    | The number of civilian-owned firearms in the United States has surpassed the number of people, according to a report released on Monday.  With more than 393 million civilian-owned firearms in the U.S., there are just over 1.2 firearms for every American as of year-end 2017, a Small Arms Survey report concluded. In other words, each American can have their own gun, with 67 million guns left over, noted The Washington Post.

    | Guns are what they call "durable goods", not so much with people. |

    | Given that everybody needs, at a minimum, a combat pistol, a combat rifle, a shotgun, and a .22, we have a way too go. |

                      | As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight. And it is in such twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness.  — Justice William O. Douglas, US Supreme Court (1939-75) |  |  |
