PEW; 44% of American Households Own Guns

And Hillary Clinton is threatening to take them away with her antigun bullshit.

PEW Poll: 44 Percent of All Households Now Have a Gun

According to Pew, 44 percent of all households have a gun, versus 51 percent who said they did not. This same poll showed that 58 percent of respondents viewed gun ownership as something that brings safety, versus 37 percent who believe such ownership increases risk.

The Pew poll follows more than a year of mainstream media contention that the breadth of gun ownership was actually shrinking, even as gun sales were soaring. For example, a March 2015 CBS report used a General Social Survey to suggest gun ownership had fallen to a point where only 32 percent of Americans lived in a household with a gun. The CBS report was followed by an October 2015 Washington Post report that sought to explain the record number of background checks by suggesting the same gun owners were simply buying more guns.

Wonder how many lied and said they didn't own one.

That is an interesting fact, but it is less than the percentage of black children raised in a single parent household.

I doubt that Clinton would want to go down in history as the president who was responsible for this nation's second civil war and millions of deaths. But then again, you never know.

I'm actually surprised, since I assumed almost every household has a gun.
