I don't think this is accurate. According to this, libtardia Hawaii has more gun ownership than my gun friendly Indiana...
 
I wonder where they come up with these "statistics"..

There is no requirement to "register" a firearms purchase here in GA. More than half of mine were thru private purchase, and I'd probably be happy with just those.

The town next over from me actually has a law requiring the "head of household" to possess and be competent in using a firearm. Don't think that has ever been enforced but guess what the crime levels are..
Kennesaw?
 
Guy I got hired with got a call years ago. They were sent to a "traumatic injury". Ole boy working on the front end of his car, with it just on a jack. It came off and landed on his legs. It had him mashed to the garage floor, but not the whole weight of the car on him. He was just stuck. He was talking to the guys from the engine and ambulance, calm and embarrassed. My friend looked about 8 feet from the car, and saw two brand new jack stands, sitting on a shelf.

He said "what are you doing saving these? Don't want to wear them out?"
 
Oh I've done stupid shit alright, just not that particular stupid shit. I'm a grease monkey from the start, been an aircraft mech 33 years.

I wanted to do that, my buddy who was one told me he'd kill me if I did. Wanted to be a machinist too all the old guys told me every reason it was a bad idea.

I shouldn't have listened.

Edit- it's been brought to my attention there's jack stands, I didn't see them at first on my small phone screen.

Ignore them lol
Yeah, but the car isn't touching them. A few years ago, two people in a neighboring town were killed in separate incidents over the summer due to doing dumb shit like this.
 
I saw one in the wild yesterday. We had to turn the truck around. GF thought it was a pool cue after I call it out as a sword amd bet me dinner on it. Then she had a very disturbed look on her face, when I'm laughing. I convinced her to stop so I could ask where the basement dweller got it at. I was pretty sure it was an umbrella by then.
 
What is the issue he has jackstands

Oh haha, Can't see it without zooming in on my phone.

I don't have one of those tablet sized phones. Shut up and pretend 😬

lol, you still missed the joke. I only have a smallish phone too, but can zoom in nonetheless. He has about for Jack stands, but not one was even close to supporting the car. It appears as the one closest to being useful is still at least 4 inches from touching anything.
