Time to break free of traditional political ideological labeling and divisions. Time to abandon old, divisive sociopolitical labels like “liberal” and “conservative”.

A new political party based on a vastly, commonly held virtures lends itself to embrace over 66% of Americans, and it clearly embraces progressive principled thinking. In the most ideal American sense of unity, a political party should not be able to be defined or placed as “to the left” or “to the right” of where the Democratic or Republican parties currently are. Just let it exist organically based on present-day principled thinking. The American Progressive Majority.

    Nearly half of all American households have a gun. 44% to be exact.

    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:

    Thirty-two percent of U.S. adults say they personally own a gun, while a larger percentage, 44%, report living in a gun household.

    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.
