Here in Illinois we are "allowed" to own guns, just not carry them. Visit this place some time:
Pekin Gun and Sporting Goods 281 Derby St Pekin, IL. (309) 347-6060
Be prepared to park on the street as the parking lot is always jammed full and has been that way since zero's first election.
I bought a pistol there about 5 years ago, it's a good sized place but was literally packed with customers.
There she is again.
I am transfixed...
Who here would tell a pollster the truth about whether or not they owned guns?
I’ve been getting 2 or 3 of these calls a week recently. When I talk to them and try to find out who they are, they hand up on me. Anyone know how to actually catch these guys to report them?

“Ann” and the people she works for should die in a fire.
Proof of the worthlessness of the no-call list and enforcement thereof.
Brainwashing our children AGAINST guns starts early in their education process. The day will soon be upon us when the population firmly believes that “Guns are Evil”. (It is getting very close). I do believe the day will come when we no longer will be allowed to own guns for that very reason.
Heh, look at that... a MASSIVE drop between ‘93 and ‘95.... what could that mean /sarc
It is pretty damn obvious that right after they passed the first AWB people were MUCH less inclined to fess up on a survey. I am betting the actual ownership level is WAY over 50% it is probably well over 60%
I wonder whether the statistics on boating accidents have risen as much as gun ownership has declined?
Thanks for the ping!
1) We have more "households" now, what with all the new ways people can live. Singles, single parents etc.
2) Most importantly, who in their right mind tells the truth to a random pollster asking about guns in your house?
After the last election, every single person at work that didn't already have an Ill-i-noise FOID, put in for one. Every single one. I know two people have already acquired firearms. ("Show and tell!")
I’d never lie to a pollster. /s
