Online (imperfect) poll of FReepers by Daniel1212-please take part [go to link). I think this (non-commercial, internal) poll can help discern the make up of conservatives here

said, ""Do you support the militant actions of Jan. 6 against protesters or any by them?""

You need to define who you're taking about. The FBI bad actors that where clearly militant by braking glass and knocking a security guard down when the security doors where unlocked from the inside OR are you talking about those that walked between the velvet ropes being careful not to harm anything.

18. Do you oppose the legalization of same-sex marriage, and requiring all states to validate the same?

So "mainly or strongly"..."if not all it does" allows for something other than Yes or No? What other answers to these are yes or not in the context to which they refer?

Lets take #18 first:

That should have been two questions:

1. Do you oppose the Legalization of same-sex marriage?
2. Constitutionally, do you believe laws opposing same-sex marriage are a states-rights matter or a Federal issue?

You are describing Trumpism. Trump was never a conservative.

It’s OK to like and support him…but he is a populist.

"Agreed that this poll has lots of issues—muddies waters rather than clarifying them. Many of us are equally concerned with moral issues and financial issues—and some of us think they are related to each other. Hint: A moral society would not support financial fraud or electoral fraud."

Which is why the poll uses words "mainly to be" a social conservative, whose main "(not singular)" concern is the moral....

Just contacted the Mods to get this thread pulled. You people aren’t paying attention, you all are just diving in not seeing what this guy is doing. Can’t you all see the ID on the Straw Poll blog is the SAME as the one for the OP on this thread??????? He’s just pimping out FR for hits on his own blog to get more dollars, and you are helping him do it.

You may be missing the point, only a professional pollster would have rigged the questions that way.

"Do you support the militant actions of Jan. 6 against protesters or any by them?"

You’ve succeeded in making this question worse. What are you really trying ask here?

[SoConPubbie]

17. Do you support the violent actions of Jan. 6?

So "mainly or strongly"..."if not all it does" allows for something other than Yes or No? What other answers to these are yes or not in the context to which they refer?

This is the worst trap of the bunch because it leaves open who committed the "violent actions".

So, there should have been several lead in questions before #17, and the list I am providing here is not comprehensive. I am sure others can and will provide additional contextual questions.

1. Do you believe it was Trump supporters who committed the Violent actions of Jan. 6?
2. Do you believe the FBI was involved in a setup of creating a narrative of Trump supporters committing Seditious Violent acts on Jan. 6?
3. Do you believe that Antifa, and other left-wing agitators, committed almost all of the Violent actions of Jan. 6?
4. Do you believe that the Capital Police allowed, without any kind of resistance, citizens to enter the Capital Building on Jan. 6?
5. And finally, the question asked in the Poll: Do you support the violent actions of Jan. 6?

This is really stupid and has nothing to do with Conservativism and looks all bible thumpy.

"Why do you want to “discern the makeup of conservatives here?” What are you intending to do with the results? Who has access to the results?"

It flowed from here, and I increasingly see conservatives divided , esp. over Ukraine, and thought a poll would be good. No one has been shown the poll except for those who read this page which provides it, and no one has access to edit it than me.

[daniel1212]

A poll of its own!

[one guy in new jersey]

“17. Do you support the violent actions of Jan. 6?”

__________

What on Earth is this question all about?

Fail.

[one guy in new jersey]

“...support militant action...”

________

Are you high?

[higgmeister]

I shall pass on this one.   Your questions are very flawed.

[higgmeister]

You mean you do not know what this refers to, or deny that any occurred?

Go soak your head Danny!

[Boomer]

No. Just effing NO!

[higgmeister]

Pushing hits on you own blog. Get off FR with this selfish nonsense.

Waiting for bumblegummer to make an appearance 5,4,3,2,1...

said, "strongly support Putin"

"Show me one. " Are you serous? I spent lots of time with supporters of such. So far with only about 90 poll takers, 20 vote for Putin. And on FR posting, just a quick search for now:

Putin is defending the border of his country. Biden is not. Putin is defending the heritage of his country. Biden is not. Putin supports energy production for his country. Biden does not. Putin supports the aspirations of all Russians. - https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4042744/posts?page=45#45

Vladimir Putin’s Battle Cry Against The Deep State - https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4098937/posts?page=1

There will no Ukrainian government aligned with the West. It would be unconscionable for Putin to allow this to happen. Putin or any Russian strongman to come will fight NATO, if necessary, to keep NATO out of Ukraine. Any unbiased eye can see that. - https://freerepublic.com/focus/news/4042491/posts?page=23#23

"Pushing hits on you own blog."

Where? The poll site has nothing to do with my site or blog.
