If this poll accurately reflects the state of our nation, I guess we the sheeple deserve what we get.

I wondered if there was a question about abolishing the "gun-free zones"... It appears not. But, respondents are against teachers and staff carrying on school grounds. And that's up since 2013.

Wow. Why should school grounds be any different than, say, shopping malls, grocery stores, churches or, any other place where people gather? I wonder if the typical American has ANY idea how many of her fellow citizens are carrying concealed while she walks around in blissful ignorance believing she's in the middle of a giant, gun-free zone. The good news: While the criminals don't know how many are capable of taking them out, they know just about anyone could be.

A) FUX News has swung wildly to the left.

B) According to the polls, there is a 99.99% chance that Hillary Clinton will be elected President in November of 2016.

I favor certain weapon control measures: no private ownership of nuclear weapons, laser weapons, rocket launchers, grenades, rail guns, tanks, or attack helicopters.

Fox news' move to the left is like the frog in the pot of water with the temperature slowly coming up.

Therefore, I don't believe their stinking poll!

Voters prioritize protecting citizens from gun violence over protecting the rights of gun owners.

🐂💩 Stopped reading right there.

The public needs to be educated on the importance of the 2nd Amendment. a flood of TV and Internet informational stories spelling out the reasons our founding Fathers included the 2nd, the fact that the Constitution was written to protect citizens against tyrannical government, to give just an inch will open the door for further infringement, that the real reason for gun violence is not the firearm but because of cultural changes that must be forced and turn back to a civilized society, that it is people with psychiatric conditions attacking the schools, etc. Teach the history of nations where guns have been banned.

The NRA and conservative PAC’s need to spend some money and teach the nation. And do so pronto!

Universal checks = gun registration = gun confiscation = total Communism.

There is a big difference between Registered Voters and Likely Voters. And remember that Fox is not the conservative news organization it used to be.

Last I checked there is a constitutional right to bear arms.
Not aware of a constitutional right to public education?

Three of those responses require clarification.

What does a “Universal Background Check” consist of?

Who decides another’s “Mental Health” status?

What is an “Assault Weapon”?

A Baseball Bat is just a Baseball Bat until you hit someone with one. Then it becomes a deadly weapon, AKA Assault Weapon.

The person wielding the Baseball Bat has not had his Background Checked or had a Mental Health Evaluation.

The same goes for someone using a Knife, Rock, Motor Vehicle or anything else that is not nailed down to injure and kill another person.

Remember, everywhere you go you are surrounded by People who buy into this feel good Liberal Utopia nonsense. People have no idea what Freedom even means anymore.

Word the “poll” how you like and get any “results” you choose.

It’s the oldest trick in the media’s bag. Don’t fall for this crap.

If gun control is a winner, why don’t the Democrats run on it in Red States?
