Nate:  Here's the definition of omnipresence for you.  "m·ni·pres·ence ˌämnəˈprez(ə)ns/ noun noun: omnipresence the state of being widespread or constantly encountered. "the omnipresence of the Internet in society today"" That is certainly appropriate to the status of firearms in America.  I'm quite comfortable with the use of the term in the context.  IMO, your pedantics are simply mistaken.  Feel free to confirm the definition of the term.  regards, Gary Crum
