"There are a lot of people out there who think they are so important or they have so many enemies, or both, they believe having a gun is necessary for protection. Some actually compare themselves to an important figure like President Obama, and assert if he does not think they should have guns for self-defense then he should not have armed bodyguards protecting him," explained TNA Senior Researcher Dick Schneider.

"Unfortunately, the same far right wing individuals who think they are so important and have so many enemies they need a gun for protection are only having their delusions being reinforced by conservative propaganda outlets. Fox News and others are telling these people their paranoia is well-founded and patriotic," stated Schneider.
The TNA study was quickly condemned by Americans who think they know stuff and think they need guns for self-protection, as well as the conservative propaganda outlets that manipulate their poor reasoning skills and feed them dangerous anti-government misinformation.
