There's a whole spectrum of gun owners; from the proper and careful to the arrogant, improper and obsessive.

There's the one-gun owner. Usually a rifle or handgun. Kept locked away. Rarely loaded; but the owner knows where the bullets are. (S)he has let the scene of him/her loading that gun and defending him/herself go through their head a few times.

Then there's the Hunters; Usually men, usually conservative, usually #religulous. They are rare; they're folk who really do hunt and fish not just for "sport" but for food. They own a few guns; mostly rifles. They own a boat and lots of fishing gear. They like the taste of wild duck, deer (venison) other "game", or very fresh fish.

Then there's the political extremists. The paranoids. Those who want to not only protect their family, but prepare to be attacked by government officials. They let scenes of him and his family being attacked pass through his head (rarely women).

These are the families raising the mass murderers. These are the ones who "stockpile" weapons. These are the bump-stock buyers. The automatic and semiautomatic weapon buyers.

They do "war games" They run through fields and see how many targets they can hit in a record short time. These folk are almost unique to America. Something about our history encouraged these folk. These are the ones to address....

....not the hunters, nor the one-gun owners.

Here's a great interactive map of where you can find these folk...

BTW; SPLC is a long standing group that supported many freedom fighters. I've supported them in the past...Consider sending them a contribution.
