You're a Racist

Michael Moore said it, I believe it, that settles it. [Read]

But only if you're white.

I call BS on that claim, and that is backed by a survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press:

http://www.people-press.org/2013/03/12/section-3-gun-ownership-trends-and-demographics/

"There is no definitive data source from the government or elsewhere on how many Americans own guns or how gun ownership rates have changed over time. Also, public opinion surveys provide conflicting results: Some show a decline in the number of households with guns, but another does not."

According to Pew Research Center survey data "Roughly three-in-ten (31%) whites own a gun, which is much greater than the rates of gun ownership among blacks (15%) and Hispanics (11%).

Gun ownership also differs substantially by region and type of community. In the Northeast, 17% say they personally own a gun as do 21% in the West. Higher percentages in the Midwest (27%) and South (29%) say they own a gun. Across all regions, people living in rural areas are twice as likely as those in urban areas to own a gun (39% vs. 18%)."
