Obviously, too many low information voters are unaware of the attempt to confiscate registered so called "assault weapons" in New York City(NYC). It began with registration of long guns in the mid 1960s. In the early 1990s so called "assault weapons" were banned in NYC. (One of the advantages of being born in the nuthouse that is NYC is that you witness their idiocy up close and personal.)

74% Think Americans Have Constitutional Right To Own A Gun

This link is found in "RELATED ARTICLES" at the source. The left is at war with human nature, common sense and the U.S. Constitution. The RINOs are right behind the left!

It is more like 75% but this is rasmussen... and his polling as of late is absolutely crazy IMHO.

THEY WOULD DO IT TODAY IF THEY THOUGHT THEY COULD GET AWAY WITH IT. DOZENS OF RAT POLITICIANS HAVE SAID AS MUCH.

Dirty little secret from someone who grew up in the Bronx:

All those gun bans that NYC has are ignored by many restaurants(in the kitchen), bars(underneath), store(under the counter) as well as many in the City.

I’ve seen some serious arsenals in NYC that would make a good Texan green with envy.

unaware of the attempt to confiscate registered

It was more than an attempt. They ended up confiscating all of those that had not been gotten rid of or rendered inoperative or turned in to police. As I remember there were approximately 45 people who didn't comply with this unconstitutional seizure. Of those about 35 - 40 were paperwork errors, but about 8 or so were arrested and their fireams seized

Be very suspicious when a president or the Congress tells you that they will “never” do something.

The income tax was never going to be levied on the Middle Class, only The Rich, and it would never exceed 3%. Lyndon Johnson said Medicare would cost $9 Billion a year, and now it is 100 times that amount. Obama says the government will not take your guns, but it will keep a registry of who owns them. I’m sure there will never be a crisis in which they will appear at your door to collect your weapons, as they did in Hurricane Katrina.

Whoever trusts government is too gullible to be taken seriously.

This would be an ill-advised move on the part of the government, as it will be met with great, how you say, resistance. Our evil, low-IQ rulers in Washington and some of our state houses have foolishly decided to provoke the wrong group of people with this issue.

The 2A is a guarantee to the people that we retain the ability to overthrow the government in the event it becomes a tyranny. As such, no law infringing on the right to bear arms can be instituted. That is obvious (can’t have the fox guarding the henhouse) but it was enshrined into the Constitution just in case.

All attempts by government to make law to infringe on our natural right to have guns is treason. These “lawmakers” have sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution. When they self-servingly attempt to restrict our rights, they are traitorous foxes. If we let them do it, we become the chickens.

If just 4% would start heading to DC, we could retake the nation.

“44% Think Government Effort to Confiscate All Guns Likely”

Hmmm. 65% of everyone I know think it’s likely that we’re about to confiscate all government weapons.

I’m not that worried...

The day may come when they (government) decide we are not capable of posessing these weapons...

We will see, at that time, a re-tooling of those in our community to address this issue...
