    Would love to see the LGBTQ+ community arm them selves. Be hilarious to watch the right wingers scrambling over each other to quickly get gun restrictions in place

      They are, and 99% of gun owners want them to be armed. A armed minority is harder to oppress. Check out the pink pistols and NAAGA. A ton of range owners who are white focus heavily on bringing in minorities to train them and get range time in. You antigun people are so damn brainwashed, that you think that only 55+ year old white males who love Jesus and busch beer own firearms.

            There are more guns in the country than there are people. And only 32% of American adults own guns. So if only a 1/3 of adults, who make up 2/3 of the population, own guns and there more guns than people, then the average gun owner owns 5 guns.

            I would say owning 5 guns is close to hoarding but maybe not quite there. However, that’s the average. I know many gun owners who only have 1 or 2 guns. That means there are a lot of people who own a lot more than 5 guns.
