As the nation reels from the deaths of at least 34 people in three mass shootings within a week in Gilroy, California; El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, debates about guns are heating up.
The recent spate of shootings and others before them have the Second Amendment, gun laws and gun control, including the number of guns in the United States, coming under fire.
How many guns are in America and, specifically, in Michigan? Those are hard numbers to pin down.
“It’s a patchwork of data that is incomplete,” said Dave Chipman, a senior policy adviser with Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, who is originally from metro Detroit and spent 25 years as an ATF special agent.

You don't have a right to "know" ANYTHING about private individuals' lawful possession of arms.
You have the right to seek information, but you have no right to "know". |

TO REMEMBER |
| You are bound to meet misfortune if you are unarmed because, among other reasons, people despise you....There is simply no comparison between a man who is armed and one who is not. It is unreasonable to expect that an armed man should obey one who is unarmed, or that an unarmed man should remain safe and secure when his servants are armed. In the latter case, there will be suspicion on the one hand and contempt on the other, making cooperation impossible. — Niccolo Machiavelli in "The Prince." |
