If 6 in 10 favored bringing back slavery in America, but enslaving the Jews this time, the far left would probably approve of that too. Our God-given human rights are not up for a vote.
I wonder where they did the poll - among the staff of the NY Times?
6 out of 10 Americans can go to hell as far as I’m concerned.
Yet, on the other hand we see CCW being passed in almost every State.
Even if true, they still won’t be able to muster enough congresscritters to pass it or enough states to ratify an amendment.
“Military-style, rapid-fire”
Um... full-auto is already essentially banned.
Ooooooh. A push poll. How convincing.
Ooooooh. A push poll. How convincing.
Two other polls showed a majority opposed to bringing back an assault weapons ban nationally. But this poll and another show the result flipped.
As near as I can tell, it boils down to whether or not the phrase “military-style” is used in the poll question. Guessing that’s the buzz word used to scare people into getting the propaganda poll results they want.
Don’t count that poll as factual because AP seems to be the arm of the democrats and the talking points. They call the people they want responding, I suspect. This overreach is all over the net. This global BS free gun zone is out of hand.
Lord. That means about 10 percent who did NOT vote for Obama agrees with him on this issue. We are in deep trouble folks.
The whole point of this country is: individual rights are not subject to the whim of an ignorant/bigoted majority.
Here is the poll:

6 out of 7 Indians on a bus might be in favor of gang rape. Thus is the moral problem with majority rule.
The Constitution exists to protect the minority view, not flag on the majority.
LOL...if the polling is that favorable, then they shouldn’t have ANY TROUBLE AT ALL getting a ban through Congress.
...so why no talk of it?
The difference is that, while most people might agree that the soap used in dishwashers harm the environment (or at least did, back when the soap worked), it’s doubtful that most people would also agree to let the government come into their house and remove their dishwashers.
IT DOES NOT MATTER BUT THIS IS A LIE. SHELVES IN EVERY GUN STORE IN AMERICA TELL THE TRUTH. POLLS LIE... THEY LIED TO US IN 2012. IF THEY WANT TO ABOLISH THE SECOND AMENDMENT THEN THERE IS A CODIFIED PROCESS TO FOLLOW TO AMEND THE CONSTITUTION. WE GET TO DRAFT CHANGES TOO... AND WE CONTROL 27 STATES. WE CAN CHANGE AMERICA BACK... AND THEY KNOW IT... AND THEY WILL NEVER FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION... SO WE MUST REMAIN VIGILANT AND ENGAGED AND WE MUST NEVER BACK DOWN... EVEN IN THE FACE OF CERTAIN DEATH. DO NOT FOMENT VIOLENCE... IF IT OCCURS... END IT.

We all know liberals own guns too yet most are in favor of gun control. Lefties have gun rights too. They just don’t want you to have guns.
Might I suggest Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela?
How many of the 6 have any idea what the current gun laws actually are? How many know that an “assault weapon” is mainly just a scary looking rifle? How many know that if you elimated statistics on “urban youth crime” America is a pretty safe place?
These are the poll questions I wanna see !
