If you don’t one have stashed in every room, every car and truck you own then you don’t have enough.

I suspect that there are quite a few people with a revolver or shotty tucked away who always answer surveys “nope, not me!”

My answer is the standard "Break into my home some night and you'll find out". None of my docs have asked- yet.

Well, I suppose it depends on how many bad guys you have after you. Like this guy.

How about comparing the number of Oldsmobiles owned in America with Teddy Kennedy’s ability to drive???

IF only 37% ‘own guns in America”, I say that many people did NOT tell the truth to that poll.

Besides-—since such polls are conducted with phone calls & those numbers can be recorded & traced back to the owner, WHY would I answer that question in the first place??????

every white person is a racist, right?

Not at all. Don't let the loudmouth black leftists convince you that most black people think that way. We don't.

As an adult, I have yet to meet a black person that wasn’t a racist. I work in a professional environment, yet, every black person I have known eventually came out as a racist, from a VP of Engineering that would never invite a white person to his Super Bowl parties to the fellow engineer that was hoping Obama would lead a “bloody revolution”. I thought I had friends with several blacks, only to find that wasn’t the case.

I had black friends as a child, but not a single one as an adult.

I'm sad to hear of your experiences. I can only surmise that you haven't known all that many black people in your adult life, and of those you have known, most were the ignorant sort.

There's good and bad in every sub-group of humanity. Most cannot be pigeon-holed into any one stereotype. You may never meet them, but there are millions of blacks in this country who don't hate you because of your race.

Reminds me of the cartoon where a guy is buying a new gun at the gun store and he and the sales clerk are laughing it up because the guy’s wife asked him if he were going to sell his old one.

I am going through that drill today, but in my case, am going to try and unload the old one at a gun show - 45 ACP Hi-Point carbine.

Reason? The new one (TNW AREO PERCISION ASR 45 ACP in black) as it takes Glock magazines which gives me a greater capacity:

The numbers say there should be at least 1.2 million blacks that want nothing to do with the racism being shown lately. I wish I could have met at least one of them.

OK. I’ll stop saying I’ve never met one. I’ve met one. Howdy!

Howdy to you too, friend.

I’m a black man who’s about America, and all that encapsulates. I’m not the only one, by any means.

I would be great to hear black Americans step out, create web sites, whatever it takes to shout down the racism. A million or more people can make a lot of noise.

"What exactly is “Armed to the teeth”?

I picture a pirate, carrying about 1/2 dozen pistols, and topped off with his dagger held in his teeth.

What would be today’s equivalent?"

-----------------------

A guy wearing a MAGA hat, carrying a mini-gun, dagger in teeth. Kind of like the eagle in this picture, just more so:

Never saw any number in the Constitution quantifying permitted number of guns, so there’s that.
