Bellevue also has one of the highest percentages for gun ownership I had recently found out.

Um,highest percentage of gun ownership? Source? Compared to ALL other cities in the US? I find that ridiculously hard to believe. Perhaps one of the higher rates in the Puget Sound area or even Washington state, but in the US? No way.
