USA TODAY poll on gun ownership
« on: March 28, 2010, 05:05:14 PM »
This is an email I got yesterday.

USA Today Poll on Gun ownership


 Obama's new Attorney General, Eric Holder, has already said this is one of his major issues. He does not believe the 2ndAmendment gives individuals the right to bear arms. This takes literally 2 clicks to complete.   Please vote on this gun issue question with USA Today.  It will only take a few seconds of your time.  Then pass the link on to all the pro gun folks you know.   Hopefully these results will be published later this month. This upcoming year will become critical for gun owners with the Supreme Court's accepting the  District of Columbia  case against the right for individuals to bear arms.

Here's what you need to do:

First - vote on this one.

Second - launch it to other folks and have them vote - then we will see if the results get published.

The Question is:


 

"Does the Second Amendment give individuals the right to bear arms?"Click below to vote.

It is the same game plan as always with the antis they only cherry pick the first part of the amendment. They never, ever acknowledge the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Guy wrote a letter to the editor in our local paper and cherry picked the same thing. Yes I rose to the bait and fired a rebuttal off. Steve

wrong answer, never will be reported on. Kinda makes it look like our attorney general is the only one who can not read english.
the nation that forgets it defenders will itself be forgotten

I am wondering if maybe the results are skewed, meaning the number is so high because a proportionally higher number of gun owners are responding, beeing as its posted so often on gun websites?

Does anyone have any links to related polls?

Look at the original post again. The link is there ;). But do take notice it is a 2007 poll. The results will NEVER be overly publicized.

 no he is not paying attention at all.. the peoples will is not one of his concerns..
 president is elected to serve the people.. he s trying to change all that..
 history is being made here an now.. i wish the duke was here..its my bet hed arrange a meeting of some sort an get him told in a most public way..then take him to a back room an give him the old fashion,, out behind the gym whipping he needs..
 this mans wants absolute power ,an if allowed a second term ..he just might pull it off..hitler was as good a con man as history has seen ..up to now..slim
 ps so this could be what we get for allowing babies to be killed an our sexual lives to be paraded an perverted
to the max.. so god forgive us an help us turn this thing around..your will be done though....my prayer is for my grand kids father..

  Has he been paying any attention to any polls which disagree with his stubborn Marxist ideaology ?
