Plawsworth,
Firearm ownership in this country is widespread indeed. The reasons for owership are quite varied. The I would guess that most are owned for hunting or target shooting as their primary use, with protection a distant second. I base this on myself and everyone else I know who owns a firearm.
The second amendment of our constitution is often refered to as the amendment that gaurantees all the others. It is the final resort aginst despotic goverment abuse.
