Poll shows gun control measures Utahns favor, don’t favor in light of mass shootings
Deseret News ^ | 04/01/2021 | Dennis Romboy

"A new Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll shows only 11% of registered voters in the state don’t support any gun control measures. Interestingly, the poll shows a higher percentage of Democrats than Republicans don’t favor any gun control measures, 15% to 9%.

The survey found 65% of Utah voters favor universal background checks, which would require almost all firearms transactions to go through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System..."

KEYWORDS: 2a; banglist; gaslighting; guncontrol; poll
The Church of LDS-owned Deseret News and the NWO Hinckley Institute of Policy want rural gun-owner Utahns to buy the brazen lie that 65% of Utahns are in favor of Universal Background Checks leading to eventual mass gun confiscation.

Keep in mind that this same church just amended their manual to criticize "extreme prepping and survivalism" measures among its members in favor of loving one's neighbor.

Such gaslighting via "poll" is a serious detriment to the ability of many Utahns to go to the voting booth armed with the truth because there does not exist a conservative viewpoint media anywhere in the state. The media is completely captured in Utah to the point that when damaging news is anticipated by the state's rulers, cable news suddenly goes dark at Fox News Corp.

For a lot of things, Utah may as well be MA or CT. Very similar patterns overall. They’re *not* conservative.

What good are gun laws if you don’t enforce them? For instance, why aren’t. Hunter Biden and his sister-in-law/girlfriend in jail for disposing of a gun illegally?

Fear mongering and hard cases make for bad laws.

"One of the House bills, HR8, would close a loophole in gun laws by expanding background checks to those purchasing firearms over the internet..."

It's already the law, numbnutz author.

If you buy a gun on the internet it is shipped to a FFL who completes the sale, including backvround check.
