Maybe you just define "poor" differently from me. And it is true that there are probably a few "poor" people who own AR-15's. But my point was that is was definitely NOT a fact that all gun control laws are about taking guns away from poor people..
Sorry to de-rail a thread that is not supposed to be about debate.
Generally, it goes wic/ebt-> smokes/booze/drugs -> higher priced items (guns, vehicles, etc). Some people just skip the benefits and make meth or grow pot and trade that for firearms or whatever.
I don't think gun control laws are about keeping firearms from poor people,but I would guess there's as many ar-15s below the poverty line as there above it.
