Some of the best shooters I have ever known have never been to college, much less graduated. Some of them have, but not nearly as many.
That's not because "stupid people shoot guns"; it's because college-educated people typically have interests that exclude gunsport or other exposure to and contact with guns. How many beat cops graduated college? How many construction workers? How many factory workers and soldiers and other good people with respectable blue-collar jobs?
