As for "all those guns", polls of various types indicate that somewhere between 30% and 40% of all American households contain at least one gun. http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisf...ership-us-data If we assume the lowest number (30%) and assume that no household has more than one gun (certainly not true, but taking the lowest possible numbers), that would mean that there are currently ninety million (90,000,000) privately owned guns in the United States. To someone who doesn't like guns that number might be truly alarming. To the gun-owner the next question would be "And how many of them were used to shoot somebody last year?" The simple fact is that most people are responsible citizens and have no desire to kill anyone else, even in the heat of an argument. Quote:
