To put this into perspective consider that, as of December 27, Gallup found that 54 percent of Americans have a favorable view of the NRA (38 percent unfavorable); meanwhile, across the country there are an estimated 100 million gun owners; more than eight million people have concealed-carry permits; about four million people are members of the NRA; and, according to Gallup, 47 percent of American households have guns in them; in fact, from 2009 to today the number of Democrats with guns in their homes rose from 30 percent to 40 percent.
To put this in more human terms, consider that as this is being debated, Americans continue to use guns to protect themselves. For example, on January 5 a Georgia mother of two retreated to a closet in her home as an intruder kicked in her front door. Police were on the way, but they didn’t get there fast enough. When the intruder opened the closet door where the mother was hiding with her children she used her handgun to shoot the burglar. She then escaped with her children.This mother proved once again that gun rights are women’s rights—the Second Amendment is also about equality.

Was mir besonders gefällt: Bundesagenten (FBI, ATF, und wie die Storm Troopers alle heißen mögen) würden sich beim Versuch, die restriktiven Bundesgesetze in Wyoming durchzusetzen, strafbar machen und könnten eingesperrt werden.
