About one in five adults say they’ve been threatened with a gun at some point in their life according to a new survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation.
The report, published Tuesday, looked at 1,271 Americans’ experiences with gun-related violence and incidents across the U.S. between March 14 and 23, 2023.

More than half of Americans have dealt with gun violence in their personal lives
A majority of Americans have felt the long reach of the nation's gun violence epidemic in one way or another.
That's one of the takeaways from a national poll released on Tuesday by KFF, a nonprofit that focuses on health care research.
Specifically, the poll found about one in five people report having a family member who was fatally shot. The same share say they have been threatened with a gun. One in six said they have personally witnessed a shooting.
