Most people in the US do not have guns, either. But the people who do, tend to have a bunch. This is what drives up that ownership rate. They’ve turned it into their personality.
And they ones who do that are typically right wing and see its use as reasonable discourse. There’s a difference from someone owning a gun because they like to target shoot and see it as a tool as opposed to those who see it as a way to express their power openly.
i wish. I’ve got like 60 living relatives on one side of my family who all have at least three firearms.
and like, living out in rural anywhere out here, three firearms is reasonable. a handgun for 1-5 feral hogs, a long gun for 30-50 feral hogs, and a shotgun for 30-50 feral geese.
then you gotta have spares and a child for reloading. why do you think their families so big. Gran was 2 of 11.
German here: Most of us do not have guns. The ownership rate is ~19 out of 100, while in the US it’s 120 out of 100. And we’re also not allowed to carry it with us without good reason. Being scared of a blue haired Aldi cashier isn’t one of them.

It’s weird how averages work for both countries. It’s not like one average is more indicative than another.

120 out of 100?
More guns than people. Some people own lots of guns, most people don’t own any.
Oh. I thought it was just a binary “has a gun or doesnt”.

Yes. Some people have multiple guns.
