A new study led by epidemiologists at Brown University found that among firearm owners, less safe storage was associated with higher blood lead levels in children.
I lived in the US for 10 years, and I gotta tell you; all the 2A “necessary to the security of a free state” BS I heard juxtaposed against the utterly embarrassing, and cowardly inaction I am seeing now is, disappointing to say the least…
Hell I’m surrounded by suburbs and live in a good sized city but have a small farm. I’ve had animals killed by raccoons, hawks. eagles, foxes, coyote, loose dogs and opossums that I know of. I’ve also seen black bear, and obviously we see lots of deer and other wildlife. That’s all in the city. If you drive an hour out you get wild boar too, sometimes I help hunt them because they’re so destructive.
I somehow forgot about hogs. They’re a significant issue here, and they’re super dangerous.
My step-father was charged by one before. He shot it point blank in the forehead with a 9mm pistol, and the bullet went in the scalp, traveled around the skull and out the back. All it did was stun it long enough for him to grab a rifle out of the gator.
But I think you’d fall in the definition that puts the number at 20%. That one is basically, “not in a major metropolitan area.”
Yes, but what percentage of people actually need guns?
When the fascists are taking over? Every man, woman and child.
“taking” over? 😂

More than you’d think.
Still enough to be the exception cases in a ban rule
Somewhere between 14-20% of the US population, depending on how rural is defined.
