I'd wager that the number of extremely responsible gun owners far outweighs the number of idiots with guns. You'd also be surprised at the large number of people you come across in your daily life that own a gun(s).

About a third of adult Americans own a gun.

Side note: Going to a range and shooting stuff is pretty damn fun!
