“The study published this month said that more people are citing protection as a reason for carrying a firearm than sports and hunting. In 1994, the study’s authors found 46% of firearm owners said they owned guns for protection, and by 2015 that number rose to 65%. By 2019, nearly three-out-of-four firearms owners (73%) said they owned guns for protection.” – Just the News, November 27, 2022
