Really?
When I was 6 I moved from the Chicago area to Oklahoma and I'd certainly think Oklahoma could easily qualify as 'southern United States.' I lived in Oklahoma until I was 30 and then moved to Texas (which certainly qualifies as 'southern United States'). That being said, the first time I spent the night in a house with a firearm was when I was 31 (and even then, it was because I happened to be dating a security guard). The idea that everyone in the south has a gun is a stereotype and honestly isn't true at all. You'd be surprised how many southerners don't use guns.
