    I'm not against leftists having guns but I don't think I'd ever get one myself. Don't think I'd ever feel comfortable. Aren't you significantly more likely to end up shot if you own a gun?

      There's probably a demographic-related third variable at play here (e.g. membership in a gang)

        I'm kinda skeptical about gang affiliation as a solid statistic just because I could imagine that lots of data on that would originate from LEOs/Feds with thin justification in many cases.
