I heard it only protects my right to hunt, and only if I am in the military, militia.

Correct?

Good lord that was slanted crap.

Though I will say one question I got wrong because I assumed a district court was at least marginally competent on firearms. I should have known better.

Missed three also.

Normally I’d pass that on to buddies, but those vermin don’t deserve any extra hits as they benefit from them.

I thought it was a silly test. I didn’t even bother finishing it. Those questions with answers like:

a)Yes
b) No
c) probably not
d) impossible to know

were just stupid, IMO. A waste of time.

When we ALL miss the same 3 questions, that is proof that the quiz is BS.

13 & 2. Questions 10 & 11 were definitely bogus. Also, how are “Probably not” and “Impossible at this point to know” not the same for Q10?

It's mostly right but on a couple of key issues it blatantly refers to opinion rather than fact. The survey answers are actually wrong... they are calling the way the WANT it to be a correct answer.

There should be a fine for propagating falsehoods like this.
