    I’m not sure you can even vocalize what you’re trying to say here.

    The facts are just not in your favour.

    Key excerpt:

    45% of Republicans and GOP-leaning independents say they personally own a gun, compared with 20% of Democrats and Democratic leaners.

    You’ll find that all available information says similar.

    Republicans have a much higher percentage of gun ownership than democrats.

    It’s not just that they own more guns per individual. They have more individuals with guns.
