    The Number Of Guns Owned By The Average Ammosexual Has Doubled Since 1994 — To EIGHT




    Picture an episode of Sesame Street. The Count does his thing — 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 — eight guns! That’s how many are currently stored, safely or not, by the average ammosexual in America today. Second Amendmenters have always felt that “one is not enough,” apparently living in a fantasy world where they can grip multiple firearms at once, and because the NRA has injected into them a sort-of god complex where they and they alone can stop every single crime in progress with their magical Freedom Stick, Rambo it up anytime a “bad guy with a gun” rears his ugly head.


    Unfortunately, the mythical “good guy with a gun” often finds himself robbed of his weapon at gunpoint, using unnecessary force against a minor threat, almost shooting himself in the head, leaving his boomstick lying around and getting Second Amendmented by a “good kid with a gun,” losing his gun on the roadside, or falling into a fit of rage and murdering a preschooler in cold blood. Despite the NRA’s claims to the contrary, numerous studies have shown that simply keeping a gun in the home increases the risk of a firearm-related death greatly, while the benefit in doing so is minimal, at best


    The number of gun-owning households in America has decreased over the years, but thanks to the NRA’s propaganda, the die-hards who insist on filling their homes with deadly weapons have really stocked up over time. In fact, when compared to 20 years ago, there are now twice as many guns in far fewer hands, according to data from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives........


    I own 4 my wife owns 1. Does that count as 5 ?? What if there are 8 in a family and all own 1 for hunting, does that count as 8 ?? I'm a bettin your links don't account for the individuals in a household. I call bogus stats to make a story that doesn't exist.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Ammosexual? What are you 12? I'm guessing you spend a lot of time running around calling people "teabagger" as well.

    The simple truth is I could have 1,000 firearms and it wouldn't be any of your damned business.

    I didn't write the headline, but it is neither here or there to me. People like buzzwords, you know like "libtard" and what not .

    If you want to own 1000 guns I guess that is your legal right, just as it would be the rest of society's right to observe you as a dangerous nutcase.

    Let's see, the NRA head took out full page ads after Sandy Hook warning his customers, er, audience, that they needed to buy more guns and ammo because roving gangs of Hispanics were going to rape and murder their womenfolk, as the country drifted toward liberal induced rioting , crime and anarchy. The dip$#@! said all this even as violent crime rates across the board were nearing decades long lows.

    I don't trust people who buys more guns because an immoral asswipe like Wayne LaPierre asked them to.
    No one is required to justify owning firearms or to explain why they own a certain number of them. It's simply none of your business. Period.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Long guns are collected because of their rarity and potential value.
    The article says the average number of guns has doubled in 20 years. Were there not collectors and different size guns 20 years ago ?

    I believe in the second amendment and believe that as many guns as there are, as many owners as there are, the poster you called out is correct.

    I have a semi automatic but never saw it as the "phallic symbol" so often brought up by Democrats.
