Law-abiding Americans are buying guns at a record pace, and most tell us it’s for self-defense. Democrats, however, are far more likely than others to believe it is too easy to buy a gun these days.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that nearly one-out-of-four Americans (23%) say they or someone in their immediate family has bought a gun in the past year. Seventy percent (70%) have not, but six percent (6%) aren’t sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Only Democrats would be alarmed at Americans exercising an enumerated fundamental right.
Not a "penumbra" imagined right, an ENUMERATED fundamental right.
Only Democrats. Now, why IS that? |

| Good guns are a store of equity. They have no expiration date, their economic value tends to increase over time. If taken care of they never will be worth nothing. That is unlike anything else you, your wife, or girlfriends buy in your home. The most important reason is they can save your life. Therefore keep buying all the guns you can afford. |

TO REMEMBER |
| No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
