    Thirty percent of U.S. adults say they personally own a gun, so in actions like this I would say that the Democrats are working really hard to alienate at least a third of Americans, and ownership rates are similar between Repubs and Dems, so they are chasing away their own not just Republicans....

    That is a solid plan for Election........LOL

    Well, I read that as clever anti-gun rhetoric because Democrats would see that as one third of Americans will get their asses kicked if we just keep hammering away at the gun control theme. But it's wrong for being such oversimplified pab.

    Do you mean, what percent of Americans personally own guns or what percent have a gun in the household? Big difference. Even CNN, from whom you got your vague statistic, gives its typical nonsensical BS on this topic. To wit:

    There's a gun for every American. But less than a third own guns. We don't know how many people own guns.
    Oh, okay then, CNN.


    Since Jesus is no longer anywhere in the picture at CNN, the question becomes "Will God forgive them?" and the answer is, probably not but they probably don't give a $#@!.

    30%? That's Trump's base.

    Why is it 56% of all Americans, including NRA members, favor banning assault weapons?

    The reason nobody knows, by the way, is because it is nobody's business.

    Maybe I misunderstood you, but in no way was my post Anti gun, he claimed that Trump was alienating 98% of Americans, I pointed out that 30% say they own a gun so chances are that those 30% are not against what Trump was saying, rather they would be against the Dems Gun Grab plan.
    I did not get any data from CNN, the data was from a gallup poll that they conduct every year, it also shows that about 43% of households have guns in the US. It also acknowledges that many gun owners do not claim gun ownership so that the numbers could be higher
