The town in Georgia where everyone has to own a gun
64% Informative
Kennesaw , Georgia , was the first US city to require residents to own a gun in 1982 .
The law was passed in response to Morton Grove , Illinois , which became the first city to ban gun ownership.
Similar gun laws have been passed in at least five cities, including Gun Barrel City , Texas and Virgin , Utah .
In Kennesaw , gun fandom has a broad reach that extends beyond gun shop owners and middle-aged men.
Cris Welsh , a mother of two teenaged daughters, is unabashed about her gun ownership.
She hunts, is a member at a gun club, and shoots at the local gun range with her two girls.
City council member Madelyn Orochena says the law is "something that people would prefer not to advertise".
