    These 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.

      There’s a lot more opportunity for outdoor/active reaction in Colorado. Even in the urban areas, there are way more parks, bike paths, etc. In Kansas indoor yoga studios have less competition for your free time

          Texas and California are respectively more liberal and conservative than people are led to believe. The main difference is which party has gerrymandered the state.

          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”

          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.

      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.
