44% of people responding. You can bet the level is much higher if they consider the felons, bangers and people that didn't respond that have firearms in the house.
The poll I enjoyed, and I don't have a link nor do I have the exact number, but my recollection was there was enough guns in America to have three or so in every home if I remember right.
Now, if we can get all of those legal gun owners to join up with the NRA and the other gun lobby's, we would have a force that could not be defeated.
