ChapotraphouseThese stupid things always rely on people answering honestly.
If a stranger asks me if I own guns my answer is fuck no. I own many guns, but I won't fucking tell strangers about it. Come on, people.
Genuinely everybody talking this seriously is a fool, get some fuckin stats and real human interaction experience weirdos.
GA isn't gun owning, interesting. Having lived in rural GA, Atlanta has to be pulling those numbers way down.
Vermont for the win!
Also, how the fuck did Kansas beat Colorado in Yoga?
This is anti-alaskan propaganda
Bears don't usually bear arms, but they do do yoga
Gun-Owning Liberal, Kansas
Kansas has a town named Liberal
Ohio true neutral
Lmao they can't escape
lmao at the category naming. "neither prepared nor relaxed"
Texas leading that category is
Hold on fucking TEXAS has less % of gun-owning homes than all those states?
the several times ive visited and family i had there gave me the distinct impression that, despite it's constant mythmaking, it's a more repressive place with a broad, servile underclass of minorities where a small minority owns an absolutely deranged number of guns while most people are just going about their lives trying not to get locked up or shot.
certainly, its history as
- the only state that seceded TWICE to preserve slavery
- the entity that premeditatedly exterminated its abolitionist and free thinking communities
- the most aggressive policers of their own internal history to forget and destroy a rich tapestry of racism, cowardice and sniveling betrayal of the human spirit
has had an impact on the general perception of what "texas" is, both within and from outside.
Loosely related but until like 6 or 7 years ago Oregon gun guys were always like "yeah our gun restrictions are looser than Texas and those states, but keep it low key so nobody catches on"
Yeah it's been bullshit here last 5 years or so
key word is "household" gun ownership, you have a handful of loons with whole armories and a lot more people with no guns
I was thinking it might be because Texas doesn't have a central database of firearms. Ownership data comes from a varied amount of sources like public health surveys or voluntary reporting. But I don't know if other states do that.
Also the demographics of Texas are way different than the image presented. The average Texan is a working class Latino person trying to survive, and then there are also suburban white folk who own entirely loaded gun safes.
i guess it is a big ass place
Probably all them suburbs in the desert
How is Texas in the bottom half of gun ownership rates? It’s chud central.
It's because it's pretty urban. There's lots of guns in those cities, but most households in an urban area aren't gonna have a gun.
The inverse is Vermont. Very few chuds, but lots of rural gun owners.
And the winner of most peaceful and flexible state is… Seriously, I can’t tell what it is since they slapped the label on top of it..
Big Rhode's Island.
I guess they finally stopped havin’ the mafiar in Providence
Actually, a lot of people in WV do yoga and are armed; do with that info as you will.
but are they stupid enough to answer a phone call from a stranger and tell them about their guns?
