They fact when he was just throwing out a percentage and said 1%, and yall are going at him for that .5% is what makes this board great


Less than 1% isn't the same as 1.5% dude.

Now this deserves to be called out Holy math education batman


For it to be less that 1%, the NRA needed about 2 million less members

Oweo knew roughly the population of america when making the guess, so that is not the variable that needs the adjusting

Let's assume GCS is deadset at 1 percent

5,000,000/(0.01) = 500,000,000

What's the population of the US again?

What percentage own a Yeti and which demographic is purchasing them? How many of those overlap each other.

Maybe if this blows up in their face, I can finally justify buying a Yeti. Assuming the price tumbles.

The population is actually 326,317,674. With that said, I apologize for not being accurate. I said just under 1%, I quickly did it in my head, but I should have used a calculator to double check. The difference between just under 1% and 1.5% really has an impact on my argument.

It didn't mess with your argument, which I agree with, but it made you look like you thought the US population was much bigger than it really is

I really think this was totally overblown and am a bit disappointed in how the NRA handled it.

And I'm not even a YETI baw. More of an RTIC baw.
