I have five handguns, two rifles, and a shotgun, so I am exactly on the average. I bought thee firearms years ago, and have had no yearning to buy more in recent years. Of course, I don't believe the president wants to confiscate my guns just because I'm white, so I may not be typical. Or maybe I am typical of the average gun owner. The attention goes to the crazies and their rhetoric, not to mention their open carry stunts and defiant rallies.
