(1,558 posts)What's with the white suburbanites???
Everyone is buying guns.
I was in Oklahoma, and stopped into a store in a mid-size city. Turned out to be a predominately black area, and guys were open carrying all over the place.
My wife finally broke me free of a group of guys - we would have chatted into all hours of the evening. Guns, holsters, bullets, we tried to cover all the usual topics in such a short time...
The suburbs are definitely not crime free (although I don't live in the suburbs) but my very rural county has as low a violent crime rate as many European nations we all admire.
We are AWASH IN GUNS up here. 7 guns per man, woman and child.
The only gun problems I am aware of are knucklehead suburbanites who do not carry every day shooting each other during hunting season, mostly out of a lack of familiarity with the firearms.
This is not Europe.
Like the old lady said when the Trooper asked why she had so many guns in her car..."Ma'am, what are you afraid of...?"
"I'm not afraid of a fucking thing."
