Gun Control & RKBA

Johnston: actually, only GSS actually says that assuming it is true, it is simply going back to 1960s levels

Observe the magician Johnston as he mumbles abracadabra and changes the goalposts simply by blinking.
No, Johnston, what you clearly replied to was my saying this, post 125: .. 3 reputable polls that show gun ownership RATES have fallen over the past 20 years: Gallup, Pew, & GSS..

Why do you suddenly backpedal with 'going back to 1960's', and try to weasel out of what you clearly tried to mislead with? I clearly titled post 125: "3 polls say gun ownership rates have fallen since '93.."

How can you sit there & lie, when the graphs I posted showed all 3 - galllup, pew, & gss - saying gun ownership rates have fallen since early 1990's?

Johnston to my above assertions: there is no evidence to support the claim that gun ownership has fallen, other than one poll

1) Gallup: .. even Gallup's numbers show a decline in gun ownership since the early 1990s, from 54% of households in late 1993 to 43% as of this fall.

2): General Social Survey (GSS) .. data show a substantial decline in the shares of both households and individuals with guns... 1973, 49% reported having a gun in their home.. In 2012, 34% said they had a gun in their home or garage. .. personal gun ownership 1980, 29%.. 22% in 2012

3) .. Pew has tracked gun ownership since 1993, and our surveys largely confirm the General Social Survey trend. In our Dec 1993 survey, 45% reported having a gun in their household .. 2013 Pew survey found 33%
