Time to pile on! Thanks to Ex-Soldier for this one!

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Allowed? Heck it should be required!

it is the 2nd Amendment that protects all the rest and what freedoms we have been able to retain.

A better question would be; should Democrats be allowed to vote while brain dead!?

Happens every election in Chicago. Brain dead, declared dead, about to be dead, or long-dead; doesn’t matter, they still vote and, shockingly, they ALL vote Democrat. Go figure...

Freeped for a Yes.

Finally a poll question written to favor 2A and the people. Using the specially privileged as the example, and wording the question as "citizens".

If ya have a CC permit, who would know if you are armed, anyway?

Dr. Richard Kimble continues to search for his wife’s murderer who was infamously disarmed in a voting incident.

Do they mean a weapon or a gun, or just somebody with arms.
