This is a phony and misleading quote. The article says 44% of people live in a house with a gun but the number of people who own guns is lower. Here's the actual quote:
I think, when people overtly lie about this kind of stuff, it's not worth arguing anymore.
I literally said 44% of american households own a gun, which is exactly in line with the qoute.
At no time did I imply that meant 44% of all American adults own guns. It wouldn't even make sense to, considering the comment above links to information to the contrary.
If that's what you got from what I said, then you need to check your reading comprehension.
That being said, the 44% of those people, regardless of whether or not they own the guns, are less likely to want more gun control.
Not sure what more you want.
