36. ah
So you, apparently, think that

"<permit holders> have a much higher percentage of firearms than the general population"

means

"a much higher percentage of permit holders than of the general population have firearms".

Me, I usually try not to make guesses about what people are attempting to say, and prefer them to just come out and say it. This person failed miserably in the attempt.

I read it as meaning that permit holders have more firearms than non-permit holders, and of course there is absolutely no basis for saying that at all.

Now if only *any* of that were relevant to the point in issue.
