Then, all the runs on guns in recent years, all the record-setting sales, were done by people who already owned one? Good. Let the gun grabbers remain unarmed.

Maybe they’re talking about guns owned by criminals?

According to a “Poll”. Are we supposed to be honest with questions that are none of their business?

Or just the number of people willing to write in a survey they have a gun in their house is down....

May be more a sign of less trusting giving out that information than actual decrease ownership. That would be my case.

This is, quite simply, fabricated and insufferable bullsh*t on the part of some liberal *sshole indulging in wishful thinking.

It has NO basis in fact.

That is correct. Virtually nobody on my street has any firearms at all. Nope, not any. :>}

Or perhaps under the current gun grabbing tyrants in power the number of households who don’t want to admit there are guns present is at an all time high.

Mine just exploded in a colorful fireball sending chunks of aluminum, shards of glass & smouldering plastic, droplets of melted solder and little pieces of copper wire in all directions.

This is going to take forever to clean up!

It would appear that an incredible surge in boating accidents has resulted in a record amound of lost firearms over the last few years.
