We have had record guns sale since Obama has been elected. I personally know at least 20 people who have purchased a gun, most have bought multiple guns, who never had guns before. Most of these suburbanites come from families who haven’t owned guns in a couple of generations.
This is total BS anti-gun propaganda. The only place where gun ownership is declining is in the states that illegally ban law-abiding citizens from owning them.
Plus the number of CHL’s has gone through the roof in recent years.
Here in Illinois we are "allowed" to own guns, just not carry them. Visit this place some time:
Pekin Gun and Sporting Goods 281 Derby St Pekin, IL. (309) 347-6060
Be prepared to park on the street as the parking lot is always jammed full and has been that way since zero's first election.
I bought a pistol there about 5 years ago, it's a good sized place but was literally packed with customers.
