Just about anything that can be counted (cars, TVs, planes, computers) can fit the scenario of the public having more than the federal government.

Context for OP: Some people try to stir up fear mongering by saying the government is coming to take our guns away. Based on the stats I quoted, how likely do you think that is to actually happen?

Dog - I would imagine that a large number (greater than 50%) of licensed firearm owners would turn their guns in/over if instructed by the government...have nothing to base this on other than my opwn personal feelings about what would happen...I could be wrong by as much as 100%...

Right now the Feds have more drones than the U.S. Americans, and that is a problem.

The American public owns more cars than the government, but the government owns more car makers than the American public!

Just read an article about the trend of gun purchases by Americans. More guns are being purchased than ever before. Do you think we're looking at the beginning of a gun bubble?

What's the subject of the bubble, the price of guns?

Most definitely the price of guns (and ammo, and magazines). The bubble has priced me out of the market for now... and just when I'm about to get my tax refund frown

The Swamp
You gotta love Georgia:

The city council in a small north Georgia town voted Monday night to make gun ownership mandatory — sort of.

Council members in Nelson, a city of about 1,300 residents that’s located 50 miles north of Atlanta, voted unanimously to approve the Family Protection Ordinance. The measure requires every head of household to own a gun and ammunition to “provide for the emergency management of the city” and to “provide for and protect the safety, security and general welfare of the city and its inhabitants.”

Not that every household must go out and purchase a firearm.

The ordinance exempts convicted felons and those who suffer from certain physical or mental disabilities, as well as anyone who objects to gun ownership. The ordinance also doesn’t include any penalty for those who don’t comply.
