Obama did WHAT -- Howie??
Your OP mentioned a "surprising drop in the Western states".. How come they didn't mention the HUGE uptick in the Eastern states?
The numbers I cite are from 2013-14. Those are older.
Doesn't matter, you're numbers are shit too. No one answers those polls truthfully. It's none of their business.

Why do you lie Howey?? Your OP has NO DATA from 2013-14.. The link I found was from March 2013. And there is NO data there as you state from 13/14...
As far as "self-reporting bias" being a REAL EFFECT in polling, you are also being dishonest. Because if the topic of the poll had been self-reporting of LGBT status -- you would be flipping crap burgers about how irrelevent "self-reporting" on polls can be.
All in all --- lying and dishonesty doesn't overcome the misrepresentations in your OP.....
Background checks by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, considered to be the most accurate means of tracking gun sales, plunged by a third in January compared to the year before. There were about 1.66 million background checks last month, and nearly 2.5 million in January the year before.
The findings contrast with the impression left by a flurry of news reports about people rushing to buy guns and clearing shop shelves of assault rifles after the massacre last year at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn.
There are all these claims that gun ownership is going through the roof, said Daniel Webster, the director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research. But I suspect the increase in gun sales has been limited mostly to current gun owners. The most reputable surveys show a decline over time in the share of households with guns.
That decline, which has been studied by researchers for years but is relatively unknown among the general public, suggests that even as the conversation on guns remains contentious, a broad shift away from gun ownership is under way in a growing number of American homes. It also raises questions about the future politics of gun control. Will efforts to regulate guns eventually meet with less resistance if they are increasingly concentrated in fewer hands or more resistance?

My apologies.. I inadvertantly left this thread closed
while cleaning and merging similar threads on this topic.
This one is on gun ownership -- not gun sales and it was
my intention to reopen it. Bumping it for discussion.

I see...you don't like the results so they just gotta be wrong! Dimwit.
Must be hard to get a date when you're such an angry malevolent prick all the time!
good grief. is there anything they don't lie about?
Howey:
Confusing statistics on Gun Sales with statistics on number of households owning one fireearm just show how mentally vulnerable you are to being abused by logic, reason and numbers. One question bears no relationship to the other. And this entire thread crediting Obama for a reduction in OWNERSHIP is simply not supportable. You're wasting everyone's time .
Republican!

So when are you going to ban yourself for not citing a source?
As more and more Americans decide to leave law enforcement to those qualified to do it and as guns are removed from owners who thought they were responsible gun owners.
Thanks Obama!

Obama has taught me, if asked an uncomfortable question lie. So if i was asked in a poll today, i would say, i don't own a gun.
