Interesting numbers on gun ownership in the USA.

" In 2014, 31 percent of American households reported owning a firearm, down from 47 percent in 1973, according to a report from National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago.

Gun ownership has become more concentrated as a result, with a small sliver of gun owners owning a growing segment of America’s firearms inventory, according to the Harvard Injury Control Research Center. These gun buyers have come to be known as “super owners” and one study, conducted by Harvard and Northeastern universities, concluded that about half the guns in America are owned by only 3 percent of the adult population, with an average of 17 firearms each. "


31 % household gun ownership, down from 47%.

"Super" owners being about 4% if adult population.

But note the intentional bias in the statistics, 31% of HOUSEHOLDS vs 3% of POPULATION.

That 3% is probably about 8% to 10% of HOUSEHOLDS.

The Bloomberg article reads like it doesn't know whether it is a business and investment article, or an anti gun article. Which isn't that surprising considering the source ...

Also any attempt to try to smear Trump ...

I agree, can call that article another liberal POS smoke screen.. 3% my ass... record number of new women shooters in the US..along with record number of firearms sold and back ground checks during the Barry presidential years.. a number that increased every year ..

Agree with your thoughts and insight.. bias numbers to feed to the sheep for their consumption..

Be willing to bet all 200,000+ in november were not bought by 3%
