, one. Just think how envious the anti 2nd folks are of Israeli gun laws. Just think how few less dead there would be from the 10/7 attack. Did they not get the memo about “Never again!”. Guess “ never” doesn’t mean what I thought it did.

The Liberals on Quora (especially one troll) must be very upset. The question starts with: 'What would gun nuts do if I...'

My son replies: 'How do you know what a gun owner looks like...'

There are polls that the DEMs flaunt in front of people for their policy changes. And the others they just ignore.

Oh thank God I don’t own any guns and don’t have to register any. I’ll just rely on all those good hearted citizens with them to protect me if needed.

Americans are being left without any tool for self-defense and the defense of their family and property. We can’t allow that to happen. Now that most law enforcement agency have fewer officers than the local dog catcher departments.

If gun owners voted single issue like the abortion voters, Dems would lose elections.
