I Want Full Parity and I Want it NOW

I just learned there is a critical shortage in America. We need a government program to bring us to the proper levels.

As it stands today, and I hang my head as an American, we only are 90% armed in America. Only 90% of Americans own a gun.

This is a travesty. We must be fully armed and ready to fight off the invasion of the whomever is invading. So, Democrats that hold congress, let's have a bill right now to right this wrong. Let's have gun subsidies for those who can't afford them.

Better yet, lets have gun subsidies so every man woman and child in America has two guns. I mean, you can't shoot the same gun all day now can you?

Then I would feel safer, and so would you. I want every thug in the USA to believe that the next little old lady he tries to hijack her car from or steal her purse is packing a Glock Nine and knows how to use it.

Then you would see crime drop off the edge of the earth.

You really would, and you thought I was kidding.

Sigh - Gene, once again you are using numbers WRONG. Still only about 40 percent of HOUSEHOLDS have one or more guns but each of those HOUSEHOLDS has several guns on average, such that in the country, there is one gun owned equal to 9 / 10 of the people. This by NO MEANS means that 90% of the population owns guns. Or that 90% has liberal views on gun ownership. 40% is closer to one third than to one half, to put it in simpler terms. Within those households, if there are two adults, only ONE of the adults might actually OWN the guns, pushing the rate of ownership somewhere below 40%. Sloppy sloppy sloppy.

There is also no correlation between gun ownership and crime. There are a lot of other things that make crime rate go down waaaaay before gun ownership.

Facts don't much get in your way, do they?
