Almost 100 million guns sold in CA last year, and we only have about 40 million people, so I would say people are definitely buying guns.

Fake News has taken flight again!

If you're law abiding,a citizen,and not out of your ever lovin mind there's no reason why you should be denied access to a firearm.

Stats show that minorities are more likely to be victims of crime than others.And there's a certain type of criminal who targets women.

Conventional wisdom held that the sharp rise in gun sales over the course of Obama’s presidency was supposedly driven, at least in part, by the threat of gun control . . . Why Republicans keep buying guns at high rates is still a question. It surely doesn’t fit the mantra that “fear drives gun sales.”

Given the behavior of the Ctrl-Left, the reason conservatives bought millions of guns under Obama still applies. It's a general fear of evil people, not just a fear of evil people restricting our firearms purchases. As a smart man wrote long ago: "We hold these truths to be self-evident . . ."

Anecdotal stories right after the electionsuggested that people — particularly minorities — might be buying guns out of fear of a Trump presidency. The National African-American Gun Association saw a 7% increase in members just over the Thanksgiving weekend. NBC News contacted gun storeowners who reported seeing up to four times as many black and minority customers. The Liberal Gun Club says that its membership is up 10%.

There are people with sufficient arms and ammo in the Ozarks who can pretty much slay every minority to the third and fourth generation.

Good that women and minorities are getting into the game, but they might want to just keep their shooting choices to close-in personal protection and not insurrection.

I sold a gun to a flaming liberal at work. He now says he is in Florida and he does not care, castle doctrine and he shoots the intruder. lol

He still says we do not need 100 round mags... just like I do not need 500 pounds of rice but why should to the gov ration me?

But now that he is in with a gun, he is starting to talk like a real man a bit more, understanding the stakes. He says the 10mm Delta Elite was a loud head turner at the range and seemed pretty proud of impressing “red necks” lol

I’ve bought a few since his election ... getting them before the prices go up. Of course the media bias would not consider that a factor ...
