A recently released Pew Study shows the majority of Millennials (born 1981-1996) oppose gun control.

The study was conducted January 23 to February 9.

In the study, Millennials opposed gun control by a margin of 50-48 percent. Although it's a small margin, WAMC Northeast Public Radio points out it is "roughly at par with the attitudes of older generations."

Something fishy about this poll. Or maybe not. Still pretty close numbers in opposition. Now if was 75-25, I'd feel better. 75 pro 25 no of course.

The ones around here do oppose gun control. But vote democrat anyway.

Same logic a Jewish person would use in voting democrat.

You forgot American Jews who hate Israel too. Self imposed guilt? I don’t know, it confuses me.

By their very nature polls are stacked to agree with the pollsters premise. POLLS are generally USELESS, worth ZERO.

Fishy?! The fish has been dead for more than three days, and, like +3 day visitors, they STINK!

Millenials get more of their information from the net. If they get a little interested in the subject we win, because facts and logic are on our side.

That is why the other side relies so heavily on emotion.

Think about it. Who goes whacko and shoots up the place and gets put in the news almost always - liberal / Democraps. Do young thugs carry guns? Why of course they do. But I suspect a lot of the votes come from young people whose fathers took them hunting and to gun ranges where they learned to enjoy shooting a gun. They know its the shooter that shoots another human being not the gun itself. Now if the government was really sincere in their disarmament efforts they would disarm themselves but you won’t see that so it tells me their true intentions and motives.

Considering that most of these youts have had a lifetime of instruction from progressive educators, I’m shocked at how good the numbers are.

They will grow up, eventually.

I never was much of a fisherman.
I prefer my sea life ON ICE to be bought at our local grocery store cumfish/meat market.

Old fish and visitors STINK after three days.

Well, all that hospitality will come back to you, eventually.

Or as I used to tell my students: "You'll be rewarded in a later life. :o)
