Hmmm
the US population in 1978.. was 222 million. At 50%.. that's 111 million gun owners
The US population in 2017.. was 326 million. Assuming that 36% is correct that's 117 million gun owners.
Now unless we are using "ultmd" math.. 117 million is still higher than 111 million.
:roll: Now I'll just allow you to review my previous remarks regarding PERCENTAGE of gun owners, and then re-think the relevance of what you are saying about total gun owners.
Yawn.. nope. but I tell you what.. link to the poll and its methods. Lets examine the reliability and validity of the poll and any potential bias. I will await with baited breath on your ability to produce the poll and its methodology.
LOL, can't even define "validity" and "reliability", remember? We established that much in the Health Care thread, back when you were pretending to be a "doctor". I've already posted links to the most most recent General Social Survey and a recent WaPo article which cites multiple recent polls (Gallup, CBS, etc.). But let's not pretend that you are going to "examine" anything. You'll just take the GSS results and live with them.
Sure they are.. that's what UNIVERSAL background checks are. Every time a firearm is transferred.
Geez,....no that is NOT what it means, at all. Read a little. You're just proving that there is nothing that NRA nuts will accept, beyond the ambiguous "mental health" canard.
Hmmm.. one of the last bills to increase mental health access was cosponsored BY A REPUBLICAN. Your level of dishonesty is well documented.
:roll:More deflection. It takes ONE republican to co-sponsor a bill. It requires leadership in both chambers to actually pass a bill. Republican leadership in both chambers killed it. So the dishonesty here is clear (yet again). I said nothing about who sponsorship. I said that republicans JUST BLOCKED a mental health bill from passing a few weeks ago. That is a FACT.
Nope. Look.. even Obama realized that there simply is not the support for gun control that you claim there is.
:lamo Typical. When the FACTS discredit the position of a Trumpster.......he just clings (like grim death) to his delusions. I'm sorry to have destroyed another one delusions, Jaeger. Where did you get this one from, Hannity, O'Reilly or Bannon? lol.
That's funny. The actual evidence showed no statistically significant correlation between the AWB and assault weapons/crime. That's the facts.
Only in NRA-nut world. And you guys don't really count. The facts are that the assault weapons ban of '94 worked, even with it's limitations........and that gun control has worked in every western democratic country that has adopted it. You know this. You just can't acknowledge it because your ego and ideology are involved.
First.. its really questionable on those polls of whether the percentage of Americans owning firearms has been steadily decreasing.
LOL....no it's really not. Your ability to grasp the material is what's "questionable". But that's EXACTLY what I'd expect from an ideologue whose trying to dabble in academia.
