Yeah, that's the ticket. That's why the donkeys became pander bears about Second Amendment rights.
GD right it does.
“5 percent say neither”
What, pray tell, do these people think that the Amendment says?
What part of "shall not be infringed" is confusing? I find "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" completely and totally clear, but that's just because I can read. Illiterates may reach a different conclusion, as demonstrated by the Democrats.

As we all know gun control is a myth..........criminals do not follow laws. All such harms is law abiding working class Americans who follow all laws even when they disagree with em !
Gun Control is about human control. That’s what the jackasses know and want !
I have carried in some form or manner since the age of 16 when my grandfather gave me a 1911A1 as a birthday gift. I carried as a career serviceman and a deputy sheriff for a while and now in my job with uncle sugar again. Not a socialist rat alive that will ever disarm me “completely” with their seditious efforts. If they do such they become viable domestic enemies that are fair game under the oath I took to protect and defend against such .......foreign or domestic.
just my opinion of course.......stay safe !
Once the court makes a ruling, what could a candidate do to thwart the ruling if they disagree with it? Their personal opinion at that point has little if any value.
I think even the most basic question was not answered. The second amendment provides nothing. The Constitution does not grant rights, it sets limitations on the government with respect to our rights.
What the public favors is less violence, and most believe erroneously that more "gun control" equates to more "safety" for the children and whatnot.
If people understood that gun control is about control, not crime, that number would decrease to include only the socialists that really just want everybody but the government disarmed.
This would indicate that two-thirds of Americans are able to read and comprehend concise and proper English grammar. I would take that to be a good thing but it does give one pause; why are one-third of Americans unable to read and comprehend that same concise and proper English grammar?
I moved out in '74 when I joined the Air Force and only go back to visit my Mom, who also listens/reads the mush they espouse up there.
Oh, really? VPC and the Brady kids have been saying it's 70% in favor for, oh, how long now?
Was trying to make sense of the stmt
‘Even though many U.S. adults believe the Second Amendment
does support an individual’s right to bear arms, the public
does not feel this right should be achieved without some
gun control.’
and the words of my FIL came to mind. He thinks he should be allowed b/c theres no trust issue but his neighbors...well they’re all suspect and should be reined in. Yes, he of the Royal We party.
The majority of Americans can’t locate America on a map.
It's not 'or', it's both. There is a semicolon between the two clauses indicating they are independent clauses, not either being dependent on each other.
And with regard to gun control:
- A relative majority of U.S. adults – 49 percent
Okay, since when is 49% a "Majority"? Even with new math (sarc) it still take OVER 50% to have a "majority". The word they want is Plurality. Do they assume their readers are to STOO-PID to understand that word?
In any case this poll means squat. There's more to the 2nd Amendment than just what's written, to wit...
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Case closed!
oops, almost forgot... You, yeah you 'public officers' - Like Bloomie, Di-fi and Chuckie Shooooooomer, per the honorable George Mason you have NO RIGHT to own a gun, hand em in pronto 'public officers'. You have till midnight to disarm!
