[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I'm French. In France the people with guns are hunters and know how to safeguard their weapons. It seems terribly intrusive to ask point-blank about guns, especially between families who are educated and presumably care about their small children. Note that we don't do playdates willy nilly with people we barely know. [/quote] DC has a 26% gun ownership rate (170,000 people) and about 0.5% is legal (4,500). Those 4,500 people and their homes are probably much safer to be around/in than any demographic. Certainly safer to be around than the large proportion of DC that has arrest records[/quote]
