Poll on Nonsensical Gun Ban at USA Today
Gun Watch ^ | 7 December, 2013 | Dean Weingarten

Posted on 12/06/2013 6:57:30 AM PST by marktwain

USA Today has a pair of opinion pieces in the December 3rd edition.



One, "A truly plastic gun ban: Opposing view" argues that the ban was a bad idea to begin with, and should be allowed to lapse. There is a poll at the lower right side of the article with the following responses:

Strongly agree and Agree: 80%

Strongly disagree and Disagree: 19%

Don't know, 1%

Total votes were 237 this morning.

The USA Today view:  Plastic guns' Wild West: Our view, which pushes for a stronger ban, has the following responses:

Strongly agree and agree:  30%

Disagree and Strongly disagree: 55%

Don't know, 4%

Total votes were 192 this morning.

The links allowed me to vote when I went there this morning.

TOPICS: Business/Economy; Government; Politics; Society
KEYWORDS: banglist; freep; freepthispoll; guncontrol; plasticguns; poll
The poll shows what I have come to expect. Of people who are interested, there are 3-7 times as many second amendment supporters as there are those who wish to infringe on the right to keep and bear arms.

USAtoday polls on their anti-gun editorials. A two-fer

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. (multiple votes using multiple internetz devices are allowed!) And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)
