Despite the anti-gun rhetoric from their leaders, it appears a large chunk of Democratic voters value their right to keep and bear arms.
The Wall Street Journal revealed on Thursday that gun ownership among Democrats is surging, and gun groups composed of liberals and progressives are skyrocketing.
According to the paper, the reasons behind the rise center around Democrat concerns over violent crime and basically nonexistent ‘right-wing extremists.’ And at least two surveys provide proof this is a real phenomenon.
The Journal cited a 2023 survey by the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions in Baltimore which showed that over half of the Democrats who bought guns since 2020 were first-time buyers.
