You'll Never Guess How Many Guns the Average Gun Owner Has

We Americans love our guns -- and apparently, we love them twice as much as we used to. We first twigged to this trend in 2015, when an astounding story on The Washington Post's Wonkblog site revealed that the average number of firearms owned by a "typical gun-owning household" had roughly doubled between 1994 and 2013, to 8.1 guns per household. The trend has only gone up since.

Bull****!

However, I always lie when asked about my guns, say sumptin' about my pellet rifle. Maybe the number of households with guns has doubled and the number in my house has quadrupled. You'll never know. Neither do so called pollsters.

I don't own any and I don't know anyone who does. If they say they do own one or more, I think they're lying.

8.1 Guns? Who owns only 8 guns? I own waaaaaaaaayyy more than 8 guns!
 
 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
The supposed quietude of a good mans allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms like laws discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside...Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them... — Thomas Paine, I Writings of Thomas Paine at 56 (1894).
