They must have counted all the guns, including those stockpiles in the
government armoury.

training they take their firearms home with them.

That's right. Joe Blow Second Amendment/NRA loons shouldn't have guns.

Really? Then you are saying militia members shouldnt have guns?

Aren't militia members prone to gun crimes? Aren't NRA members all gun
toting criminals? I'm sure statistics will back me up here...

What's this now, Tom? You ready for facts all of a sudden?

Really? 1/4 of the households in the US have had at least one
suicide? You do know that half the households have one or more
firearm in it..right?

That would make 25% of every household..right?

Now given that there are over 150 MILLION gunowners (closer to 180
million) who own about 400 MILLION firearms...you are saying that
15,000 is the same as 75 MILLION? Is that your claim? Really?

Or did you simply once again..**** in your hat?

Half of all gun owners commit suicide? Thanks for the facts, I was
ready for that! Do the guns kill them without warning?

Well, the anti-gun people will argue that the statement "guns don't
kill people, people kill people" is totally and irrefutably wrong,
wrong, wrong! So I assume that if you don't either chain a gun to the
wall or lock it up in a sort of jail cell, that they will suddenly
leap out into the middle of the room and just start blasting away with
no warning.

That's truly a total misreading of that statistic, plus a complete
suspension from reality.

Real meaning of your cite: More than half of all gun fatalities are
suicides.
