I take issue with the one I got wrong.

[Jackpine Savage]

I got one wrong as well. The one about assault weapons, machine guns, and shoulder fired missles.

I also missed one according to them.
I disagree with their conclusion.

Same thing.

The "perhapes shoulder fired missle" is a superfluous answer.

I got 11 of 12 correct, however I'm claiming complete BS at this time. I put "Impossible to know at this time" for question 10. "Probably" is presumed to the be the correct answer. To me, in the context of this question, they mean about the same thing. In fact, the two could be used together to form a completely logical supposition: "It is impossible to know today who will win the first race at Aquaduct next Monday, but it is probably going to be XXX". Given the fact that SCOTUS has begun to normalize the Second Amendment back to its original meaning why would any weaponry be unreasonable or restricted except by price?

It is a horribly framed question with a more than questionable "correct" answer.

Back to the Reading Room, boys. Oh, and again, with all due respect.

Yup, me too. Pretty sure people can own machine guns. Not sure what an assault weapon is but I think I might have one.

[AFTERMATH]

Yeah... I got #10 wrong too - even though I'd read this, and knew I was being set up... Silly me couldn't help but to charge right in, on principle!

I'd like to know the percent of quiz-takers that got that wrong. Perhaps the answer to the question could be found there.

11/12 so by their training of thought shoulder fired missiles are guaranteed?

Still not as "interesting" as the citizenship test they have a link to.
